[edit] Wikipedia version of Phaidon Design Classics book set?

There is a great 3 volume book set from Phaidon book publishers called Design Classics ISBN:0 7148 4399 7. The only problem is it costs a whopping $175/€150. Here's what I was thinking, as far as I know you can't copyright a list so if we could get a list of the contents of the books it would make a great starting point for a Design Classics page/portal/wikiproject (whatever it's called- I'm a bit of a Wikipedia novice). A sort of Wikipedia version of Phaidon's books. I know there are 999 objects listed in the books but over time it could be done. I am not sure where I would go to propose such a project in Wikipedias community pages so I have started here. Any takers?--Trounce 14:59, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. --Nigel (Talk) 11:22, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

That & other links have been removed before. Still don't see it as appropriate to the main article. I perssonally would not object to your experience & the link being placed in the talk page - tho others may not agree! Cheers --Nigel (Talk) 11:25, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
Works for me - cheers --Nigel (Talk) 12:23, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Luxo L1 2006-08-01.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Luxo L1 2006-08-01.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Image:1970Telstar 2006-08-11.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:1970Telstar 2006-08-11.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 20:46, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
