Please link images

---

Hello Karduelis!

Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to 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 Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!

Thank you. BotMultichill (talk) 12:50, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Category:Galanthus caucasicus

Dear Karduelis,

Galanthus caucasicus is an obsolete name, which should no more be used. This obsolete name covers several species, which are native to the Caucasus: Galanthus alpinus, Galanthus elwesii var. monostrictus and Galanthus angustifolius.

I identify it as Galanthus angustifolius, a species which looks like the common snowdrop Galanthus nivalis - not native in Turkey - but with narrow, glaucous leaves.

I will reclassify it accordingly and ask for removing the obsolete category.

Best regards, --Réginald (To reply) 07:51, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Dear Karduelis,

According to A.P. Davis, the botanical guru of the genus Galanthus (see: Davis A.P. The Genus Galanthus – A botanical magazine monograph. Timber Press, Portland, Oregon, 1999, ISBN 0-88192-431-8), Galanthus caucasicus is indeed a synonym of Galanthus alpinus var. alpinus. However, since the name Galanthus caucasicus is abusively used for the taxa of Galanthus elwesii with one single apical spot on the internal tepals (var. monostrictus), he advises to no more use it.

The taxon on your picture is clearly not a Galanthus alpinus var. alpinus. Galanthus alpinus has broader leaves and narrow apical spot on the internal tepals. As I wrote I identify it as Galanthus angustifolius, a species which looks like the common snowdrop Galanthus nivalis, but with narrow, glaucous leaves.

Best regards, --Réginald (To reply) 07:52, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Turkish translations needed

Hi! I contact you as you seems to speak English and Turkish.

Jastrow and I are working on autotranslating {{Meta information museum}}, the meta-template we use for many museums, like {{Information Louvre}}. Could you please help us find Turkish translations for every tag name:

   * artist/maker
   * description
   * dimensions
   * credit line
   * accession number
   * location
   * source/photographer
   * references
   * other versions

"Credit line" is mainly about the mode of acquisition: what collection does it come from? Did it join the collections by gift, purchase, on loan, etc.?

Thanks for any help. Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 10:37, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

I see you just created the right page. Now the museum templates should appear in Turkish for Turkish-speaking people. Thanks a lot! Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 11:24, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Autopatrolled

Hi. I have granted you autopatroller rights. This was done in an attempt to reduce a backlog at Special:NewPages. If you have any questions, please let me know. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 20:00, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

your DRs

Hi Karduelis,
I've restored the original description of File:Anzer yaylası.JPG and File:Anzer yaylası-2.JPG. When requesting deletion, it is not ok to remove a legitimate description and license. In addition, you should add a good reason for the deletion request. Without that, it will end nowhere. --Túrelio (talk) 08:31, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
