+ | : Great, excellent work! Looking forward to the pictures. As to video or YouTube links, I'm not sure. I think you can provide the link to YouTube in the references but not actually put the video up in the Wiki. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 18:40, 9 March 2015 (EDT) |

Crustacean Photos
Are the photos you uploaded of the crustaceans yours? We need to get licensing information on them. --Jomegat (talk) 07:07, 1 December 2014 (EST)
They are all my own photos. I will only upload my own imagery. The options for licensing appear to have an odd limit in regards to those that are personally created (limited only to CopyLeft). I am willing to place them there if necessary, though I am not entirely sure that is how they should be marked. CopyLeft has some unique allowances and restrictions, but perhaps I am misunderstanding the licensing requirements.
- First, thank you - very nice work!
- Second, CopyLeft is what has made this Wiki possible. Most of the images used here came from (and are hosted by) the Wikimedia Commons, and a lot of the content was imported from Wikipedia. This was done before the NAD adopted the project. Because so much of the material is CopyLeft, it makes it a lot easier to license the work as a whole. Yes, this means that it can be used commercially as long as the contributors get attribution.
- The only images we have on the Wiki right now that do not fall under a CC-BY-SA license (or the like) are the Insignia images. The NAD allows those to be used in connection with PF ministries, and so any commercial user would have to strip those out (or get permission from the NAD) before offering it for sale.
- I can tell you that over a hundred of the photos here are my work, and that I upload them to the Wikimedia Commons and license them with CC-BY-SA. Many are used in Wikipedia, and I know of a few that have been used commercially (I've been contacted a couple of times for that, which I thought was pretty cool). I like to "give back" since CopyLeft is what made all of this possible.
- If you wish to choose another license, let me know, and I'll make inquiries (though I can't promise anything). Though really, it would make my life a lot easier if you were willing to adopt a CopyLeft license. --Jomegat (talk) 18:38, 1 December 2014 (EST)
I'll work with CopyLeft. Can't seem to see a way to modify to add the licensing info on the existing images. perhaps i am missing it in the edit files? anyway, let me know if an easy way. I'll add the licensing on future images. Have a lot to help build out some of these to make them more visually appealing, but also to hopefully encourage others to add their own images rather than rely on ones already on the internet - its more fun to find and build the image library individually - gets folks out there. I will be adding the dissection images for the shrimp and crab later this week or next week. We are teaching this honor this weekend, then I'll see how complicated it is to order from the SADivision - portuguese isnt exactly my first or second language :) R. Baker (talk) 20:05, 1 December 2014 (EST)
- Thank you - that's very much appreciated. If you edit the page, you can add the licensing (and other information) manually:
== Summary ==
{{Information
|Description =Description of image
|Source ={{own}}
|Author =[[User:RABaker96|RABaker96]]
|Date =
}}
== Licensing ==
{{self|cc-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}}
If you like, I could add that to all the images. Thanks again. --Jomegat (talk) 21:27, 1 December 2014 (EST)
Welcome
I'm loving how you are putting in actual learning from your teaching of the honors. Thank-you and welcome. JadeDragon (talk) 20:27, 14 December 2014 (EST)
- Your work on Crustaceans is nothing short of brilliant. I may have to teach this to my club - whether I can get patches for it or not! --Jomegat (talk) 14:24, 19 December 2014 (EST)
Porifera and Cnidaria
Will be adding images for this in the next few days, just have to finish processing them. Is there a way to also add video or you-tube files? I have some video footage of Jellyfish and Ctenophores in motion that can aid in understanding and appreciating these organisms.
