Using one of your images
Hello. Just wanted to thank you for the image of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Black_soldier_flies_mating.jpg| black soldier flies mating], which I am using as a banner image on one of my podcast episode pages.
I would have linked to your own site, but it appears to be HTTP:// only and will not load. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JeremyCherfas (talk • contribs) 13:46, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
Request for input and keep up the great work!
Hi Muhammad! First off, great job on the work you are doing! You have an incredible eye for detail.
Also, I wanted to ask you if youre not too busy, if you could take a quick look at the Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Monroe Street Bridge Featured pic candidate and give your two cents. It got 4 supports and 1 oppose on the first day as a FPC, but hasnt gotten input since. I think it has been buried by the flurry of other FPCs coming in lol. I think this picture has high EV and I have found no comparable bridge pictures of any quality on this site that depict what is in this photograph, so I think it is important to the project and will be worth your time.
Anyway, thank you for all you do!G755648 (talk) 02:09, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

Hey, Muhammad. I hate to be a pain about this, but I was trying to get a good writeup for your excellent photo, went to Fatima Masumeh Shrine, read the opening, and...
I just don't know enough about Islam. I mean, I can mostly understand the opening paragraph, but I don't know, for example, who the Twelver are, or other key information for interpreting it. Would you be willing to give me two to four sentences on the shrine that I can use in the Signpost article? Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:23, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
:Hey, I have taken the introduction from the article and removed some of the filler and added a little to it. --Muhammad(talk) 19:33, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
:The shrine of Fatima Masuma is located in Qom which is considered by Shia Muslims to be the second most sacred city in Iran after Mashhad. Fatima Masuma was the sister of the eighth Imam 'Ali al-Rida and the daughter of the seventh Imam Musa al-Kadhim. Among the shias, she is honored as a saint, and her shrine in Qom is considered one of the most significant shrines in Iran. The dome shown in the picture lies immediately above her burial chamber which also includes her 3 nieces

Spiders
Since you seem to have no problems identifying spiders, I was wondering if you could help me out with these two. Both were taken at the Sambisari Temple Complex, Indonesia: A jumping spider, and a white-haired spider. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:41, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

:::Oh, okay, I'm exaggerating with the second one. But the first one makes me shudder. SPIDERS SHOULDN'T BE SPIKY! Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:16, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

It's not me identifying them, I usually put them up on forums where there are experts to help out. The first one is A lynx spider - Oxyopidae, probably Oxyopes --Muhammad(talk) 12:30, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
- Ah, so like I've done in the past. A Facebook forum, or...? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:47, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

I'm tempted to say Oxyopes quadrifasciatus, but I'm not sure if there's anything similar-looking to that that might get confused for it. Adam Cuerden (talk) 13:24, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
