Please don't take at face value anything you find at a WP or Wikimedia Commons image page. In my experience, about half the time the uploader was sloppy at best, fraudulent at worst. This image is an example. A rule-of-thumb is to never cite the Wikipedia page or Wikimedia Commons page as the source ''unless the uploader is also the author of the image'', and even then doubt they are the author if it seems you maybe shouldCite the original source of the image ''after first checking to see if what is written at the upload page abut the source is true''.  
Charles, your [[mastodon]] article will need to be moved to [[mastodon (rock band)]], or something similar so that it
can be distinguished from the prehistoric animal from which they took their name. If I move it, you will be lost in the history, so I would like you to move the page so it shows you are the original author.  Simply go to the [[mastodon]] page and click on the "Move" button, and type in the new nameBy the way, I am a big music lover of all kinds and a bass player.  Thanks, [[User:David E.

This is an image that, ''regrettably'', appears to be an a gray area. The original source, the original piece of artwork, is of course, Public Domain.  ''However'', the museum, [http://www.chs.org/ The Connecticut Historical Society], who holds the lone instance of the work, asserts restriction rights over their digitized image of it.  These restrictions ''are unrelated to copyright law'' but related to contract law.  Basically, if you enter their website to view the image, you agree to use the image per their terms.  If you don't, you can't even view the image.  While all that ''may'' be legally dubious, should push come to shove, let's just do the work to get the museum to release the image to Citizendium.
: Thanks Charles. [[User:David E. Volk|David E. Volk]] 09:56, 9 July 2008 (CDT)


The image will be be ale to be used in one way or another. I have commented out the image on the article for now.  Meanwhile, I will myself deal with the museum to use the image.  It may take a month, but I'll keep you updated.

Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via Twitter. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! -- Stephen Ewen 01:16, 4 June 2007 (CDT)

Image

Charles, drop back by Image:Tschaikowski.jpg and add the image's source, where you got it, who took it, where it was published, that sort of thing. Thanks. Stephen Ewen 20:38, 25 June 2007 (CDT)

I actually got it from Wikipedia, I have added the image page link and have asked the user who uploaded it for the author. --Charles Sandberg 20:51, 25 June 2007 (CDT)

spelling

Charles, thanks for the correction! Not to worry, though; that second "l" gets dropped all the time. Just on the level of personal trivia, my parents named me after Lord Bertrand Russell. Cheers, Russell Potter 19:17, 5 July 2007 (CDT)

Tchaikovsky

Where did you get the nationalism bit? Also, I've altered the wording about his homosexuality, more hushed up than anything else, and not widely known about in the west, I'd venture, until the 1960s. Regards, Ro Thorpe 18:27, 8 November 2007 (CST)

I know that. I was referring to when the article read: 'Yet Russian critics called him nationalistic...' I was asking where you got that, if it was you, considering they already had Balakirev & co to have a go at for that. Ro Thorpe 19:23, 10 November 2007 (CST)

Aha! I've restored your original order, as I think it reads better - Ro Thorpe 09:48, 11 November 2007 (CST)

Mastodon

Charles, your mastodon article will need to be moved to mastodon (rock band), or something similar so that it can be distinguished from the prehistoric animal from which they took their name. If I move it, you will be lost in the history, so I would like you to move the page so it shows you are the original author. Simply go to the mastodon page and click on the "Move" button, and type in the new name. By the way, I am a big music lover of all kinds and a bass player. Thanks, David E. Volk 15:49, 8 July 2008 (CDT)
