Hello Plantsurfer!

Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.

To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.

You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!

Thank you. EugeneZelenko 16:34, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Dear Plantsrfer,

we are currently working on a student textbook with the title “Biologie” scheduled to be published in 2020. In addition an electronic version of this book is planned which will be sold to scientific institutions and libraries. In this book we would like to use the following illustration

We want to kindly ask you for the nonexclusive permission to use this material in this and future editions of our book including the electronic version and for the German speaking countries (Germany/Austria/Switzerland). Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Thank you for asking. Yes I would be happy to grant nonexclusive permission, provided the image is acknowledged as shown in my email to you. Plantsurfer (talk) 12:54, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

Greetings Plantsrfer,

I'm new to Wikipedia talk, so pardon me if I'm crashing in on a previous conversation.

In 2019 you were approached about use of an image. I'm also wondering if I can use one of your photographs in a book. I like to request nonexclusive permission to use your image 'Mimulus nectar guide UV VIS.jpg' in a book about pollination ecology, for publication this year (2020).
