User talk:Jbswake

Welcome

 * John, I have moved what wason your talkpage to your userpage where info like that belongs. Beware of using your WP:REALNAME too much on the internet.
 * I have also removed your duplicate request on requests for permission. We're volunteers - just because we have not got to yours yet, doesn't mean we won't - patience is a virtue.
 * While on the topic of images, have you read our image use policy, and are you actually willing to release your images to Wikipedia that way. As well, do you think they will be useful on other language Wikipedia's - if the answer to this one is yes, then they belong on WP:COMMONS. ( talk→   BWilkins   ←track ) 23:48, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

Apologies and more information
Sorry about the double posting. I have many images of my fossils that could help out some pages. Should I contact the original 'post-er' to get collaboration or just wait the 4 days. I do not really want to edit other people's information at present. Just add personal photographs to any of the Eocene fossil entries that contain material from our site. I have too many other projects on the go that include writing a book about the McAbee fossils, discussions with the BC Government re the future direction of the site, collaborating the information for us to get a fair deal from the government when the expropriation finally goes through, prepping out photographing the remainder of my collection, and helping Linda, Dave Langevin's widow with cleaning up his fossils in the basement that Linda can not face at present given her on-going grief.

 * Feel free to add the pictures, as long as you're the copyright holder and are willing to publish the pictures under the same CC-BY-SA 3.0 license Wikipedia uses, or the images are released under a license that would allow you to upload them to Wikipedia. Just wait 4 days, make sure you get at least 10 edits to Wikipedia (you currently have 6), and you should have upload access.  Wikipedia is, by nature, a collaboration, so there is no specific need to reach out to the original contributor to collaborate on something you wish to contribute.  As long as it's a constructive contribution, and you go about things the right way (You'll find more information in the welcome message near the top of this page), you should have no issues.  Let me know if you have any more questions.   AndrewN  talk 02:29, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
