Hi
We are writing a book on spices and herbs.
The title is “Krydderleksikon med urter og smakstilsetninger” (Encyclopedia of spices and herbs). Print run is 5000 copies and the book will be published in May this year. It will be illustrated with photos of all the plants.
Most of the photos are already provided for but we still miss some picture.
We have found your photo of Skaftafell on the Internet and we wonder if you kindly will let us use the photo in our book.

For more information about us and the book please contact us on: post(a)vegaforlag.no - www.vegaforlag.no
Best regards Gitte
Lauretanische Litanei
Hallo Xenophon!
Auf der deutschen Wikipedia-Seite Lauretanische Litanei steht ein Bild von dir aus Osterhofen. Lt. Text ist es "Virgo prudentissima", dargestellt ist aber eine Gestalt mit Spiegel. In der Wikimedia-Kategorie zu der Kapelle gibt es aber kein Bild von "Speculum iustititae".
Könnte es sein, dass in deinem Bildausschnitt tatsächlich "Spiegel der Gerechtigkeit" bildlich dargestellt ist, das Spruchband "Virgo prudentissima" aber zu einem anderen Bildteil gehört und hier nur versehentlich ins Bild geraten ist? Das ist sicher nur aus einer Gesamtsicht der Kapelle heraus zu beurteilen.
Die Frage der richtigen Bildunterschrift ist im deutschen Wikipedia nämlich gerade strittig gewesen. --Der wahre Jakob (talk) 20:36, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

I notice you are still contributing to the stained glass galleries. I want to draw your attention to this file, and the other uploads from the same church in Gotland. These windows were, with only two exceptions, dated 1240. Regardless of the source of the information, this is ridiculous. Most of the windows have a date (more or less decipherable but clearly either 1900 or 1960). I eventually eliminated 1960 as a possibility, because they are all the work of a single individual, C. Vilhelm Petterson, who name appears in many of the windows with the date 1900.
Strangely enough, the only two genuine Medieval windows, those on which Petterson had based all the other windows, were the two for which no date had been given.
Perhaps you misunderstood the written source that you cited. However, the first rule of anyone who attempts to catalogue stained glass is to use you eyes. Many 19th and early 20th century windows or very heavily restored windows masquerade as "Medieval". However, almost all modern (ie 18-21st century) windows are dated and signed. Also, don't be fooled by "commemorative" dates. A dedication reading "In Loving Memory of Jeremiah Bloggs 1754-1834", is most unlikely to have been installed in 1834. It might be thirty or more years later. In the 19th century, style is a major indicator of date, as the art of stained glass was "a fashion" and thousands of windows were being installed. Simultaneously, many artists like Petterson, were imitating Medieval windows, particularly for restoration jobs.
Best wishes, Amandajm (talk) 06:27, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks! I agree that Pettersen has done a good job of restoring those windows of which part remained, and reproducing the style in the others. One of the things that is an indication (if there is not inscription to go by) is that genuine Medieval glass will have multiple breakages, so that long borders will show that several pieces of glass that was one long strip, identifiable by texture and colour, have cracked as the lead subsided or with the pressure of wind, and have been repaired with thin strips of lead, generally much thinner than the main leadlines. Modern (mid to late 20th century) repairs may show thick clumsy joints and strips. Old glass may have "spider-web" shatters that have been carefully repaired rather than replaced, cracks right across faces, and other such. Old repairs tend to retain as much medieval glass as possible, and include salvaged bits that don't quite match. 19th century restorers were much more arrogant and would take out cracked pieces and replace them. Modern conservation standards such as those of ICOMOS have gone a long way towards encouraging the repair of old glass rather than replacement with similar but modern glass. One wonders what was in the windows that Pettersen replaced. Amandajm (talk) 02:44, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
Hallo und schönen guten Morgen,
Sollte die Datierung hier nicht eher 1678 sein? --Jwh (talk) 08:24, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Denkmäler in Österreich
Hallo Xenophon, ich habe gesehen, dass du hauptsächlich als Fotograph unterwegs bist. Konkret bin ich darauf gestoßen, dass du Carnuntum vor mir besichtigt hast :-) .
Vielleicht hast du schon in der de-wiki das derzeit laufende Projekt de:Portal:Österreich/Denkmallisten gesehen, das sich mit der Erfassung aller vom Bundesdenkmalamt geführter Denkmäler beschäftigt. Einen großen Teil des Projektes machen dabei ja auch Fotos aus. Vielleicht findest du dabei auch eine Möglichkeit wikipedia dabei zu unterstützen und Österreich vollständiger darzustellen. einen lg aus dem Wienerwald K@rl (talk) 06:07, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Uheberechtsverletzung
Du bezeichnest dich hier gemäß der Lizenzangabe als "Ich, der Urheberrechtsinhaber dieses Werkes". Die Karte Palenque.jpg ist aber offensichtlich lediglich abfotografiert. Auch fehlen jegliche weitere Quellenangaben. Ich habe die karte entsprechend als URV markiert. --Dnfg (talk) 13:23, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Weißenburg
Besten Dank für die Fotos vom Weißenburger Schatzfund. Ich habe gerade in der de-WP einen Artikel zum Thema Limesfall verfasst [1], wo auch die Schatzfunde thematisiert werden. Fotos der schönen Metallfunde sind wirklich rar. Das hält mich auch bisher davon ab, Artikel zu den sicher relevanten Schätzen zu schreiben, obwohl ich die Literatur teils zu Hause, teils an der Uni leicht verfügbar habe. Mit Weißenburg kann ich dank Deiner Fotos jetzt loslegen. Du hast nicht zufällig auch andere Teile des Schatzes (z.B. die Votivbleche) fotografiert? --Haselburg-müller (talk) 14:03, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
Museumskategorien
Hallo Xenophon!
Erstmal vielen Dank für deine zahlreichen Bild- und Kategorisierungsbeiträge!
Nur eine kleine Bitte für das Erstellen neuer Unterkategorien bei Museen: Beispiel Category:Oberhausmuseum: Ich habe die Unterkategorie mit der Bezeichnung Category:OHM - xyz in Category:Oberhausmuseum - xyz umbenannt. Aus Gründen der besseren Verständlichkeit sollte keine "kryptischen" Abkürzungen bei solchen Kategorien vorgenommen werden.
Bitte in Zukunft einfach ausschreiben.
Es mag penibel klingen, aber auch diese Kategorie Category:Pfarrkirche Mariae Himmelfahrt ( Niederwaldkirchen ) keine Abstände zwischen Wort und "Umklammerung" lassen. Also richtigerweise sollte es so aussehen Category:Pfarrkirche Mariae Himmelfahrt (Niederwaldkirchen).
Viele Dank im voraus!
Viele Grüße und hoffentlich noch viele weitere gute Beiträge! --High Contrast (talk) 14:44, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
Ludolf, der Bischof von Magdeburg, wie er in der Beschreibung genannt wird, war m. W. kein Prämonstratenser und auch kein Heiliger. Kann es sein, dass hier der Prämonstratenserheilige w:de:Ludolf I. (Ratzeburg), der Bischof von Ratzeburg war, gemeint ist? Dann würde das "Ep. M." vielleicht "Episcopus (et) Martyr" heißen. --FA2010 (talk) 21:43, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
