Crocus

Hello Famberhorst. A couple of requests, if I may. First, when someone reverts an edit you make and provides a reason in their edit summary, please don't restore your edit as you did here. Instead, begin a discussion on the article's talk page, provide sound reasoning, and seek consensus. (See

WP:BRD for good advice on how that's supposed to work.) Second, please use edit summaries; it's very helpful to your fellow Wikipedians. I wonder if you'd mind undoing the edit in question? If you prefer, I can open a discussion at Talk:Crocus, although it's technically your duty to do that. RivertorchFIREWATER 07:34, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply

Good morning Rivertorch Thank you for your comments. I thought it was free to add a text or photo to a wikimedia page, for example. I do not master the English language. and sometimes does not understand it. What is there to add to an excellent photo about the subject? It is about the quality.
With kind regards,--
Famberhorst (talk) 07:51, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
PS; I hope that the translation by Google Translate is good.

Thanks for your reply. The photo you added is a nice one, but there are three problems:
  • There is already a photo of C. tommasinianus on the page, so that species is already illustrated.
  • The wording of your caption expresses an opinion, calling the subject "beautiful". (Of course, it is beautiful, but as an encyclopedia, we don't say that because we want to be neutral and objective.)
  • The second time you added it, you put it in twice: once in the gallery and also farther up the page.
Another editor has reverted you again, but if you still think the photo should be added, please feel free to explain why you think so at Talk:Crocus. Happy editing! RivertorchFIREWATER 15:21, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your picture "Krokussen (Crocus), Locatie, Tuinreservaat Jonkervallei"

Dear,

I have seen that you have re-uploaded your picture Krokussen (Crocus), Locatie, Tuinreservaat Jonkervallei on the page Crocus tommasinianus.
I had removed it, because this picture was actually not of real added value for the article and the added caption was not neutral. Take into account that Wikipedial has to be neutral. Please do not add personal feelings. I would thus advise you to remove it from this article.

In the article Crocus you uploaded the same picture twice. I have removed the second upload and made the caption of the first upload neutral. As Rivertorch let you previously know, this picture is actually not of real added value for the article. I would thus advise you to remove it also from this article.

Best regards, --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 15:45, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your explanation. I will delete the photos. Sincerely,--Famberhorst (talk) 19:11, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cirsium vulgare

Cirsium vulgare is a species of thistle in the plant family Asteraceae. Native to Europe and Western Asia, it has become naturalised in North America, Africa and Australia, and is an invasive weed in some areas. It is a ruderal species, able to colonise bare ground, but also persists well on pasture as its thorny leaves and stems make it unpalatable to most grazing animals. The flowers are rich in nectar, attracting bees and butterflies, and the seeds are a favourite with goldfinches, linnets and greenfinches. The downy pappus, which assists in wind dispersal of the seeds, is used by birds as nest-lining material.

Helleborus orientalis

Helleborus orientalis, the Lenten rose, is a species of hellebore in the buttercup family, native to Greece and Turkey. German planters began breeding the species in the mid-19th century, but it fell out of favour as a garden plant in the 1920s. Interest was revived in the 1960s by Helen Ballard, who bred many new varieties. Cultivars have plain or spotted flowers, which can be white, green, pink, maroon or purple.
