[edit] Thanks!

I was unable to see that in my studies, however, I will take a look. Also, if anyone was rude or angry it was the person who made that remark. There was no need for it. If you and rest disagreed you could have simply just fixed it and kindly mentioned reasons on my talk page.

No, I will not be editing that page because if there is one thing being a rational person has taught me. You can not rationalize with irrational people, so it is useless to argue and get into a big fight someone who makes such rude comments.

But, thank you again! RosePlantagenet 18:58, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:CharlesRobertSpencer.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:CharlesRobertSpencer.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. 13:05, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia Commons

Enlarge

I noticed you re-uploaded an image of George VI to Wikipedia from the Wikimedia Commons, but it is not necessary. In fact, that is the exact opposite of what you should be doing! :) The Wikimedia Commons is a repository for images that can be used on all Wikimedia projects, including the english Wikipedia. The file name of the image there can be used here and it will still work. For example, click the image of George VI to the right and you will see that it says that it is from the Commons.

So, for future reference, it is not necessary to re-upload Commons images. Also, please consider uploading all of your images to the Commons (as long as they are public domain or free to use) so they may be used in all languages, Wikinews, Wikiquote, and so on. Thanks. --tomf688 (talk - email) 03:42, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 6th earl?

I've removed the tag as the image has to be deleted from Commons, not here. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:25, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Catch-22

Thanks for your input into Catch-22 and character articles. Although you probably have, make sure you read through all the talk on Catch-22 about what we are trying to achieve with the Characters/Article.

I agree with the merging or Nately's Whore's kid sister into Nately's Whore - in fact it is likely that it will be merged into Nately anyway. If possible use the Character Template suggested by Wikiproject:Novels [1] - obviously a cut down version for minor characters (e.g. Major —— de Coverly) and major characters (e.g. Orr (Catch-22)).

Also I dont think the list should be merged. As explained in the talk, I believe the list in the main article is far too long and needs to be cut down to only the top 10/15 major characters - those who the main themes revolve around. The external list can then list all the characters for those that are interested. Given time I will do this myself, though it you wanted to help out that would be great.

P.S. The main reason that I have not merged relevant characters already is that I did not want to until I wrote a decent article for each first.
