File sources

Hello Junglenut. Please make sure to provide the full URL to the page where you found an image. Just specifying "iNaturalist", like you did for File:Calamus-muelleri-01.jpg, File:Calamus-muelleri-02.jpg, File:Calamus-muelleri-03.jpg, File:Calamus-muelleri-04.jpg, File:Calamus-muelleri-05.jpg, and File:Calamus-muelleri-06.jpg. I have fixed those files for you, but you should be aware that files without a complete and accurate source may be deleted. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for that, I'll keep it in mind —  Junglenut | talk  05:25, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Geogroup

Hi Junglenut - please do not remove {{Geogroup}} tags, they are far from "useless" (to quote your edit summary). The links to Wikispecies should also be left too. Thanks! - MPF (talk) 11:45, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi, the wikispecies link is duplicated in the wikidata taxobox. As for the geo link, it is supposed to provide information about the range of the species using data from the photos. However in this case, all the photos are mine and represent a very tiny fraction of the area of occupation of this species. Cheers, Steve —  Junglenut | talk  11:52, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

(All bar one of the photos!) —  Junglenut | talk  11:53, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Aye, but there'll be more photos from other parts of the range eventually! It's also a very good way of finding erroneous geocodes (the commonest error is people accidentally forgetting the minus sign for southern & western hemispheres), and for selecting cultivated/zoo specimens to transfer to (cultivated), (captive), etc., subcategories. The Wikispecies link may be a duplicate, but it is difficult to find; keeping it in Commons too makes it much easier to find. Thanks! - MPF (talk) 12:22, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

@MPF Ok, I'll accept that there are uses for the geogroup tag that I wasn't aware of, but I would prefer to see it at the bottom of the wikidata infobox. Re the wikispecies link I am not convinced. I don't believe the link in the wikidata infobox is hard to find - but if I accept that argument then I must also accept that the wikidata and wikipedia links are also hard to find, so should we add little boxes for them as well? I say no, this is clutter. If someone is looking at a commons page and wants to look at the wikispecies page for it, that immediately says they are familiar with the relationships between the sister sites and will know where to look. Someone who is not aware of these different sites probably wont be browsing commons in the first place. If there is no defined policy about the placement of the {{ws}} tag, I will continue to leave it out of pages that I work on. Cheers, Steve —  Junglenut | talk  09:42, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

I have not reverted the page, if you look at the history, you will see that I have only added the link to wikispecies. Saludos.--MILEPRI (talk) 09:30, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

@Adamant1Adamant1, the source page of this file clearly says it is CC-BY. —  Junglenut | talk  04:22, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

@Junglenut: So what? A user can put whatever license they want to on a file when they upload it. Same goes for wherever they got it from. But Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Australia is pretty clear that Australian stamps created after 1974 are copyrighted and I can't image why there would be an exception for this single stamp. Otherwise be my guest and provide some evidence. --Adamant1 (talk) 04:26, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

BTW, just to expand on that. The image appears to have originally come from here here before being reposted on another site as CC-BY. If you read that sites terms here they clearly say that "all images are copyright." The source of the image on their websites says absolutely nothing what-so-ever about it licensed as CC-BY either. In fact there's clearly a copyright symbol right next it. --Adamant1 (talk) 04:31, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
