Crab monkey[edit]

Hi, and thanks for getting in touch via my talk page. The Crab eating macaque could be displaying Macular degeneration, but it could be something else as the eye doesn't always swell up with the condition. REtinal detachment can cause swelling, which could happen with Macular degeneration. It could also be a defect that the monkey was born with, or something that was caused by an injury at an earlier time. Have you contacted the user who removed your edit, to ask why they think it should have been removed, other than what they already said by external symptoms?

Julielangford (talk) 11:51, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

where is the discussion taking place? I will add the little that I know about the condition. Julielangford (talk) 12:53, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Took a look at the link you sent me, and I really don't know enough about the eye condition to propose changes to the wiki. The eye can swell up with retinal detachment that can sometimes be associated with Macular degeneration, but there is also Macular edema, which could also be a possible factor, as well as birth defect, injury etc. I know far more about primates than I do eye conditions :) I have a few vet friends who work in the primate field, I will put out an email to them to ask if they can help to diagnose the eye problem ok. At the end of the day, the image is excellent, even without determining the eye problem, but I will try and find it for you. Julielangford (talk) 17:19, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

spider with ant?[edit]

The picture is great, and it features my favorite kind of jumping spider, Platycryptus undatus. The creature it has caught, however, has wings and I am pretty sure I can see that it has a stinger too. So I'm pretty sure that it is some species of small wasp.

Most spiders do not like to eat ants -- but there are exceptions, even spiders that specialize on catching and eating ants. Wasps are predators that sting spiders and then pack them away, paralyzed, to be eaten alive by their hatching offspring. So I am guessing that this beautiful little spider may have been the hunted at the beginning of this interaction. 4.152.24.84 19:02, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much for the name of the spider. I have been looking for it for some time now with no luck. Regarding the prey, I though it was a soldier fly, so I asked an entomologist to look at it. He id'd the prey as Hymenoptera, formicidae. But if you are sure, then I don't mind changing the description. Thanks again for your assistance :) --Muhammad (talk) 23:03, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File:Lophyra sp Tiger beetle edit1.jpg [edit]

Hi, great picture, but you really need to submit the edited version to QI, rather than move the QI tag to the new version. This would also apply if you upload a new version over top of an existing QI. QI is all about peer review, so it needs at least one other person to confirm that the edit is an improvement. I have restored the QI tag to the original. All versions can be QI at the same time, so I will submit the edited version to QI for you. Great photos by the way :-) --Tony Wills (talk) 09:08, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for that. And thanks for taking care of it --Muhammad (talk) 11:08, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Muhammad Mahdi Karim!
Tip: Add categories to your files
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.

Using the photo Frog vivisection.jpg[edit]

It's a good photo, of course. But you called this photo 'vivisection of a frog', so now it used in articles 'Vivisection' and 'Pain in animals' in en-wiki. But I think it's no vivisection but autopsy - the frog was killed before dissection. And someone who took the file for these articles didn't understand it. If you say it's vivisection (surgery on living animal), please tell me what kind of experiment is it. I know no experiments in vivo with such preparation. Maybe you should rename this file. --Rotatoria (talk) 13:31, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The frog was actually living. It was chloroformed but alive when the dissection was taking place and one could see its hear beating and lungs inflating and deflating. --Muhammad (talk) 13:51, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for answer. It's hard to really kill the frog. Its organs may live autonomically for some hours after brain destruction. Well, formally it was vivisection, but for the frog was chloroformed it didn't feel pain. --Rotatoria (talk) 15:50, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Use of image at The Revival[edit]

Request to use image[edit]

Dear Mr. Karim:

I work for e4TN, an organization associated with the Tennessee Department of Education which is creating online classes. (See https://www.e4tn.org) I saw your images of dissected frogs at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Frog_vivisection.jpg. I request your permission to include your image in several biology test questions. Unfortunately, we don’t have funds to purchase a lot of outside content to include in our courses. If you agree to grant permission, I will be glad to give credit in a citation on the content page where the image resides. Also, with your permission, I would like to modify some of the images by adding labels or arrows.

Thank you for your consideration, and I hope you will be open to allowing students across the state of Tennessee to benefit from the educational value of the images.

Sincerely, Pamela Johnson (pam.johnson@e4tn.org) Course Developer, e4TN

Profile size and activity criterion for Commons:Meet our photographers[edit]

Dear member of Commons:Meet our photographers,

Two issues have recently been raised at Commons talk:Meet our photographers:

Profile size creep
The page is becoming increasing cluttered due to a tendency among some members to make personal profiles, which are unreasonably large. You are kindly requested to consider the size used by your profile and consider if it has a reasonable size. Note that the same message is being send to all members, so it is up to you to use your own good judgement in this. We are not interesting in setting up exact quantitatve rules. It should be a matter of common sense.
Activity criterion
It has been suggested to introduce an activity criterion in addition to the minimum 10 FPs criterion to be included on the list. You are kindly requested to voice your opinion on this proposal.

--Slaunger (talk) 15:37, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Muhammad, thanks for reducing your profile. I agree with your own judgement that it was a little too large, and now it is more adequate. --Slaunger (talk) 16:12, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Using photos from this website[edit]

My professor asked me if I could find a bunch of photos for a (non-commercial) presentation of full-frontal faces of people of various ages, and I've just been using the strictest google image search parameter, free for commercial change and redistribution (or something to that effect), and I've pulled at LEAST one photo of yours while doing so. I just realized that the actual page for one of the image I noticed was yours didn't seem quite as lax on copyright information as google believed (specifically, commercially redistributing it), but since I don't want it for commercial use, this is fine?

So you are looking for images for a non-commercial use? What image of mine did you come across of which you are inquiring? --Muhammad (talk) 13:22, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello:

I believe that all GNU Free photos can be used but since you have contact info I would like to use your photo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crab-eating_Macaque.jpg to accompany a recent news item (*below). Your full name will of course be credited. Please let me know if there is any problem with this at zoobioyh@yahoo.com. thanks

  • Conservationists Sound Alarm over Macaque

The long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is being threatened with extinction by a huge surge in international trade and the destruction of its habitat in Southeast Asia, conservationists have warned. Species Survival Network (SSN), an international coalition of over 80 charities, says trade in the species had more than doubled in the second half of the last decade. The group is pressing countries taking part in a meeting of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in Geneva this month to review the impact on the macaque of the trade.

“The long-tailed macaque is the most heavily-traded mammal currently listed on the CITES appendices and our research findings raise alarming questions concerning the long-term viability of targeted populations of the species if this trade is allowed to continued at current levels,” Ian Redmond, chairman of the SSN Primate Working Group said in a statement.

Traders sold more than 260,000 long-tailed macaques -- found mainly in Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, the Philippines and Vietnam -- between 2004 and 2008, a huge rise from the nearly 120,000 between 1999 and 2003. The breeding and supply of the monkey has developed into a large scale business enterprise mainly in Southeast Asia with most exported for medical and scientific purposes. Redmond said the population was also dwindling due to hunting, habitat loss and degradation, and human encroachment. “There is also evidence of an illegal trade in wild-caught long-tailed macaques that is likely to have a significant impact on populations,” he said.

Sorry to post again. My email is having problems, and I keep getting server errors. I posted before about the art show/competition and reading further about it they reserve the right to sell any entries, so I wasn't sure if that would be OK with you. I doubt anyone would by my colored pencil of a zebra, but it would be a possibility. My drawing is based on your pic. It isn't an exact copy but it is very easy to see it was based off of your photo. Would you mind if I still enter it? I am really excited about how well it turned out. Thanks. Angie Deaver ang@deaverhill.com

Hello Mr. Karim,

I am a teacher in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and am working on a unit for our district's sixth grade teachers on Ancient World Religions (which also leads into modern day world religions). I found some photos of yours on the Teach Mideast webpages. They were amazing because they visually told a story that should be told. I would like to use some of them in a Slide Show on the Five Pillars of Islam. They would be,

Pilgrims circumnabulating the Kaaba (Tawaaf) at http://www.teachmideast.org/gallery?func=detail&id=33#joomimg

and possibly, A close up of Mina, tent city, Mecca http://www.teachmideast.org/gallery?func=detail&id=39#joomimg
