Welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you enjoy it here.

I'm not sure if you remember, but you did an interview on my and my wife's radio show on KUCI in Irvine, CA a bunch of years ago now. Was good to have you, and good to see you here as well. Feel free to ask any questions about this crazy place. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 06:31, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Megalopseudosuchus. Your signature was removed from this article in accordance with Wikipedia guidelines (see Simplified Ruleset #14). --BinaryTed 16:04, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Dino Images
Hello! Thank you for uploading dinosaur images to wikipedia! But, if there is no reason to do otherwise, please upload them directly to wikipedia commons so they can be used on other wikipedias either. --Dudo2 14:50, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

WElcome to WikiProject Dinosaurs!!!
Hi, I'm the self proclaimed head of the wikiproject WikiProject Dinosaurs! I'd like to thank you for joining the project & hope you have a great time during your stay. To tell the truth, there was a need for a girl in the project! Anyway, see the task section on the project page for a list of open tasks & feel free to post on the talk page or slap one of our templates on your user page. If you have any questions, ask me or anyone else (but mainly me.... muahaahaha!). Hope you have a great time on the project. Spawn Man 07:21, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Image licensing
Hi, I'm pretty sure AMNH doesn't want to put images like Image:Sauropelta1.jpg under GFDL, which is carefully written to allow profitmaking ventures. (For instance, people want to make printed versions of WP and sell them.) You'll need to ask them for a specific license, so that the legal bases are all covered. Stan 22:57, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Just wondering would you be interested in collaborating on this project. It includes fossil and living forms except Dinosaurs. Thankyou Enlil Ninlil 01:11, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Dinosaurs
Hi GreyGirlBeast!

There's currently less than 100 dinosaurs left on the Missing dinosaur page. We've come a long way! I was thinking that since there's just under 100 dinosaurs left, and since there are 25 of us signed on for the project, if we each wrote about four articles, we'd be done! Well, not "done", obviously, as many of the articles are in need of expansion. But then we could focus on expansion and other things.

You could take, say, Omnivoropteryx, Ornithomimoides, Orthogoniosaurus, and Orthomerus.

It's just an idea, of course, and you're of course not obligated and can do whatever you like; I just figured I'd mention the idea, and see if you were interested. No harm, right?

Take care, --Firsfron 06:41, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Welcome back from WikiBreak!
Your recent work on Erectopus is most welcome, and was much needed. Your valued contributions lend a lot of creedence to our project, and to Wikipedia itself. Thanks, Greygirlbeast. For your dedicated work on WP, I'm giving you this:


 * You're welcome, and thank you very much! Yeah, I was a little too busy for a time there, but hopefully I'll be able to contribute quite a bit over the course of the summer.--Nar&#39;eth 21:54, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Europasaurus1.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Europasaurus1.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 05:05, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Dinosaur images
Hey Greygirlbeast! I'm not sure you're even aware, but there's a dinosaur image review page here. I guess a lot of the WP:Dinosaurs participants don't even know about it, and I figured I'd let you know: people are practically begging for feedback and suggestions there, and not getting a whole lot. Your advice and ideas, I feel, would be greatly appreciated, and a big help. The advice of a professional vertebrate paleontologist? Priceless. We've got a thousand dinosaur pages with no illustrations, and several photographers and a professional illustrator, all with no real feedback. Helllllp!-- Firsfron of Ronchester 08:37, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Aigialosaurs
Hi - I have taken the plunge and filled a red link, that has been hanging around on Mosasaur since April (Aigialosaur). However, I was fairly well out of my depth and wondered if you could sort it for me. In particular, I note that WP has very few entries that mention aigialosaurs. It appears to be absent from all the classification trees or lists that I have located, under various different reptiles. I assumed you would have some expertise in this area. Thanks - Ballista 05:08, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Svp-banner.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Svp-banner.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Replaceable fair use Image:Hagryphus.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hagryphus.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 15:35, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Non-commercial / Educational only images
Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Nodoceph.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license GFDL-self to license it under the GFDL, or cc-by-sa-2.5 to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use PD-self to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Media copyright questions. Thank you.

Fair use rationale for Image:Mapusaurus1.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Mapusaurus1.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ricky81682 (talk) 09:32, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mapusaurus2.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Mapusaurus2.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 14:25, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Sphaerotholus_med.gif
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Sphaerotholus_med.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Unspecified source/license for Image:Colobymycter1.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Colobymycter1.png. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like PD-self (to release all rights), (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by MifterBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. --MifterBot (Talk • Contribs • Owner) 01:25, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Megalopseudosuchus
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Megalopseudosuchus, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process
 * Unremarkable fictional concept. No secondary sources given. Google shows wiki mirrors only.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

License tagging for File:Colobomycter1.png
Thanks for uploading File:Colobomycter1.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:05, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:NarStanding.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:NarStanding.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

File permission problem with File:User portrait of Greygirlbeast.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:User portrait of Greygirlbeast.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ~ Rob 13 Talk 15:06, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
