:Hi Martin, when you go through the upload process there is a pretty good step by step guide. however, i just discovered that it has not been completed with respect to the public domain content (drop down menu does not have correct options. i will look into improving that option. Meanwhile just look at the notes I added for the [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=Image:Socrates_and_Plato.jpg&action=edit plato socrates picture]. I am unsure if I did it 100% correctly and there are a lot of gaps with respect to the background info on the picture. It's a start though.

I contribute to citizendium as I got banned from wikipedia for disruptive editing. I still edit at wikipedia, and have tried with various aliases and proxies, but they always hunt me down. I don't understand their problem. Fortunately, citizendium is far more accommodating and allows me to write whatever i wish with no checks and balances. At least, no one has deleted any of my stuff yet. Chris Day 21:44, 3 November 2008 (UTC)OK, I admit it, thats all lies. :) I'll have to think a bit. Chris Day 21:46, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
Thanks!
That looks very useful.
Cheers! George Swan 01:20, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
Yes, thanks for the advice. Sorry we had that discussion on Greg's page, though. --Russell D. Jones 16:12, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi Chris. See Template_talk:Credit. Stephen Ewen 16:51, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
Years
Hi Chris, I need your help with {{Years}}, such that it works properly via {{years}} for pagenames like 2006 and via {{years|1984}} for pagenames like 1984 (year). I think I am close but I do not see how to address the page name itself, and I have to go offline now. Thanks! --Daniel Mietchen 19:32, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- See the edit I just made. Does that fix it? Chris Day 19:51, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, that was it - thanks. --Daniel Mietchen 20:10, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
Morton National Park, and stuff
Chris, thanks for helping with the metadata pages. As you probably guessed, I was having a bug* of a day and kept getting interrupted.
Re Fitzroy Falls, that sure looks like it. Great photo, thanks!

Renaming images
Hi Chris, I noticed the typo in the name of Image:ComparitiveBrainSize.jpg but didn't see how to rename the file. Is there a way to do this without re-uploading it? Thanks, --Daniel Mietchen 20:50, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure you will have to upload the image again. Is that a problem? Chris Day 23:13, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
Philosophy strategies
Thanks for your feedback, Chris.
BTW -in passing your fine images above! - can you tell me how I can upload the image (of Plato and Socrates) indicated as needing uploading on the Plato page? I'm not the creator or copyright owner, I undestand it is 'outside copyright' (it is also on WP Commons)? Any advice would be appreciated.
