Calakmul[edit]

Note: On Calakmul, you seem to have removed a direct external link to a page relevent to that site and replaced it with the front page of the site with the instruction to "click on Calakmul". That gets the same page, but with an unneeded extra step in the process. When possible, direct links to relevent external pages are prefered. Cheers, -- Infrogmation 16:05, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message on my user talk page; I replied there. I'm glad to have you participating here. Cheers, -- Infrogmation 14:14, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Mesoamerica[edit]

Hi there Chunchucmil- firstly I'd just like to echo my colleague Infrogmation's words of welcome, it's always good to see new contributors. Thanks for your fine work on the eponymous Chunchucmil article; if as it seems Mesoamerican archaeology is your field of expertise, then you may possibly be interested in WikiProject Mesoamerica, a collaborative project formed by some wikipedia editors with the intention of coordinating the expansion and improvements to Mesoamerica-related materials around here. You'd be most welcome to drop by there and help out; there are only about half-a-dozen or so folks who are active at any given time working regularly on Mesoamerica-related articles, and so any and all assistance given is much appreciated.

From your edits and the links and map you have added it occurs to me that you may actually be David Hixson of Tulane U. ? If so, you are doubly welcome. I'd also like to ask, in addition to providing links to the excellent Mesoamerican site images at your mesoamerican archives.com site, if you would consider releasing a small selection of these to included on the relevant wikipedia articles themselves? It can be quite difficult to obtain suitable images of Mesoamerican archaeological sites, particularly those which are 'off the tourist trail', that are obtainable under the types of free licenses that wikipedia requires in order to avoid copyright infringement.

Of course there would be some implications to consider as copyright holder in providing any images to wikipedia under one of the several different "free" license types, see in particular Wikipedia copyrights, Image Use policy, Image license types and copyrights assistance pages for further information.

I'd be happy to attempt to answer any questions you may have, just drop me a note on my talk page here. Alternatively (and you may prefer not to publicly disclose personal info here which is quite understandable) you could email me- just go to my user page and select the "email this user" link (should appear somewhere in the toolbox to the right of screen). I will however not be online very much over the next couple of weeks and so may not be able to respond until the new year, but Infrogmation or a number of other contributors in the project here may well be around if you would like a prompter reply. Best regards, --cjllw | TALK 01:54, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yukatek->Yucatec[edit]

Thanks for your input on Mayan Languages - I've reverted the spelling per your suggestion. It would be great if you had anything to add to the literature section of that page.--Homunq 06:13, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for helping improve WP:Mesoamerica[edit]

It looks like we are finally going to be able to get a real move on the project. There are so many areas of Mesoamericanistics that need attention but now we are working on some of them.

Thanks plus request[edit]

Dear Chunchucmil, thanks for the Chunchucmil image. Can you please reupload it to the Wikimedia Commons? I am translating into Russian articles about Maya sites but cannot use images from them, since they are uploaded only to the English Wikipedia. Thanks! --Dmitri Lytov (talk) 12:09, 8 February 2009 (UTC) === Which photos are not in the Wiki Commons? I will gladly upload them. Chunchucmil (talk) 20:15, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Adding proper citation tags for images[edit]

All images uploaded by Chunchucmil have full permissions from the person or persons who created them. DO NOT DELETE ANY IMAGES ON THE CHUNCHUCMIL PAGE. All images were created by, or are owned by, Chunchucmil. If Wikipedia needs me to tag them with some additional information, just let me know how to do so. But deleting them off the server is completely unnecessary. Magog the Ogre needs to provide more explicit instructions on how to properly tag the images if they do not meet certain guidelines. As of now, all of what I considered relevant to the images is included in the "comment" section of each image's metadata.Chunchucmil (talk) 21:10, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please see {{di-no permission-notice}} for an explanation on how to go about providing permission. Once you've gone through with that, please feel free to remove the no source tag, although an expalantion of how you got the image would be helpful (e.g., you personally know the uploader). Magog the Ogre (talk) 23:58, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent a permissions email for all of the images I have uploaded. Please remove all "no source" tags. I created most of the images myself, or those images were produced on my behalf. Therefore I have exclusive rights to upload and distribute those images as I wish.Chunchucmil (talk) 13:04, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Done - was the permission only for the images I noted above, or for all images you've ever uploaded on Wikipedia? Magog the Ogre (talk) 14:11, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I sent a letter providing permissions for every image I uploaded, with the exception of the modified map that was created by a Wikipedia Mesoamerica Project editor (map of mesoamerica with Chunchucmil's location highlighted). That image has a proper attribution to the original document. Located at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chunchucmil-Mesoamerica-Map.png
