Pimelea ciliolaris

Hello Dlanglois! I am sorry, your photos in Pimelea ciliolaris probably show some species of Helichrysum (Asteraceae). I do not have a photo of Pimelea ciliolaris. However, as it has been treated as a subspecies of Pimelea octophylla, it should look similar to this. Anyway, your plants do not belong to Thymelaeaceae but to Asteraceae. Regards --Franz Xaver 00:03, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I am also suspicious about your photos of Pimelea brachyphylla. At least these are very different from this. Maybe you photographed Pimelea humilis or P. ferruginea. --Franz Xaver 20:25, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I removed both photos named "Pimelea ciliolaris" from the article. Now they can be found in Plants misidentified. Regards --Franz Xaver 13:37, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

You uploaded this image which you claim to be your own work. On the upload page you agreed to place it under a Free license but did not specify which one. Please do so by replacing the {{OwnWork}} tag with a suitable copyright tag. --Yuval Y § Chat § 23:23, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Done. Thanks for noticing. Callisto 23:36, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Dlanglois!

Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]

[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Please help replace this outdated license

Hello!

Thank you for donating images to the Wikimedia Commons. You have uploaded some images in the past with the license {{PD}}. While this was a license acceptable in the early days of Wikimedia, since January 2006, this license has been deprecated and since October 2008 no new uploads with this license was allowed.

The license on older images should be replaced with a better and more specific license/permissions and you can help by checking the images and adding {{PD-self}} if you are the author or one of the other templates that you can see in the template on the image page.

Thank you for your help. If you need help feel free to ask at Commons talk:Licensing or contact User:Zscout370.

The images we would like you to check are:

• File:Tb brucei.jpg
• File:PicklingCucumbers.jpg
