File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Paenibacillus genus1.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Paenibacillus genus1.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, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 04:33, 17 January 2011 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk ) 04:33, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

The easiest way to provide this evidence is to follow the directions at Contact us/Permit; someone should restore the images in a few days. --Carnildo (talk) 23:08, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:EshelBenJacob2011.png
Thanks for uploading File:EshelBenJacob2011.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely 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. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

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 also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is [ a list of your uploads]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 10:27, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation
Your upload of File:Bacterial art.png or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

Proposed deletion of Social IQ score of bacteria


The article Social IQ score of bacteria has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "The page appears to just restate what's in a single scientist's paper. All other references are tangential to the page topic. Searching on GScholar shows this term doesn't seem to have been adopted outside the Ben-Jacob lab. Topic is mentioned in some press releases from scientist's home university, but doesn't meet WP:GNG (not covered in independent sources)."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Proposed deletion of Ben-Jacob's bacteria


The article Ben-Jacob's bacteria has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "This term appears to be used in almost no sources, suggesting the topic doesn't meet WP:GNG. Appears to largely be promotion of the Ben-Jacobs lab. Useful info in this article on P. dendritiformis and P. vortex is already also at those articles. Term is only currently used in WP mirrors and in a smithsonian mag article (which is using the phrase as a regular possessive phrase, not as a term for these two species). Not used in any papers, suggesting if the term was ever used, it didn't catch on."
