Revision as of 01:37, 10 August 2010
Image:Russian Blue 001.gif was uploaded from Commons without correct real name of author
The subject image was uploaded from Wikimedia Commons, using the pseudonym "Russkis" as the author. As can be seen here, the pseudonym of the original creator is MGA7. Looking at his user page discloses that he lives in Denmark and his first forename (given name) is Michael ... but his surname is not disclosed. I have posted a message on his user talk page here, asking him if he would give me his real surname and I am awaiting a response. If he gives me his real name, the image will be reloaded into this article. If he should fail to respond or responds negatively, then regretfully the image will need to be removed from Citizendium.

Photo removed from article upon notification
The photo was removed from the article and I left a notation in the page history last night. It was late so I did not leave a message until today. Here is notification the page was removed as it did not meet Citizendium photo upload standards. I apologize for the error as I was trying to learn how to do this. In the future, as I now know pseudonyms are not allowed, I will upload only photos with complete names.Mary Ash 19:38, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

- Mary, the pseudonym of the author is "Ruskis" and I was finally given her user page in the German Wikipedia. On her German user page, in the "Eigene Homepage" section, I found the URL of her cattery website to be Ruskis Schweiz. When I went there and clicked on the "In Englisch" link, and then searched her site, I found her real name to be Franziska Gabriela Waldmann (see About Me).
- If you wish, you could now return to Image:Russian Blue 001.gif and revise the file summary to use the author's real name. Just to be sure, it might be useful to first email her and ask if she has any objection to using her real name as the author of the photo. I found two email addresses for her: ruskis@gmx.ch and franziska.waldmann@q-cat.ch
- It's up to you now to decide if you want to email Franziska first and then revise the image file to use her real name. Milton Beychok 06:37, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
