[edit] Image copyright

Thanks for uploading the image Image:171_7107.JPG. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? Untagged images may be deleted, since we have no way of knowing whether it's legal to them. (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you want to reply, please use my talk page. Thanks, Oliver Lineham 00:12, 2004 Dec 20 (UTC)

Hi, you asked what is the best way to donate to Wikipedia a photo you have taken yourself and uploaded. Yes, tagging it with {{GFDL}}. Although you probably agreed to the GFDL when you uploaded it, tagging images makes this explicit, and ensures your contribution will be included when Wikipedia is distributed.

[edit] HKWNB and HKCOTW

Hi. I noticed you have edited some Hong Kong-related articles. You might be interested to take a look at HK wikipedians' notice board and HK Collaboration of the Week. Happy editing! — Instantnood 10:27, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Largest Bus Company

Regarding Laidlaw with approximately 5,000 non-school buses, the company has many contract operations. The 2 Greyhounds (US and Canada) account for about 3,000. Those are my very rounded estimates. Laidlaw has been actively trying to sell-off the Greyhound units, and should that happen to anyone who doesn't already have a very large number of buses, KMB could then be clearly larger. Greyhound has added a number of Gray Line sightseeing operations in the U.S. in the past several years, but continued route cutbacks seem inevitable. BTW, The KMB article needs a lot more substance before it could make FA. Can you get more history, desciption of services, innovations? More text (vs lists) would be helpful in that regard. I am a Greyhound and Laidlaw watcher and I will try to keep you advised of developments. Let me know if you would like some links to good websites. Mark in Richmond, Virginia, USA.

[edit] Re: Category:Transport in Hong Kong

Hello Dennis. I guess to a certain extent British spellings are still prevalent in Hong Kong. If you take a quick glance at category:Transportation by country you can tell most countries using Commonwealth English have their categories titled "Transport in" rather than "Transportation in". The manual of style and manual of style (spelling) do not govern which spelling should be preferred, but they do according to where the content is about.

The reason why most countries are titled "Transportation in" was because nearly all of these categories were created by a bot. The article "Transport in Hong Kong" is already titled in that way, and I guess the same should be done to its corresponding category. — Instantnood 07:54, Mar 21, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] First Bus and Citybus

They have now put the words "周大福企業及新創建集團成員" beneath their logos on the body of the vehicles. Are the words part of the logos? — Instantnood 18:05, Mar 21, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] wikEd

The wikEdlogo

Hi, I have seen that you are using the Cacycle editor extension. This program is no longer actively maintained in favor of its much more powerful successor wikEd.

wikEd has all the functionality of the old editor plus: • syntax highlighting • nifty image buttons • more fixing buttons • paste formatted text from Word or web pages • convert the formatted text into wikicode • adjust the font size • and much, much more.

Switching to wikEd is easy, check the detailed installation description on its project homepage. Often it is as simple as changing every occurrence of editor.js into wikEd.js on your User:YourUsername/monobook.js page.
