Ways to improve Ropalidia plebeiana

Hi, I'm Animalparty. Jamiehalpern, thanks for creating Ropalidia plebeiana!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please consider elaborating, there are thousands of wasp species!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. --Animalparty-- (talk) 03:37, 10 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Ropalidiaplebeiana.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Ropalidiaplebeiana.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 22:05, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jamie. I noticed that on this image you included a note saying "Obtained email permission from Peter Chew". I'm glad you did this, but Wikipedia needs explicit permission from the copyright owner in order for this to work. Please see c:Commons:OTRS for more information about how you can get this done formally.

Sorry about the hassle, but Wikipedia needs to know that we have proper permission to use copyright material. Thanks Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 12:32, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for October 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.
