Unspecified source for Image:Reported l.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Reported l.gif. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify 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 file 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 meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 21:00, 7 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU≈talk 21:00, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
A vet!!
Is there a vet-page? I have long said if we had an MD as courteous, smart and thorough as our vet, we would all be better off. When we have a question about one of our dogs or cats, he explains (gave us a journal article in a particularly tough situation) and does not condescend. Why can't more MDs be like that? I think vets are grossly underappreciated. ;-) Jance 04:15, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- There is a project page for MDs -- WP:Clin-Med [1]
and one for attorneys (which I may one day get more involved with) [2] That's what I mean. These are project pages where professionals brainstorm, discuss articles relating to their profession etc. Jance 04:49, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Hmm, I guess lawyers & vets are busier than some of the other Wikipedians....the lawyer's page isn't exactly taking off, either.Jance 05:59, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Bird health
I have just started a new sub category of Category:aviculture called Category:Bird health. There are not many articles in the category yet. I wonder if you could help make a few basic pages, perhaps Egg binding, hatching problems, a bird psittacosis page, and any other common bird health or bird breeding problems.

Add a scalebar to your micrograph?
Nice picture of struvite crystals in urine sediment (Image:Struvite_crystals_dog_1.JPG) Could you add a scale bar and re-load for added value? PBarak 02:30, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
- [response to your msg on my usertalkpg]. Not hard at all to judge scale. Just return to the same magnification on the scope and settings on the camera, and then observe an object of known size. If you have a microscope slide with a known grid size that's easiest, but could be even a very good ruler might work for a x40 magnification. Then can calculate a pixels per length ratio and construct a scale bar on the micrograph using MS PowerPoint or such (--I'll help with this part, if you'd like.) PBarak 15:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
- [followup to your second msg on my usertalkpg]. It looks really good! and very informative. My first encounter with struvite was as a medic in a field hospital looking at the sediment in urine produced by a tough-as-nails sargeant with a urinary infection, who whimpered every time he had to urinate. Sharp corners, eh? PBarak 15:31, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

MMM
Thanks for working on the Masticatory muscle myositis article. I worked a bit on it too, as a dog owner whose dog was misdiagnosed and treated by antibiotics until the disease had largely done its worst. Boogie, a pedigree American Pit Bull Terrier with massive jaws, had massive swelling and eyeball protrusion (the pics are horrific) and lost sight in one eye. Still, he never complained of pain (a breed thing, I guess) but only of limited jaw motion. Two yrs out, he's recovered about 2/3 jaw movement and appears happy enough that I'm glad that I didn't put him down, but it was a slow road back. (--the struvite guy) PBarak 20:22, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- I added a horror pic to the MMM entry from my own collection. Let me know if there is more information that might make it more informative. Unfortunately, we did not document the progression of the illness in photos. PBarak 04:27, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- Pls go ahead and move the pic to Wikimedia Commons. Don't quite know how to myself, at this point, and anyway there are probably categories to be noted that I am unfamiliar with. PBarak 18:06, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Jellybeans
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/JellyBellyBeans.jpg/120px-JellyBellyBeans.jpg)
Here are some Jelly beans for you. I love jelly beans as they have sugar in them and most people love sugar. But on the other hand just receiving somthing from somone else just makes you happy and also just giving this to you makes me happy. I hope to spread the jelly beans all over Wikipedia, so here, you can have this lot. Please enjoy them. (I like the lime ones.)
Editors need a bit of a sugar high too.

Corneal ulcer article creation relevant to humans
Thanks for letting me know at the WP:Eye talk pages for the Wikiproject on Ophthalmology. I have removed redirects, refined the information for human perspective and removed items concerning the animals, which is appropriately contained in Corneal ulcers in animals. I will try to find some pictures for the article. I need some help with the creation of infobox and referencing, along with general proofreading for grammatical errors thay may have inadvertently crept in. EyeMD T|C 14:04, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Blocking my IP
Since this is a shared IP, I would recommend blocking users from this IP who are not logged in.
My sincerest apologies for whomever else might be using this address. This is a corporate IP, so I don't understand why it seems like some angsty kid is vandalising pages. But if it prevents stupid edits, I'm willing to take the hit of making a username.

Thanks on the CA article
Thanks for your useful contributions to cerebellar abiotrophy. I am a horse owner, so less familiar with the condition in dogs. I really appreciate your additions to the dog section and the definition of abiotrophy. Much appreciated! Montanabw 20:41, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

I tell you mate, wood oaks jnr high is the most vandalised page i have in my watch list and i have a large watch list. I think its time i thaught about putting a semi protect on it. Let me know what you think mate.CheetahKeeper 07:36, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject Veterinary Medicine
I boldly moved it to projectspace, Wikipedia:WikiProject Veterinary Medicine, to get the ball rolling. Wikiprojects often work in spurts and fits of activity, so don't be surprised if it's quiet. Always be bold, with wikiprojects especially :) They're often just used as reference for ongoing tasks, without any discussions taking place; Wikiproject cats has been silent for months. (I was just poking at cleaning/creating {{Veterinary medicine}} today, from the huge seealso lists, and remembered this project being mentioned at Cats.) I'll leave a note for the other editors listed as being interested, and leave the rest to you all :) --Quiddity 06:16, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Ok; I will have a look, and revert to the last clearly non-copyvio edit.--Anthony.bradbury 21:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
- I have done this, but the article now is a poor week thing and needs rapid expansion. The copyvio text was added immediately after this revision, and survived a number of edits, including yours.--Anthony.bradbury 21:27, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image (Image:Love_American_Style_Beastie_Boys.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Love_American_Style_Beastie_Boys.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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.

Categories and tagging
Hi - I would like to volunteer to go through and check all the Vet Med project with class=NA on the ctegory pages and slowly check the articles as well - but felt rather than post this to the project page - check with you first/or if i start explain what I am doing - in the Australia and subsidiary projects that I have worked on the non article pages are identified and are locatable much easier than if they remain untagged - it is usually lists, category pages that have the NA tag - and it then makes the rest of the project idetnifiable as aricles to be assessed. It seems to make sense and i am suprised i have seen some projects who dont use this management tool at all! SatuSuro 02:37, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- I just remember why i didnt post it first to project talk page - the wp vet med template might need coding to accept the class NA in it... that was it SatuSuro 02:51, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Ooops - less assessment - more just trying to get the arts with a tag first - there might be some subject areas and items i wouldnt be very good at assessing (my late father was the vet - ive inherited his books records and other things...) my main concern is for what some get very bored at doing - just tagging articles and trying to make sure that most obvious articles are at least identified within the categories. I'll check a few things and get back to you.. SatuSuro 14:41, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Nah the assessment thing hasnt been factored in - It might take a bit to do that. another oops. I might need to get help. SatuSuro 14:44, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Re your question at my talk (sorry) - i think all items that are related should be linked to the project by tagging - the current tag is great for a projet that is not assessing its articles - but if you are using assessment the insides of the template need changing to allow for assessment and the NA tag. SatuSuro 14:53, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Someone else has done it what a relief - sorry to clog your talk page likethis SatuSuro 23:48, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Fun?
Not. There are always tricks - john carter has fixed one part so far - but i think we have to watch carefully - the previously made tags i think will simply pick up on the new - or maybe we need to re-tag them I am not 100% sure SatuSuro 00:37, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Nah there is a coding glitch - the Not assessed arts shopuld just belong there - but they seem to be picking up another cat as well - I have to get off soon so might have to check with john carter later SatuSuro 00:40, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Admins here in Oz tralia have said to always be patient with the stuff such as server lag (not as bad as last night though) and etc - so tommorrow will try checking again -and checking about the extra cat showing up on the na pages as well SatuSuro 01:25, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
- John Carters work has ben great - have just enlisted the help of one of the very experienced oz admins to look at the issue of getting Categories in the Vet Med article category page - so things are looking good! SatuSuro 04:07, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
- If you see my comments at john carters and the project talk pages - when assessments start happening it will be a mess - but thats my sense - as there will be articles assessed and unassesable items in the same category - which is why the projects i have been associated with so far keep 'em separate. However I would rather see input from others rather than dictate to the project! as for server lag - there are some funny things happening in florida or wherever - at least 2 hours lost last night - cheers SatuSuro 15:09, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
- Fine - no problem - I am just letting you know that when assessment really locks in that there will be the mix. But for the project - to get things going - I just hope I havent been getting in the way too much (I have two jack russells that might explain something) cheers SatuSuro 15:21, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
- Sent a gmail just then - basically NA - means not assessable - in most projects - that means lists, and categories - as they have no content that can be assessed. As a consequence they are fundamentally different from normal articles that are assessable through the parallel issues of class and importance SatuSuro 15:41, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
- See youre plodding on - I would suggest a look at assessment pages at other projects would be better than anyone trying to explain to you here - Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/Assessment seems to have it well laid out - maybe that would be worth looking at SatuSuro 14:27, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks
just thought i's say thanks for the info you provided for the "beast of dean" i'll try to get a stub out as soon as i can. -Ryan shell 16:22, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Yo
That little box can make all the difference - well done! SatuSuro 01:12, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Wow I have just found the assessment page - whew! you have been hard at work! SatuSuro 01:18, 8 June 2007 (UTC) The very important point is - with something like that up - there is a much clearer and prettier part of the project that can actually attract hesitant think about it type editors who have seeen partially crated projects but cannot see the dimensions that are illustrated by such a view - hey its getting somewhere! SatuSuro 01:25, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Sendai
Hey, I noted you swung by and added the Vet tag to the Sendai virus article. Is there some way you or I might be able to mention the Sendai article in the WikiProject Vet pages, to mark it for perusal from other WikiProject Vet members? -EarthRise33 00:13, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
- Wonderful. Thanks for your help in this. -EarthRise33 00:36, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

On Sound Opinions Jim DeRogatis asked people to kill Bono. I said that in his bio. Instead I get a warning. Jim DeRogatis is a complete piece of trash who shouldn't have a page.

The horse "guys"
Thanks for the heads up. Is there a master list of all the articles that you have tagged? It would be the easiest way for us to sort through them. Cannot guarantee this will go to the very top of my to do list, but it sounds like more fun than trolling the 450 pages on my watchlist for vandalism! Montanabw 01:47, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
- Equine Exertional Rhabdomyolysis, or "tying up," is not directly genetic (but possibly so) and is not precisely the same condition as Equine polysaccharide storage myopathy (EPSM) which is unquestionably genetic. (but the quality of the article totally sucks). A merge tag would not be appropriate, but a cross ref in the see also might be. Also a cross ref to HYPP may also be wise, as that is yet another disorder of a similar type and a dominant gene to boot. Montanabw(talk) 21:32, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I just became wiser on the US copyright laws. I was under the impression that work of govt applied to all state funded work. Was not aware that it applied only to Federal work. So I marked that image for deletion. Thanks for pointing it out on my commons page. Shyamal 07:04, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

EIA - statistics needed
In Equine infectious anemia you have removed some text and link which shows an interessting fact of EIA (non-existent statistics on EIA mortality), but since you didnt add any additional information or statistics I'd like to ask you to either undo this specific edit or provide statistics or at least links to this information.

Category:Sheep and goat diseases
Hi, I have just created a summary of important infectious sheep and goat diseases. I put the list into Category:Sheep and goat diseases but I am not sure with this.
