[edit] Lighthouses

Thank you for all your wonderful articles and photographs of lighthouses. If you need any help as you develop as a Wikipedian, let me know. I love the sea.--File Éireann 17:57, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Pendeen lighthouse.jpg has been listed as a possible copyright violation

An image that you uploaded, Image:Pendeen lighthouse.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Polzeath.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Polzeath.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairusein|article name}} or {{fairuse}}. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much.feydey 18:31, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Dan_Rogerson.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dan_Rogerson.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. --OrphanBot 05:09, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wolf Rock

I've added a note to the talk page for Wolf Rock, Cornwall querying whether this text is a copyright violation or not, as it appears to be a copy of the text at Cornwall Calling. If this has been used by permission, you probably should note this on the its talk page, otherwise this text may be replaced. I also note the discrepancies between the facts in this article and the facts stated by Trinity House - maybe you'd like to review these? - MightyWarrior 20:27, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Goldsworthy Gurney

I'm concerned that the text of Goldsworthy Gurney is a cut & paste from http://www.hevac-heritage.org/victorian_engineers/sir_goldsworthy_gurney/sir_goldsworthy_gurney.htm

If you are not the owner of the copyright of that page, then you must understand that it is not acceptable to put other people's copyright work on Wikipedia without their permission. I'd be grateful if you'd let me know whether such permission was sought or granted. --Tagishsimon (talk)

Thanks. I do think that there's too much of the original left in the page; but equally I've dropped a mail to the owner of the source site asking if she/he minds - I suspect they'll be cool with it, since they borrowed from a number of sources to get their info. And who knows; we might be able to snag some of their images. However we should continue to make it diverge if we can. Oddly, I came across Gurney last night & couldn't find anything on him in wikiepedia, via google; that only 16 hours after you'd started your article. Nice coincidence. (Oh. And there seems to be discrepency between the first two biogs listed in External Link, one of which gives him credit for limelight, the other of which says that he improved/replaced limelight with the bude light. Some more work needed there to clarify. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

Yup, it's a creditable enough article, though I would like to tie down the limelight business & see some more fact checking done. Oddly, I'll be staying near Launceston over the coming weekend; I'm tempted to see if I can find his grave. But I'll probably think better of it once I get there. Did you see Bude Museum's Project Limelight, linked from themagicofcornwall's site? Perhaps they'll get funding for it; certainly they confirm that he invented limelight, and presumably went on to develop the Bude Light. --Tagishsimon (talk)

That'll do! --Tagishsimon (talk) 23:21, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sections from March

Hi, I was a bit surprised to see those section headings. They might be a good idea; those lists are getting cluttered. My concern, though, is that there are 366 date pages...and the formatting needs to stay consistent across all of them. There's probably a discussion area somewhere for talking about the overall format and contents of those pages. That would be the place to talk about making structural changes like inserting section headings. (I have my own concerns about those pages, like the flood of stupid non-days added to the holiday sections...it would be nice if we could trim those down a bit.) -- Jim Douglas 18:16, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Do you have a wikilink for WikiProject Days of the year? That particular reference is a red-link, and I can't find it by trying different variations on it. -- Jim Douglas 20:36, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Pefect, thanks! I definitely want to be there (Wikipedia:WikiProject Days of the year). -- Jim Douglas 20:39, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bemister

Dear Ben: I noticed you have tagged entry Bemister for wikifying. The piece was originaly edited by your colleague joel rothman, whom I presume stylised it according to the rules. As you have kindly pointed out that this was not the case, may I suggest that you wikify it? I am in Hollywood at the moment. If you need to discuss post your reply here or call me on , BUT please delete this number after reading this message.--Bemister 21:16, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Dear Ben: Thanks for your response and many thanks for deleting the number. I read the following on the history of the page: 11:07, 5 September 2006 Benjaminevans82 (Talk | contribs) (Wikify) Also I deleted the link to University of Exeter alumni because I am an undergraduate alumni of Oxford, and only later a member of the Exon Graduate School -- Bemister 23:28, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RAF Davidstow Moor

I wish I could provide you with information, however the World War II airfields in the UK which I have information and / or photos tend to be those used by the USAAF 8th and 9th Air Forces...

I reccomend... especially since you are in the UK. that you contact the MOD, as I am reasonably certain that the Air Ministry would have infomation which would be useful.

Warmest Regards and Best Wishes..

[edit] Redirects

If there are two articles covering the same topic, you can always just redirect one to the other. If there's content exclusively at one article, a merge might also be appropriate. Just so you know for next time.--Kchase T 20:23, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
