[edit] License tagging for Image:Epiptera europa.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Epiptera europa.jpg. 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:

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. 08:06, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your "improvements" of the overcompressed jpegs

I appreciate your effort to improve the overcompressed jpegs Image:Epiptera_europa.jpg, Image:Epiptera_europea.jpg and Image:Blubellhill.jpg but I must say that the results are worse than the originals. A lot of the remaining details is lost and the worst problem is that colours of small parts surrounded by large areas are different! For example white and black parts on the larva have very different colour in comparison to the original. They are shifted to green.

I think that such modifications are unacceptable. I also think that the only valuable correction of overcompressed pictures is to compress them again from a higher quality source or to take the picture again. I am going to revert the changes. --pabouk 12:42, 15 July 2007 (UTC)


A tag has been placed on Image:Epiptera europa.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

Redundant lower quality copy of Image:Epiptera europea.jpg

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --pabouk 12:58, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
