Welcome to WikiProject Mesoamerica

Hi there Mdcarrasco- I'd just like to add my note of welcome here as well; I've noted your helpful improvements on the Palenque article and your interest and expertise on Maya & Mesoamerican topics. As you can see, there's a relatively small number of us around here actively and consistently involved in improving our coverage and content for meso-related topics, and there is much to be done- so any time and effort you are able to spare in expanding on the material would be gratefully received.

If you've any questions on wikipedia's at-times arcane procedures and practices, or anything of general note you'd like to discuss or propose, please feel free to leave a message at my user talk page, contact any of the other WP:MESO project members, or just post to the Project's messageboard and we'll do our best to help.

Anyways, hope you find your editing experience around here satisfying, and thanks again for your contributions. Cheers, --cjllw ʘ TALK 09:22, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ps. I gather from some of the links you've added, that the excellent Unaahil B'aak / Palenque website is one of yours..? Always glad to see some folks active in the research field around here; a couple of other project participants have 'mesoamericanist day-jobs', (eg User:Oaxaca dan, User:Chunchucmil), while others are linguists, students, or generally just have an interest in the field- quite an assortment of backgrounds really, but it all tends to work together reasonably harmoniously, as I hope you will find.

Thank you for your welcome. I am trying to learn the basics here. I am not sure how much time I have to put into things since I have a number of other projects and we get no credit in academia for things like this that seem to reach a large audience, but of course I am interested in helping as much as possible. As for the Unaahil B'aak website, that is one of mine, but I did not put in the link initially, just cleaned up one of the references. I am glad that someone did but I will try to reframe from citing that site since parts of it represent original research that may or may not be accepted by the larger community. I have no problem citing my own published articles, but these have been through a review process. In fact, I am quite interested in the notion and method of peer review of digital publications and works. In any event thank you all for your greetings. --Mdcarrasco 03:10, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Hey, no worries; and quite understand constraints of time and availability. Whatever fits in with your timetable will be great, no matter how infrequent. If you run into anything too abstruse in the workings around here, or can think of a way to improve things, pls don't hesitate to ask around. Cheers, --cjllw ʘ TALK 08:45, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Set01c.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Set01c.jpg. I noticed that 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, then 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, then 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-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 04:41, 9 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Mschel 04:41, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
