Class involving improving a Wikipedia article
I noticed your note about a class project (GEOS 4320 course). I'd be happy to send the instructors two copies of my book on editing Wikipedia, if you could provide me an email address. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 20:52, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

EarthScope Assessment
I just reviewed EarthScope for WP geology; while it looks like you know much more about the project than I do, hopefully this will help. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, replying on your talk page, or by writing on the EarthScope talk page (which I'm now watching). Awickert (talk) 17:39, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Crustal Thinning Sequence.png
Thanks for uploading File:Crustal Thinning Sequence.png. 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.
