Hello Bruce. I kept the image as it might be useful for users on many Wikimedia projects as well as to OpenStreetMap. Thank you for your contributions! --Kimse (talk) 04:32, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 05:41, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Images[edit]
Heheh, couldn't resist, there were some very rare animals! There are a few unlabeled ones though, did you label all the ones with visible name signs? FunkMonk (talk) 04:08, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
