Alipore Zoological Gardens

Copy to you: Thanks, for reverting the page. I checked that, you are right, those photographs do not fit for the ‘Alipore Zoological Gardens’ article, those may be used to other projects. I also appreciate for the changes made of the "0064" description. Actually, a lot of photographs were uploaded to Commons by a general caption, so the individual caption could not be made till now. Again, the lead photograph was also been changed, that does not reflects the total environment of the entrance. With regards, -- Biswarup Ganguly (talk) 04:46, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

East Kolkata Wetlands

Dear Donlammers,
The same IP number (71.190.1.109) as the 'Alipore Zoological Gardens' case, also changed by adding ten photographs of the 'East Kolkata Wetlands' article! I found it is over uses of photographs of a same place. -- Biswarup Ganguly (talk) 16:38, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

I just removed them on the basis that galleries are discouraged. Several look almost identical anyway, like this IP is just inserting everything on Commons. In this case also, the descriptions are not very helpful. Thanks for the heads up. Donlammers (talk) 14:38, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
