Just saw the great iceberg image. Very very nice, thanks for making this available to wikipedia! -- mkrohn 20:38 Apr 3, 2003 (UTC)

I like the images very much (being a biologist myself)! Just a "formal" question: You are aware that by putting them here, you release the images under the GFDL? You do keep the copyright, of course! You might want to move the copyright notice onto the "image:" page, though (the one you reach when you click on the image). This seems to be the common way at wikipedia, to state the source on the image page, not within the article. Thanks! Magnus Manske 21:34 Apr 3, 2003 (UTC)

I've just found one of your excellent pages- I liked the photos too. Tannin and I have done most of the bird articles, and we have taken to putting a taxobox classification summary on each page (see Great grey shrike). Some of the mammal and plant people have done the same, and I've added boxes to some other articles to get consistency. I don't have the specialised knowledge to add to taxoboxes to your articles. If you think its a good idea, you could give it a try. I'm not a computer person either. I copied an existing taxobox and changed the words. Keep up the good work. jimfbleak 14:32 Apr 10, 2003 (UTC)

In a moment I'm off to take some more marsupial photos for the day (up at 4:00AM and another 400km round trip - uuugh!) but it will be my pleasure to work with you on giving a final polish to Eel story a little later. Perhaps I should dust off my field guides and write a companion entry on the Australian eels - which as I'm sure you already know, have a rather similar life pattern and were very significant indeed, as prior to the introduction of northern hemisphere trout and redfin, they were the dominant species in most Austraian streams. Tannin

---

Uwe, I gather from my on-line reading that there are about 15 Anguillidae species, and that all (?) the northern hemisphere ones are catadromous, but there is some vagueness about the southern ones. From my local sources, however, I discover that at least all 4 Australian species are also catadromous, and spawn somewhere in the Coral Sea or, in the case of Aunuilla bicolor, off Sumatra. So my question is, am I safe in saying that all the anguillids do this? Thanks -- Tannin

---

Sorry, Tony, I do not know that. I will work on it. Maybe in the meantime you can go to the database of a student who was once in our lab, now a big player: http://www.fishbase.org with info on 27 000 species so far. You can also become a cooperator there (I am no 350)

best greetings "sailor" Kils 15:26 1 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Thanks 'Sailor'. For the moment I found a workaround - instead of saying "like all" or "like most" I just vaguely said "like other freshwater eels". It would be the easiest thing in the world to develop a serious interest in fish. But (darn it!) there are only so many hours in the day and I'm up to my eyeballs in birds and mammals already. Not to mention the plants, aircraft, and modern history I've been neglecting of late. I think I need to be triplets. But I'll come back to this question, eels have always seemed to me an especially interesting fish. As a child, I used to really enjoy eating them fresh-caught - much tastier than trout, which (in my opinion) is rather bland and over-rated - but now that I know how far they have to swim and how long it takes one to reach maturity, I don't think I would anymore. Best -- Tannin

--- Hallo Toni, you are right. Especially the glassels are fascinating. We are building with highschool children here in New Jersey "eel ladders", because they get stuck in front of weirs when the are immigrating. The kids hollow a tree and put an old fishernet inside. They climb up inside by the thousands - and we image it with an endocope. The class just won from 2000 entries prize 1 in a visit to our university. We had that all on the web, but the server got lost. Maybe I find the CD with a copy of a magazin article about our work with the children, the I will "wiki-message" it to you - in a hurry "sailor" Kils

Hello, I just added some formatting and some content to the oxygen saturation page you started. I put the Weiss formula into TeX markup, but I don't know exactly what it should look like. Can you double check my changes to make sure I got it right? Also, just make sure I didn't mess things up too badly. Jmeppley 19:21, 9 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Antarctic Krill FAC

Hello again! I tightened up the prose on one of the paragraphs, but I am afraid that biology was never my specialty, and my knowledge on the subject is very low. Because I don't know a lot about the article, I can't help improve it, and I don't think I should support it for feature article because I don't know how comprehensive it is. What is there is great, but I try not to vote on things unless I know something about them. Sorry I can't be more helpful Best Wishes Scimitar 21:00, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Antarctic Krill copyediting

It's a highly informative article, but it remains in desperate need of thorough copyediting. I'll see if I can attend to it soon. Best Regards, El_C 23:48, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

thank you, El, for the fast response - I am from Germany and I know my English is rotten - stil do more on English wiki so more can use it - best greetings Uwe Kils 00:19, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)

I'm going to have something to eat (could it be krill?), then I'm going to forget about the abyss that is the Israeli-Palestinian conflict articles for a little while, and attend to these oh-so a-political Antarctic Krill. :) Best regards, El_C 01:14, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Done. Please look closely at my changes and let me know what you think. Best regards, El_C 02:51, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

hallo El_C - thank you for the fast work, very helpfull. We would like to keep the animations, we were very often complimented just because of those. If we do not get feature status because of that that is ok with us. keep up with the fine work for wikipedia Uwe Kils 03:25, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)

Glad to help, Uwe! I also hope you are able to keep them, I find them to be very instructive. I'm not familliar with the WP:FAC and never participated in it in any way whatsoever, but you rank very high among my favourite picture contributors. Keep up the fine work yourself! :) El_C 05:13, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Comments

Hey there, Kills. Your work on Antarctic krill is quite commendable, and I have made a superficial revision of it. At this point, I think you should expand it a bit further, as there are still some gaps on the article. After that, I sincerely wouldn't mind doing an extensive revision of it. I do believe that it might get featured; if not now, at least in the near future. Cheers. --Sn0wflake 01:43, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

FAC

Hello, Uwe Kils. I'll be reviewing your FAC (Krill, I think?) soon. Thanks for your patience! Flcelloguy 02:51, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Re:Krill

Hi Uwe!

I agree with El_C above, what the krill article is in great need of is copyediting. My knowledge about krill is really meager; however, since you're asking so kindly, I'll modestly try to help out. The Image:Kilsheadkils.jpg was just a merge from antarctic krill head, which I agree with Weyes is not notable. As a first step in helping out, I have created the Image:Filterkrillkils2.gif, since the black areas of Image:Filterkrillkils.gif gave me epileptic shocks, even though I do not suffer from epilepsy.

Regards. --Salleman 04:22, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

PS. Is Image:Kilsheadkils.jpg a section of an image of equal quality of an entire krill? In that case, upload it! It could very well become a Featured Picture!

I have already proofread it. :) It did need quite a bit of work. I found it a most interesting and informative article. Well done, Uwe Kils! El_C 05:15, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Moreover, I have uploaded a version of this image instead of the poorer quality image found there before. If you disagree to GFDL it, you can easily change back to the previous version. If you agree, you should definitely make it a Featured picture candidate. --Salleman 06:48, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Wow! Great pic! El_C 06:56, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hi Kils,

Just to let you know that your photo Image:Icefishuk.jpg is due to make a reappearance as Pic of the Day on the 20th June. I've used the same caption as last time, but you can make any changes at Wikipedia:Picture of the day/June 20, 2005. -- Solipsist 07:43, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Academic board review and peer review diffs

Thanks for your comments, Uwe. I have responded to them here. I wish to congratulate you on the peer review diff. But also, as I mention in my response, I think it is important to note which academic board reviewed which peer review article section, so I wonder which one it was in this case (?). In the future, then, I am of the opinion it should be noted specifically for the benefit of the researcher/reader. Once again, well done! Best Regards, El_C 07:55, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The Pleopods can do that?

Strong support for Krill eye. Wow. *** Too much weird sex! Not in the articles I edit, though definitely in ones that you do(!). Let me quote you: In the typical way of all euphausiaceans, the male attaches a sperm package to the genital opening of the female. For this purpose, the first pleopods of the male are constructed as tools. Yes, I recall some of those issues you raised on the mailing list (which I noticed from links on your RFA). What I was wondering, though, is how the academic board's peer review certificate/notation for the diff can be authenticated (let say, a Wikiversity affiliated certificate would do the trick). Does that make sense? *** I find your Virtual University article to have some interesting and promising potential, but I voted to move it to your user space because it appears to be a policy proposal rather than a guide to using Wikipedia. So, I think that, as such a policy proposal, it would be best to draw people into from there first it so as to be able to get it effectively towards that stage. And as I also said, as per collegues outside of Wikipedia, it of course works the same way. I'm pleased to hear you are getting positive responses from other shcolars around the world. That 's encouraging. Keep up the good work! Yours, El_C 13:04, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I always tried to encourage wiki editors to give their full name and communications and credentials, especially I asked scientists, but they all declined. We can not understand that, also not the explanations they gave. Maybe it takes some more months and media coverages to get peoples trust. An academic board should really be with names and back trackable to the field and reputation of the members. The krill article has been reviewed by experts from Norway, Germany, Danmark, Australia and USA - all found you all have done a great job. I just asked another colleague in Norway to do it again in a week, also translate more to Scandinavian languages (thats where my roots are). I could put the Virtual university brainstorming also on one of our web servers, like ecoscope.com, but we want it in the middle of international discussions (but only if wanted). We think great luctures can also develop if done in a community way (now every professor does her thing, and for high tuition). I still think it would be great within Wikipedia, as it is long the biggest educational motion ever. I am eager to see what the future brings - we got a price for the things we did on free education for the havenots, my students did great things on the web very early - so we feel obliged to share our university education and possibilities - lets communicate accross all boarders and ages Uwe Kils 16:05, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Yes, absolutely, I am all for international and interdisciplinary communication and copperation. That sounds very encouraging. The thing with having a record of who reviewed what is not related so much to scientists as yourself. I trust you. But like yourself, I'm thinking about the future: I am concrned that there are more questionable psuedo or quazi scientists out there who may wish to advance unsceintific theories, and who may say an academic review board process had taken place, when in fact, it hasn't (or was, let say, reviewed by their students rather than peers). This is why, in that sense, future standardization is important. Of course, I meant no slight towards yourself; the fact that several of the 'students' you list on your page are peers now, speaks for itself, I think. Yours, El_C 16:34, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

the reader should have the possibility to juge on her own how much the scientist is suited for the field, following independent sources like this and faculty pages. Just to google for the name is not jet very helpfull, because most of the sci material is behind passwords of expensive magazines or not on the web jet. Uwe Kils 16:47, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Just a notice that I have reset the new hi-res image you recently uploaded as per your request. You can now modify it as you see fit. Best regards, El_C 15:46, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I do not. Is it any good? I don't really like using instant messengers (long and somewhat uninteresting story). But I will send you an email soon (I have to go out now), or in the meantime, feel more than free to email me. All the best, El_C 16:53, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I recieved your email, Uwe. Thank you so much for the very warm words. I have responded to it just now (answering also some of the items you left on my talk page before I had to step out). I hope to hear back from you soon. Yours, El_C 22:47, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

An image request

Uwe, how about putting Abb 2 from [1] (the schematic view of krill) into the Krill article? It'd be great if you could donate that image to Wikipedia; we could explain so much better what all these technical terms for the various parts of krill anatomy mean with such an image. Don't worry about translating the legends, I can take care of that once the image in on Wikipedia. Could you do that, please? Lupo 08:23, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Krill

Congratulations on the Antarctic krill article. It improved dramatically. I would be willing to support the latest version, if you ever decide to renominate it. Best wishes and good luck, Meelar (talk) 13:06, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

compound eye 2

Hi Kils,

Well as you have seen, it looks like Mark has beaten me too it and already nominated your Image:Krilleyekils.jpg on WP:FPC - and it looks like it is very popular too. I'm guessing you didn't intend to vote 'neutral' but rather make a 'comment', although there really is no reason why you should't 'support' if you wanted to.

One other thing, at the moment the picture doesn't have a clear copyright tag on the image description page. From the comment there, it looks like you intend to license it as GFDL, but it would be good if you could add an explicit {{GFDL}} or {{GFDL-self}} tag to it. -- Solipsist 17:54, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I put the gfdl tag - I also uploaded high resolution images to amphipod and copepod and icefish http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Icefishuk.jpg but when you click in the image or the high res link the old small images come up - any sugggestions? Uwe Kils 18:12, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

You might be being plagued by image caches. At the moment, I see a version which is 1536 x 1024 pixels, whilst the smaller version from January was about 320 x 240. -- Solipsist 18:23, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

And just now, click on the image gave me the previous small version... reloading the browser page with <CTRL>-F5 got it back to the big one. The file size in the image history looks about right for the larger version. To avoid confusion over licensing, you should probably remove the 'High Resolution copyrighted version...' line too. -- Solipsist 18:36, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

if I click in the icefish image or the high res link it jumps to the 500 pixel image, same with the amphipod and copepod - I cleared all cache Uwe Kils 18:51, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Well I'm fairly sure that you have got the larger version of the icefish uploaded, even if you are not seeing the right result. What browser are you using?

When I follow the link to the full size version I get to this page which is the page to press <CTRL>-F5 (on Firefox, and I think it is the same on Internet Explorer, but it might be <SHIFT> and click on the reload icon in the toolbar)

There are also some server caches on Wikipedia's side. I don't really know how to control these, but modifying the purge link near the top of WP:FPC, you might try following this purge link

safari on mac osx Uwe Kils 19:34, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Ahh, I can't help there. Curiously a quick web search doesn't throw up anything concrete. But you can't be alone, so 'how do you reload the image cache on Safari' would be a good question for the Village Pump. -- Solipsist 20:01, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Krill

Want to take a look? Catch my errors! I could use a fact check... :-) Not being a specialist, I had to stay at a pretty general level (ok, that's also because it's an article subsuming 86 species). I think you could probably add some detail and/or factual corrections. Just keep in mind that this is not about Euphausia superba, but on krill in general. I'm also planning to write a krill fishery article based on the (Nicol 1997) reference given in the article. Do you know of a more recent survey that is available on-line? Lupo 20:23, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Lupo, I saw that already, you did a great job, I found a typo, will look at it more. My field is really E. superba and herring but I will try. For Fisheries Inigo Everson in GB knows and has a lot. I wrote him already to add or send me for inclusion. It is fun to work with you together ;-) Uwe Kils 20:30, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Moving images to Commons

Hi Uwe!

I'd be happy to help with the moving of the images (great photos, btw). However, I'd need your assistance as well. Could you make a list of those images you want to be copied? There are two main requirements for content on the Commons:

• It has to be potentially useful to the Wikimedia projects. This excludes purely personal photos (children, students etc.).
• It has to be under a free license. This excludes fair use content.

If you could sort out those files which meet those requirements, I'll copy them over. I'll use the image description pages that are there, so you may want to look over them again (the page you get to when you click on an image).

Dank & Gruß, Eloquence* 11:50, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)

Antarctic krill

Hi Uwe, sorry for the delay, I was very busy with my PhD exam and thus had no time for any wikipedia related things :( Now it is getting better again though I have to move in about a week. Unfortunately I do know very little about Krill and thus cannot contribute to it very much, but I promise that I will read the article within the next few days and try to help making it better - btw the article looks already impressive. -- mkrohn 00:24, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hello, and thank you for your courtesy and decorum. I'm afraid you probably don't want my help on this article, because my biology knowledge is not very extensive. Thank you, anyway. --Scimitar 20:07, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Well, I took a look at it, and did some basic grammar and word use editting. However, there are a few places where I didn't know for sure what you were saying. Because my biology knowledge is limited, I didn't fix those spots, as my interpretation might be wrong. I hope what I did helps, and best wishes. --Scimitar 20:33, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hello Kils

Just would like to state that i have very much enjoyed being involved in a project of this nature. To see the speed of co-operation between various people was (Uwe, Lupo and Salleman and all others) fantastic. It was a complete buzz to go off researching about a scientific subject and coming to some understanding and appreciation of a creature that i would have no knowledge or interest in otherwise. I would like to say that it takes a damn good teacher to get others interested in what they teach and i for one, if only in a rudimentary and general way have found the subject of Krill and sorrounding issues of ecology and environment fascinating. I think that says a lot about your willingness to let others participate in something which you obviously have great knowledge in and could easily have been a lot less humble with. At some point i will put up some informtion on my home page so at least people know a little more about me. Am going to try to extend the article on Ice-algae so any info you may have would be good. I hope the article on Antartic Krill gets featured as i think it is now very good.

Wikiversity sounds like a good idea but will need more time to go through the proposal (not too sure what help i could be).

Once again thanks Uwe! Yakuzai 22:50, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome (about those Antarctic krill)

My pleasure to support the article -- it deserves to be featured (as much of your work here does). It's a real pleasure to know that scientists like you take Wikipedia seriously, and that laymen (women?) like me can contribute to sophisticated articles like this. (Glad you liked Duran Duran too -- not quite on the same plane, but we all have our specialties, eh?) Best of luck, let me know if I can help on any more articles.

Commons pictures

Hi,

I just saw the list of images you put on my user page. I'll be in Korea for a few days, but I'll work on it when I get back. I think Antarctic krill is looking excellent, by the way. I personally liked having all the images in the article the way they were, but I guess everyone's taste is different.

One more thing: I read somewhere that you wrote that I proposed Wikiversity. This is not true. I've worked on the proposal recently and I'm trying to help make this happen, however, the original idea has been around quite a while before my own involvement, as has the Wikiversity project on Wikibooks. Much credit goes to User:Maveric149, but I'm not sure who originally proposed it. If you write that I proposed Wikiversity people might get angry at you or me, so please correct this :-)

I believe that Wikiversity should only be started as an official Wikimedia project once we have specialized software for test development and certification.--Eloquence*

Pics

Hello Uwe. It would be a joy to contribute to both articles that you mentioned.

Two questions:

1. do you or your colleagues have any pictures of exuvaie that you would like to upload to illustrate the short article on Exuvia ? It doesn't matter if it is a picture of insect, arachnid or crustacean exuvia.

2. Will you be expanding the article on Antarctic Paradox at some point in future? I think that could be an interesting article.

Thank you Yakuzai 21:31, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The US, but I'm curious why you would ask. As far as the explanations of the bio stuff, it would of course be great to have it in the article instead, which is what I think you were getting at, but not sure. - Taxman ^Talk 15:48, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you

Thanks for the image of the Krill exuvia (looks very cool). Have busy weekend ahead (the weather is beautiful and the beer will be running freely) so i will get down to editing next week probably. Have a good one! Yakuzai 17:35, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Edit Counter

I use the counter that Kate built, it's on her site. "Kils" has a total of 2827 edits (on en), and another 932 on de!

Plug your name in and you get this: http://kohl.wikimedia.org/~kate/cgi-bin/count_edits?user=Kils&dbname=enwiki

Just copy that URL onto your page and check your edits any time (but as the page warns, compulsively counting your edits can be fatal.....)

By the way, I like your herring too!  :) — Catherine\^talk 00:52, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oh, you mean Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits? That's a report that's run manually -- it hasn't been updated since April 27 -- I should be significantly higher in it too.

Hi Uwe

Hello across the water (i think i am infringeing on copyright at this point). Thank you for my fish award! Am very happy that article is now featured, excellent work by all involved. Thanks for the exuvia images they are excellent. After a fine weekend of debauchery and beer i feel that i am now ready to begin on helping with getting the next project to feature status. Look forward to working with you again professor. Yakuzai 28 June 2005 18:06 (UTC)

Hi Uwe

Just made some grammatical adjustments to the article about your father. He sounds like a very interesting person as are you. It would be great if he would take a serious look at Wikipedia. The more professional scientists we get onboard the better!

As i know that you are trying to get others of your professional standing involved in this project i would like to offer as a member of the public some thoughts for those who are skeptical of such a project.

All too often the general public is left out of contributing to discussions of scientific importance as we are considered by the scientific community in general to be ignorant and unqualified to engage in any meaningful dialogue about scientific issues of importance. If indeed the assumption of ignorance is true then in my opinion it is a fault of the mediums in which scientific knowledge and datum is transmitted i.e. specialist publications, newspapers, television and to a lesser extent radio. These mediums offer no chance of a dialogue to develop between the general public and the specialist scientist. Instead they are in the case of T.V., newspaper and radio the transmitters of spoon fed facts that we have no control over and renders arbritrary those facts in relation to the world we live in.

However with a medium such as the internet and a project such as wikipedia their thus arises a new dynamic between the learned and the layman in that a person with no knowledge of a specialist subject can enter into a dialogue with a specialist and comment on what has been written offering advice to elucidate and make clearer the subject for the general reader. The empowerment that is garnered from this relationship cannot be underestimated as it can have in my opinion many side benefits such as a less alienated relationship to scientific knowledge, a greater appreciation of the information being conveyed, a willingness to actively learn more about the subject you have been involved with.

If scientists truely want to engage with the public and have what they say be understood then they must actively get involved in having a dialogue with them, Wikipedia in my opinion and experience to date is a great opportunity to do this. Yakuzai 1 July 2005 00:36 (UTC)

Question on the exoskeleton of krill

Uwe, I just noticed that I had written in the krill article "The larvae grow and molt multiple times during this process, shedding their rigid exoskeleton and growing a new one whenever it becomes too small. Smaller animals molt more frequently than larger ones." This is in the section on the life-cycle. Upon re-reading, this strikes me as patently false. Surely the first few larval stages of krill do not have an exoskeleton and therefore do not molt. From what stage on do they have an exoskeleton? They do have one in the furcilia stages (or so I infer from [Kn84]). Do they already have one in the calyptopsis stages? As metanauplii, they don't seem to have one yet—at least the image doesn't look like they had one... Lupo 06:27, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

even the nauplius has an exosceleton and molt, as all stages have/do, like in all crustaceans.

PS in Wikipedia they did not like our motions for a "Virtual University" and courseware, we got an offer from here http://kils.pageout.net and mount some wiki pages into it - it is supposed to become a teaching insitution for third world countries and as supplement for not so rich students ( http://wikinfo.org/wiki.php?title=Virtual_University ) - thank you for your help making our bio-babel better understandable Uwe Kils 13:32, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

On your Virtual University Course

Hi Uwe,

you mentioned that you wanted to mount some wikipedia pages into your course at the McGraw-Hill Virtual University. Just let me point out that linking to Wikipedia articles is fine, but copying Wikipedia content would not be ok, because McGraw-Hill's copyright statement (Accessed from the "Terms of use" link at the bottom of your page there) conflicts with the GFDL. They write:

The McGraw-Hill Companies has the right to use all material entered into these Web pages (other than third-party material transmitted through private electronic mail) in any of The McGraw-Hill Companies' print or electronic publications.

Yes, if Wikipedia content is copied onto their pages, they may do that (just like they may do without it having been copied to their site), but only if they follow the GFDL: publish it together with a copy of the text of the GFDL and credit the authors. However, I would personally be very careful to enter any text into that web site: they are not clear whether by entering text you automatically assign the copyright to McGraw-Hill, or what.

Except for making one hard copy print of limited portions of the McGraw-Hill Information on an ad hoc basis, or downloading as expressly authorized by The McGraw-Hill Companies, McGraw-Hill Information may not be reproduced, transmitted or distributed without The McGraw-Hill Companies' permission.

For Wikipedia content copied onto their web pages, they cannot make such a restriction. Once GFDL, always GFDL.

If you copy stuff to which you hold the copyright (such as your images, or the texts you uploaded onto Wikisource) onto McGraw-Hill's web site, that would be ok. You would, at that moment, double-license your work: you'd grant McGraw-Hill the aforementioned rights, but McGraw-Hill still has no way to prevent people from redistributing the GFDL versions posted at Wikipedia or Wikisource. However, any new information posted to their website (and not previously released under the GFDL somewhere else) might be lost for the GFDL world (as I said above, they're not clear whether posting to their web site constitutes a transfer of copyrights). Lupo 16:26, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Hallo Lupo! thank you for your discussion. I have not even looked at the rights section, also not mounted any copyright sensitive material on their server - just wanted to test the system. We planned to mount a Virtual University within Wikipedia, but the pages were put for deletion http://wikinfo.org/wiki.php?title=Virtual_University . As you know I mounted some here on the German proposal project http://de.wikiversity.org/wiki/Ozeanographie/kurse/ but we do not know if it will survive or others will join. I could leave everything on my university or other servers, but the ideas of free content and no password I like a lot and allways promoted. Maybe the Wikiversity proposals will break through on day. Right now I only link to our fine works on Wikipedia, and later we can take all from McGraw to Wikibooks, maybe. Thank you again Uwe Kils 16:51, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Your gallery in commons

Wow. I was amazed to see your gallery at commons, particularly the Salmon. One minor suggestion. Can you use the following code instead of the current image syntax?

[[Image:Salmonlarvakils.jpg|thumb|left|500px|[[Salmon]] fry hatching - the larva has grown around the remains of the yolk - visible are the arteries spinning around the yolk and little oildrops, also the gut, the spine, the main caudal blood vessel, the bladder and the arcs of the gills]] <gallery> Image:Icefishuk.jpg Image:Salmoneggstotkils.jpg Image:Tomopteriskils.jpg Image:Amphipodredkils.jpg Image:Ctenophora.jpg Image:Vikingshipkils.jpg </gallery>

This code will render like the following.

Salmon fry hatching - the larva has grown around the remains of the yolk - visible are the arteries spinning around the yolk and little oildrops, also the gut, the spine, the main caudal blood vessel, the bladder and the arcs of the gills

krill on mainpage in Danmark today

Hi Uwe! I better point out that my edits on Antarctic krill as a matter of fact was just of the menial copyedit kind. I am really not very knowledgeable about oceanography. I must say that I can't find Antarctic krill on da:Forside; however, I see that the article will be on the main page tomorrow. Congratulations on that one, the Antarctic krills and you sure deserve it!

Moreover, I (a Swede) will most likely make many silly mistakes if I try to translate to Norwegian, even if I read it fluently. With caution, I might be able to help out with a paragraph or two, though. I'll see what time I'll get to spare.

Hi Uwe

Hi Uwe (that sounds weird, do you pronounce "uwe" the same as "you"? :-)) Congratulations on the Danish Featured Article! The wiki project is unbelievable project. There are no national barriers or petty competition, it's just a collect piece of human knowledge. I don't really frequent the Featured Article voting forum, as I'm only in Yr 10 and although I'm good at english, I haven't really got time to go through an article. But your krill article struck me as very well laid out, I think all wiki articles should have at least that amount of photos - illustration is so essential IMO. I love the photo of krill meat!

I'm glad I was able to fix a little spelling mistake on your userpage, could have happened to anyone though so don't worry.

See you around wiki! --Fir0002 23:10, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

First of all, let me congratulate you on your excellent article -- good job! And just to reiterate, I have absolutely nothing but praise for you -- my critiques were aimed at those who approved the article for featured status without making these minor, albeit necessary, grammatical corrections. Actually, I believe that I've taken care of the problems now; I just wanted to avoid such things in the future, on featured articles. P.S. Your English isn't bad at all, although my German really is rotten;) --Zantastik talk 17:43, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

Hi Uwe

Great to see the Antarctic krill on front page, well done professor. Have not had a lot of time recently for internet/wikipedia but hopefully can get more involved soon - the herring and atlantic herring pages still need a lot of work. Thanks for the email as well, sorry for not replying as yet will try to download the skype thing might be quite interesting to have a live conversation although i think that emailing is still good and i might be a bit nervous talking to someone of your standing as a scientist.

Pic of the Day

Hi Uwe,

Just to let you know that your photo Image:Krilleyekils.jpg is up for Pic of the Day on the 3rd of September. As this will be a weekend, it will probably also appear on the MainPage. If you get a chance, can you check/correct/improve the associated caption at Wikipedia:Picture of the day/September 3, 2005. In particular I used the phrase 'disproportionately large' to describe the eye, as this seemed more appropriate than 'massive' in the context of the short caption description. Hopefully this isn't an error. -- Solipsist 10:33, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

Ecoscope

I came across the ecoSCOPE article from a "cleanup" page, but I'm afraid the article is so confusing that I couldn't figure out how to clean it up. For one thing, there are so many pictures that it formats very poorly, making the text hard to follow - how about removing a couple of them? Mostly, though, I'm afraid the writing is quite unclear. Is this a device only suitable for use with herring, or is it a general underwater-observation? If it's general, why do the first paragraphs talk only about herring? - DavidWBrooks 19:52, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

Deine Artikel bei Wikisource

Unter s:de:Der Krill ist der Beitrag aus der Naturwissenschaftlichen Rundschau 10 (deutsch und englisch), unter s:en:Author:Uwe Kils sind englische und im internationalen Bereich sind noch die Bilder ([4]). Es wäre schön, wenn du die Artikel auf die einzelnen Projekte nach Sprachen aufteilen könntest, und die Bilder auf den Commons unterbrächtest. Prinzipiell können das zwar auch andere machen, aber dann steht (nur) deren Name bei den Texten und Bildern. Es wäre also praktischer, wenn das direkt durch dich geschähe.

Image copyright problem with Image:Vikingshipkils.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Vikingshipkils.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Admrboltz (T | C) 21:50, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Precisions needed on the Iceberg image

On International wikisource, some (myself included) are trying to precise the copyright situation of the iceberg image, and of its parts. A quick look at the image page answered my first question; I have another one : is the other picture you used in the photomontage yours? (the one that's upside down) --Kcyclopedist 00:59, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I found [this image], and [this one], that seem to match, can you confirm they are yours?

Sorry for the edit fever, I have to explain how I found the links : I just performed a search on image google with the words 'iceberg kils', and 'show only large images' I got 2 or 3 thumbnails with broken links; I then copied the address to web.archive.org, and after multiple tries bumped on the matching pics. Since I found the pics by using your name, I guess they're yours, but I need confirmation --Kcyclopedist 04:53, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Hello,

I see you've already been contacted regarding the wikisource iceberg logo. At oldwikisource:Wikisource talk:New Wikisource logo there has been an ongoing discussion regarding the use of the logo. The situation is that because the copyright of the iceberg image is owned by yourself, & only released to WS under GDFL, the Wikimedia foundation is unable to use the image for merchandising/advertising/etc. Therefore there have been calls from a relative few, very vocal & active, users to use another image for the logo (for which the copyright would be held by the foundation). It seems that the only way to keep the iceberg logo (which personally I much prefer to any of the others proposed) for the long-term is for you to transfer your copyright to the foundation - thus removing the main reason for a change. I would therefore ask you to consider doing this and, if you decide to, publicising this on oldwikisource:Wikisource:New Wikisource logo. Thank you, if you have any questions please let me know. AllanHainey 14:34, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Nikolausgelpke.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Nikolausgelpke.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Shyam ^(T/C) 14:22, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Request

Hi Kils,

My name is Fernanda Viégas and I have been studying Wikipedia for a while now (you can see a paper I published on the subject here). I would like to ask you a few questions about your activities as a Wikipedia "photographer." I am fascinated by the pictorial side of Wikipedia and it would be great to hear about this community from one of its members. Would you be available for an email interview? Thanks, Fernanda.

Hello Uwe, at first I have to admit that was me who tried to reorganise the layout of your personal user page. Or should I say adjust or fine tune? I just began splitting the huge ammount of text into several paragraphs (editable section). Furthermore, I put a frame with a description around a few pictures, and the photographs of your former students are now hosted in a small gallery. Chances are that you do like my proposal, I thnik. If you don't, feel free to revert my changes. At least I might have given you some inspiration for a future update you'd perhaps like to perform. Greetings from across the Atlantic. --Tim

images for works you uploaded to Wikisource

Hi,

A while ago you uploaded some of your publications onto Wikisource. We were wondering if you still have the images laying around to reupload them for us, as they are all broken. If the images are not readded, it is likely that the works will be deleted, since we don't have any way to find the pictures we need. If you could reupload them, that would be greatly appreciated.

License tagging for Image:Schmidt.pdf

Thanks for uploading Image:Schmidt.pdf. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 14:06, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Commons

Hallo Kils,

I am Siga in the German Wikipedia, Commons and the Greek Wikipedia but I don't have an account here. I want to use your photos of the article exuvia. But because they are not in Commons, I have them to transfer there first. I will do this mentioning the source and keeping the GNU-Rights. But perhaps you will do this yourself. I created allready an article exuviae in Commons in the category Arthropoda.

I think it will serve your interests best, if from today I will wait one week. So if in that time you didn't put the pictures yourself, I will do that for you. If you don't agree, leave me a note here. Thanks a lot Siga --84.158.235.216 07:31, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Image:Freiheitu.jpg

Moin Uwe! (Nein, die Zeitzone schreckt mich nicht ab, Dir zu schreiben ;o))

Auf dem Wikimedia-Commons habe ich Dein "bildschönes" Bild Image:Freiheitu.jpg gefunden, als ich gerade versucht habe, die "Kategorie:Sailing ships" etwas aufzuräumen. Da Du ziemlich genaue Angaben zum Schiff gemacht hast (Heimathafen), weißt Du zufällig auch Name (Freiheitu??) und/oder Flagge, unter dem es segelt (Deutschland?)? Vielen Dank im voraus.

PS: Übrigens schon bemerkt? Die e-mail-Adresse, über die Du laut Hinweis oben angeblich am besten zu erreichen bist, funktioniert (zur Zeit?) nicht.

Viele Grüße, Ibn Battuta 02:58, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Hallo Uwe! Eben habe ich Deine Antwort auf meiner Benutzerseite entdeckt - tut mir leid, die habe ich wohl nicht gut beobachtet, ich schaue immer nur meine Diskussionsseite an... Noch merkwürdiger fand ich, daß Du mir anscheinend im Dezember auf meine Anfrage aus dem Januar geantwortet hast... oder war dann doch eine e-mail durchgegangen? Wie auch immer, vielen Dank für die Auskunft! Ich habe mal den Bootsnamen der Kleinen Freiheit ergänzt. Und entschuldige die späte Antwort meinerseits.

Fair use rationale for Image:Krill-FA-MP.png

Image:Krill-FA-MP.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Image:Lobodon carcinophaga teeth.svg

Hello,

SVG version, waiting for contributions to make it look like the old one.

In order to better illustrate the article Crabeater Seal, I used your Image:CrabeaterSealSkullSchematic.png to make a SVG version. But the license you used (GFDL) is problematic since I want to print this picture for a club in witch I participate, and without a license like Creative Commons, I'm not able to do that without printing all the GFDL license.

So, can I release Image:Lobodon carcinophaga teeth.svg with the licenses “GFDL + CC-by-sa-3.0” (or, better, CeCILL or GPL instead of GFDL)? Thank you.

To reply, please leave me a message on Commons, because I'll receive an e-mail when a new message is posted.
Thanks again. Diti (talk to the penguin) 23:12, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Gelpke.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Gelpke.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy

Nevertheless, a threat is a threat, and the talk page of an article about Jimmy Wales isn't likely to get the response you desire. However, given the nature of that edit and the response above, I cannot discount the possibility that your account is compromised and someone else claiming to be you is making these edits.

I'm not sure why you wanted to repeat that, but as I said, all you need do is retract the legal threat; it doesn't matter who you are or what you've done for Wikipedia, if you make a legal threat on Wikipedia against Wikipedia, the foundation, or its editors, you get blocked for as long as the legal threat stands. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 16:32, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

In view of your email to me withdrawing your threat to sue, I have unblocked you. I would recommend that in future you seek advice from admins or other experienced users if you have a problem with events on Wikipedia- as I said above, we have no jurisdiction over Commons here.
