[edit] Albert Einstein

Your recent contribution(s) to to the Wikipedia article Albert Einstein are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! --KeithB 17:12, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

I mistook your edits for vandalism. I obviously jumped the gun. My sincere apologies. --KeithB 18:10, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi Peter. I live in Ohio in the U.S., in the Cleveland area. I am employed as an engineer.
I have been active as an editor on Wikipedia for a short while, mainly fighting vandalism of late. It is pretty much continuous, from what I can tell, ranging anywhere from innocent experimentation, to more devious inserting of misinformation. The latter gives me concern for the long term viability of the Wikipedia project. I seems that ultimately they will have to require registration for editing. I would think this would help. --KeithB 18:50, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:NormanCloseUp150.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NormanCloseUp150.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. 19:11, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Civility please.

Your recent edit summaries have been most uncivil. The other editors disputing your addition are not vandalizing - nor are they amateurs or senile. Such comments in edit summaries or talk pages are in violation of WP:CIVIL. Please read that policy page and discuss your concerns on the talk page - also be aware of WP:3RR.
