(Since it's been re-added by @Deryni probably worth leaving a note here.) The infobox image of Betzig is quite likely a copyright violation, it was uploaded by serial offender Jacklamf1d14 and has no evidence it was released under the reported licence. I've tagged it as such on commons but until that's resolved I don't think it should be used in this article — it caught my eye because I searched quite extensively for a compatibly-licensed image but without success, if anyone knows of a suitable image or has evidence that the current image is CC-BY 3.0 please leave a note or edit it in as appropriate. Many thanks, benmoore 19:22, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

OK, sorry about the reintroduction. Deryni (talk) 16:29, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. The image has now been deleted from commons. Thanks, benmoore 10:34, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am currently following the Nobel dinner on Swedish national television. In an interview right now, Mr. Betzig said that before going to the ceremony, he looked up Prince Carl Philip and Princess Madeleine on the Wikipedia to get some info about them. w.carter-Talk 21:20, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
