Venomous snakes
In case you read through my diff messages, just thought I'd leave you a note so you wouldn't think I was just being rude. The information on the snake pupils is sort of misleading, as there are a few snakes that are pretty much harmless in the US with vertical pupils, such as the night snake and the lyre snake - and typically if you're close enough to see the pupils, you're probably too close anyway. :)

General information on telling a venomous snake from a harmless one should probably be in the article, venomous snake, instead of within each individual species account. I'd like to work on it with you if you'd be interested in that. I bet we could manage to come up with enough pictures of harmless snakes that are commonly mistaken for venomous ones and do a sort of comparison photo gallery. I think that is the kind of thing that people would find quite useful. -Dawson 06:56, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

J-Lo
Hi, in response to your message, I didn't delete the J-Lo Booty page, i redirected it to Jennifer Lopez, where there is a section dedicated to Jennifer Lopez' buttocks, covering most of the information you added. If you can add anything to that section, by all means go ahead! Jdcooper 15:53, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Sometimes it can be good to split the information into more specific topics, but in general, and especially with a topic like Jennifer Lopez, its usually better to keep all the information on one page. If people want information about Jennifer Lopez's arse, they would generally go to the Jennifer Lopez page first, so we put the info there. If the page ever gets too long (not that i imagine it will to be honest), then we can decide, via the jennifer lopez discussion page, which bit to break out, but until that time its probably better to keep it all in one place, its easier to navigate.

Blowout
I hope you will understand why I removed your name from the Blowout (well drilling) article. Wikipedia is meant to not include any original resource and cite verifiable sources for any facts (as per WP:CITE, WP:VERIFY and WP:NOR). In it's stubbed status as it is now, the general consensus is to not insist on citations, but any expansion of the article would need to cite verifiable sources. Cheers! &mdash; Донама 05:17, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

On apostrophes, "BOP's" is a contraction for BOP is, like for "this BOP's not going to work" --> "this BOP is not going to work" so that's why I don't think it is useful to use an apostrophe after an acronym when you're making it a plural. The problem with this habit is well documented. Also, even if it's common on the oil field, people outside the oil field will want to be reading this article. Common usage on the oil field doesn't make it right. It makes it like jargon that's all. &mdash; Донама 02:58, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Post-Katrina images
Hi. Thanks for uploading your post-Katrina Chalmette images! Might I suggest you upload them and any similar images you've taken to the Wikimedia Commons? There are a good number at Commons:Category:Hurricane Katrina aftermath in Chalmette, and many more in the higher St. Bernard Category, etc. -- at present, the majority are my work; I've uploaded a few thousand I've taken around the Greater New Orleans and surrounding area since I got back at the start of October; there are also some excellent photos by others and I hope we can keep building even more documentation. Best wishes, -- Infrogmation 04:22, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Also, images of the effects on the Mississippi Gulf Coast would be appreciated-- we only have a few so far. I've been meaning to make day trips to visit some friends on the Missippi Gulf Coast and take photos, but alas have been too busy in town to go any further than half day drives to Yscloskey and Slidell. -- Infrogmation 04:40, 14 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Could you please comment if you were the actual photographer of the images in question? Thanks. -- Infrogmation 00:20, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Commons
You need to log in and create a user name seperately at commons.wikimedia.org, if you havn't already. You can use the same user name as on Wikipedia if you like (many of us do as it helps identify who you're dealing with across projects). Once you've started an account there, uploading your own images is pretty much the same as here. Please include a relevent category in the image description when uploading; note Category:Hurricane Katrina has subcategories by subject and geographic location. Feel free to ask any Commons related questions at my talk page on Commons as well. Thanks, cheers, -- Infrogmation 14:06, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your contribution of Image:Jolene Blalock desktop 1920x1200 copy.jpg. However, I just need you to confirm that you took the pictures involved. That is, you physically took the pictures of Jolene Blalock used to make up the picture. If this is true, can you please note this on the image's page and remove the no-source warning. If not, can you please replace the license with a correct one indicating under what license and detailed fair-use rationale you are permitted to use the images? Thanks. --Yamla 14:33, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment: I understand that you have been warned repeatedly about problem image uploads. Your comment above suggests that you still don't understand that uploading copyright infringements is not only a legal  offence against the copyright holder, it also is contrary to the entire goal of Wikipedia as a free content encyclopedia and a potential threat to its continued existance.  -- Infrogmation 00:17, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
