Editing Biological_classification.svg
Hi there. I've made some tweaks to your image on biological classification (just tweaking colours and typefaces, hope you don't mind!) but I can't find anywhere to upload a new version, and I didn't want to create a new file. Could you tell me where I could do this? Thanks so much. Mr.absurd 22:56, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Greenhouse Mafia and Lonie Report
I appreciate your thanking me for contributing Greenhouse Mafia.
The Lonie Report of 1980 is proof to me that vested interests have been dictating government policy in Australia for a lot longer than Howard has been Prime Minister. The ability of mineral and car companies to control transport and energy policy probably dates back to the "Northern Development" mania of the Menzies era, which gave companies access to by far the largest mineral deposits on Earth and allowed them to not only control politicians but also to dictate who gets promoted to the road and public transport bureaucracies - making sure the road bureaucracy is much more effective and assertive than the public transport one.

User:Pengo/taxotest
Right, sorry about this, but that page has found its way into three article categories. These are categories that readers will use to navigate the encyclopedia and find pages similar to the one they are already reading, and so it is innappropriate for userpages to find their way in. As a temporary solution, I have blanked the page. In future, please try to avoid placing it into those categories- perhaps create a mirror of the templates or something, without the cats. J Milburn 09:56, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- Change of plan, I am not blanking, another user is dealing with it with WP:AWB. J Milburn 09:58, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- No worries. If they get bored with AWB I don't mind it being blanked really. —Pengo 09:59, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- I was going to use AWB until I realized all the categories were added via transcluded templates, so looks like blanking it is. Feel free to recreate a subst'd version of the page without categories, though. VegaDark 10:04, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Ap indonesia activist munir 2101.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ap indonesia activist munir 2101.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Misplaced Pages articles constitutes fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Finny.svg, by Strangerer, another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages.

Concern regarding citation added to Gunns#Gunns 20
I'm a little uneasy about the citation you added to the referenced section, because I really don't think it meets WP:NOR being a information from a primary participant in the case. If it was say a link to a news article reporting on the case that covered the claims of the participants then it would pass. However, because the page in question being linked to is a primary source and is heavy on POV it really shouldn't be included particularly given the emotional and highly charged nature of the subject matter being covered. Please contact me via my talk page with any questions. Cheers, Thewinchester 07:17, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
- The claim it's supporting is that opposing parties consider the case to be silencing criticism, so of course it's going to be someone with that POV saying it. —Pengo 07:23, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
- That's kind of the point i'm getting at. If we can find another source for this it would be much better all things considered. It's fine if they've said it, ensuring that the comment was reported by a media or similar organisation which meets the secondary sources criteria, it would be the better reference to use. Thewinchester 07:28, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
- He said it, He's said that he's said it. Why do you think we need another source to say that he's said what he says he's said? —Pengo 07:42, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Stalk (botany)
Hi! The redirect you made from Stalk (botany) to the disambiguation page Stem is, sorry to say, very unhelpful. The page doesn't have any relation to stalk as a botanical term, nor does even Plant stem (which I assume you intended) mention the term "stalk" in any single point. Do you think you could start an article for Stalk (botany), or if you think it's not worth an article, at least add the term somewhere in Plant stem? I know I can't, so that's why I'm asking. Actually, even a red link to Stalk (botany) would be more helpful, since then somebody with more knowledge could do the job, seeing it's not already done... Thanks! Malhonen 20:40, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Tuna in Australia
Hi there. I was reading out tuna article and noticed a paragraph that you seem to have added here (apologies if I've parsed the edits incorrectly). I'm a little confused by it. What else would be in the can (i.e. taking up the other 49%)? Now that the standard has been "dropped", does that mean that you could sell a completely empty can and call it tuna? To be honest, I first thought it was a prank edit, but you're obviously no vandal. If you get a moment, perhaps you could clarify or rephrase...? Cheers! Matt Deres 23:27, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

wiki-nonsense talk
There is no guideline or policy whatsoever that makes it necessary to source a "secure" status in the absence of disagreement over it. Look at Verbascum thapsus and if you can find a good way to source that...
Also, single-paragraph sections, especially ones as short as the one you were recreating, are strongly discouraged by the manual of style, and have long been a criterion for opposing at FAC. splitting that paragraph into its section for the sole purpose of internal-linking is at best misguided, at worst petty (as if the "name and symbolism" section wasn't troublesome enough already!). Circeus 01:57, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- I don't care for unreferenced duck-y "secure". I do care about people improperly replacing that with a "Least concern" category, though (because least concern is only okay for species formally assessed vy the IUCN). In my opinion, a species should be marked "secure" in the absence of a global statement to the contrary, or controversy over status. If a species is not in any endangerment category, then what should we call it if not "secure"? Circeus 03:34, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- Nothing. It should be left blank. Status means a status from some external authority. The reader can decide for him or herself when reading the article that the species is not threatened with extinction. But if no one else has said it, we don't. —Pengo 03:52, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
thoughts on the nature of humanity
Pengo, you noted "Sex for enjoyment " as a defining feature of humanity. I want to present the counter-argument that this is actually an effect of a different characteristic that sets us apart, even from bonobos. Whereas most animal species have an almost entirely food, shelter, and sex-centric society, humanity has achieved relative security with these basics throughout much of our history (the only great threat to us has been ourselves) and is notable because it is the only species which has been capable of marginalizing the necessity for sex. Sex is not the top thing on everyone's mind for our species, and that has allowed us to make significant advances in a great many other areas. Additionally, marginalizing sex in this way has turned it into a partly recreational activity. OcciMoron 15:39, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your thoughts on the nature of humanity.. the idea that "Sex for enjoyment" sets humans (& bonobos) apart from the other animals isn't my own idea.. and i have it listed under "Stupid theories on what sets humans apart" with a bunch of other half-witted theories for that reason.. (I'd like to start an article on these theories some day, or at least add them to the human article or the like).
- But you've made some interesting points.. But I have to say that observing various animals in the wild and at zoos, it seems that most animals spend the vast majority of their time doing something other than procreating. So it's hard to say their lives or societies are all that sex-centric. However, sex is still a necessity in the human and animal worlds. Relationships, love stories, and sex are central in any human culture. And I believe sex will only become a marginal activity when sex and reproduction are completely isolated from each other. Which I don't think the majority is ever going to like the idea of all that much, I don't think would ever be completely possible. —Pengo 21:59, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, animals do spend time doing other activities, but generally they are a means to the end of reproduction, all residing at the very lowest part of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Occasionally animals with high parental involvement make forays into the second level of that hierarchy, but that is only ever in a context of maintaining reproductive fitness. Humans have a *need* to fulfill the other categories, which has led to incredible staying power as a species. OcciMoron 15:37, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
- I don't accept Maslow's hierarchy as anything more than a moralistic hypothesis, with little basis in science (i.e. it's not testable, especially not with animals). There's no reason your argument that animals do all they do to aid reproduction (or the furthering of their kin) cannot apply to humans. The only difference with animals is that they can't tell you otherwise. —Pengo 00:21, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:BASIX logo.png
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:BASIX logo.png. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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 Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags#Fair use.

I noticed that you recently changed the lead picture in the taxobox of Superb Fairy-wren to one that, IMO, is more blurry because the other one is a composite between two images. I personally do not see a problem with a compiled image, particularly when it was done to include both the male and female of a sexually dimorphic species and was wondering if that was in the MOS somewhere. Thanks. Rufous-crowned Sparrow (talk) 21:15, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
MSW3 bot
Can you crank up a bot to add appropriate id numbers to all instances of the various MSW3 templates? The id numbers are contained in this 8.5 MB CSV file. See my talk page for more info. - UtherSRG (talk) 00:16, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
- No problem. Can you give me directions on how to do it myself? - UtherSRG (talk) 02:49, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Teletaxo
Hello Pengo, I'm Thanyakij (or Aqua) from Thai Misplaced Pages. I know that you are making the TeleTaxo. I'm just complete the new Intelli-TeleTaxo which can change the color follow the regnum and collapse un-important data so you can copy and change something to suit different conditions in En-Wiki's work. for a good example see เสือ and หลาวชะโอนทุ่ง. For more information, you can contact me at my user talk page. Enjoy your new taxobox. -- aIqCuEa • 04:59, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
