File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Biodiversity of Tetrapods by Sahney Benton and Ferry.gif
Thanks for uploading File:Biodiversity of Tetrapods by Sahney Benton and Ferry.gif. 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:54, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

COI
Recent edits to Evolutionary history of life and Evolution suggest that you are pushing a specific paper, or papers. I hope I am wrong about that. Now, Evolution is an FA, and the other is a GA--I propose that in both cases you take it up on the talk page and see if there is a consensus for inclusion, also because edits to both articles left something to be desired in terms of writing quality. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 19:54, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I've asked other editors to weigh in, at Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 20:08, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * You have chosen not to respond or comment anywhere, not on talk pages, not on the noticeboard, not in edit summaries. I have begun to roll back the edits you made that I deem to be gratuitous plugging of publications you seem to be involved with one way or another. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 13:47, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
