[edit] Remark on licensing
Some of my offered photographs and illustrations are marked with a reference to the Museum Wiesbaden - Natural History Collection (MWNH) (Naturhistorische Sammlung), where I'm working. In a case like that the object is housed in this collection, but the photograph is made by myself and the work is out of copyright. In addition there is usually no common copyright on natural objects, like in art. Natural objects are collected and stored for scientific studies and education.

[edit] Categories and articles
I'm specially interested in the catgeory Diptera (Flies). So I try to support the arrangement system of images. Some topics have specific guidelines for the organisation of media, such as plants and animals which fall under the WikiProject Tree of Life. Therefore I used only categries for the images up to the systematic level of families (e.g. Category:Asilidae) in the past. Identified species were only stored in articles (e.g. Dioctria atricapilla) - without adding a category. There are several arguments pro and contra. Nevertheless users and administrators discussed that very detailed and the new conclusion is offered on Categories vs Galleries. Now we have to add categories for all media. The proposed policy with discussion at the Tree of Life project can be found here:
- Tree of Life - Images
- Tree of Life - Articles
- Tree of Life - Categories
- Tree of Life - Bot proposal
- User talk
Unfortunately, I have to accept it, too.
