I am extremely happy to have my picture on Mossbrae Falls displayed as selected picture on California Portal. I guess, this picture is selected, not for its technical merit - but for the unique natural wounder of this waterfall. This reassures me that we live in a wounder full place (called earth) - just waiting to dance for us - just we need to be prepared to get to it's theater with wide open mind and heart. Thank you again.

My Wiki Talk(s)/Thoughts(?):

• Wiki Wikipedia:Template. My intentions of creating wiki templates are
  • Wiki editors can share ideas from other similar articles that fall in the common interest
  • Increase the possibility of getting more relevant topics added
  • We can avoid "see also" sections
• image upload - copyright
  • I have uploaded a bunch of waterfall pictures I have taken on my camera. While uploading, I have tried to give as liberal a copyright notice as possible... I don't care who/how the picrutes are used (I don't own and don't want to own any of the waterfalls :-) ). Still folks keep bouncing my pictures - don't know how to move on.
  • I want these pictures be restored or I can load them again - but, can some one point me to an easy page that suggests best possible selections to make in image upload page - so that no one will ever delete it for copyright/ownership reasons. I don't even need credit for the pictures I have taken (I am not a professional photographer - let these pictures be in place until some professional puts up a better picture there).
• On vandalism: Delete: Well, it looks like Medha Hari has manged to get one of the marketing managers - using WikiPedia, Hindu and many other opportunities to promote. I suspect, it is the marketing manager $$gaining$$ through the efforts of popularizing her. If the WikiPedia author(s) is really serious with out any bias to write about Bharatanatyam and Tamil culture, s/he can get older pictures of Bharatanatyam placed widely on wiki - instead of Medha Hari's all over. This is THE most controversial wikipedia entry I have come across so far. --Pinecar 01:49, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
