Hypsiglena torquata / jani

Hi, is this Hypsiglena torquata or Hypsiglena jani? The image is currently used for both species, like here for Hypsiglena jani and here for Hypsiglena torquata. I cant id this snake because they are so much alike. Greetz, -B kimmel (talk) 16:16, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

It is most definitely a jani, I caught it myself in Edwards county, Texas which doesn't overlap ranges with any other species of Hypsiglena to my knowledge. I think the confusion stems from the fact that jani used to be considered a subspecies of Hypsiglena torquata, but was only recently reclassified as its own species and most of the literature, including Wikipedia, but especially print sources, simply haven't caught up yet.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Goat blanket, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Coat (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Image copyright problem with File:Hartman Prehistoric Garden.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Hartman Prehistoric Garden.jpg.

This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work.

Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
