[edit] Re: The Wrekin
Hi there,
Use the GFDL license for any of your own photos that you would like Wikipedia to use. However, if it's not your own photo, but a photo taken from elsewhere on the internet, it cannot be uploaded to Wikipedia. The next best thing would be to link to it from the article.
And welcome! If you want, you can add [[Category:Wikipedians in Shropshire]] to your userpage and you will then be added to the list of Salopian wikipedians! :)
David.

- Your image is superb and should stand alone on the article - play around using the "Show preview" button until you get the best effect! David 20:11, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
- Yup the Wrekin page is looking pretty good now. If you have any more good images to put on Wikipedia articles (especially Shropshire ones) please do add them! :)
[edit] Re: Severn photo
I'm not even sure where that photo is from (!!) - I don't mind where it's used, though I think articles like The Quarry should have it. In fact the Quarry's article needs more photos! David 17:23, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

- Silly me, I was looking at a different photo! When I said "I'm not even sure where that photo is from" I meant its origin. The one you've taken is good and should be put on to English Bridge, maybe, as an example of the view from that bridge. Though if you have a photo of the bridge itself, that would be better still.

[edit] License tagging for Image:Porthill BridgeCB.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Porthill BridgeCB.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 17:06, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Shrewsbury photos
Thanks for the photos - the Dingle one, for example, is superb.
Have you got one of Pride Hill? The Bear Steps? Any of the churches in the town centre?
I have a couple of photos hanging about on my computer too, so I may be able to add a few in the future. David 18:40, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

- Bear Steps "rather undesirable to walk through"??! Aren't you getting mixed up with Seventy Steps?! David 18:54, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] ShropshireWiki
Hi Chris. I've started a wiki dedicated to Shropshire and would be very pleased to have you add some content to it. [1]
