Naturalis herbarium? File:MJBC_TEST_sandbox_Herbarium_Types_LAU00011TEST.jpg

Dear Davidoid,

Thank you for your herbarium sheets. I just wondered:

• are they from Naturalis (Category:Media donated by NBC)? The first "version" seems from Switzerland, the second is called LAU, Lausanne?
• you overwrote a first sheet by a different one, that is not a new version, but a different image: shouldn't it get a separate new file name?
• species not specified, it i not Anemone hortensis isn't it?
• permission should not be CC-something, but public domain PD-Art-100, because the author is deceased more than 100 years ago.

Perhaps you used the Naturalis metadata lay-out and accidentally put the Category:Media donated by NBC in? This category is reserved for donations by Naturalis (i did lots of those uploads) and for derivative works (cut outs, enhanced images etc.).

So for the time being i remove Category:Media donated by Naturalis Biodiversity Center from that file. If you can show me that they are from Naturalis, i would be glad !
