  • Source to upload from: [1]
    • Do the media URLs follow a pattern? You can page through the 22 page gallery with query param but each page has multiple images:[2]
    • Does the site have an API? No
    • What else could ease uploading? (is the site valid XHTML, do they use a WCM…?) N/A
    • Did you contact the site owner? No
  • Describe the works to be uploaded in detail (audio files, images by …):

Images of mites that parasitise bees.

  • Which license tag(s) should be applied?

The images are released under public domain however there are a small number which are not. Any image which is not credited, or credited to one of a particular set of people is PD, see here: http://idtools.org/id/mites/beemites/about_copyright.php (but there are some from Flikr etc used with permission and a small number under copyright, these are attributed in the caption).

So one would have to parse the caption looking for a byline and exclude those probably. This page has an example of the three different types of captions with attribution it may have: http://idtools.org/id/mites/beemites/bmites_lifestages.php

  • Is there a template that could be used on the file description pages? Do you think a special template should be created?

Not sure. Should be categorised as Category:Acari.
