[edit] Cities of New South Wales
Hi Aussiepounce99. I am about to revert your edits to Port Macquarie, New South Wales and Tweed Heads, New South Wales to reinstate their classifications as towns. I refer you to the following extract from the New South Wales cities template talk page:
-
-
- "Defining whether a place can be a city or not based on its Council area is flawed, take for instance Tamworth Regional or Bathurst Regional Councils, both are centred around the major centres of Tamworth & Bathurst that in their own right would qualify to be called a city. Isnt there an official definition (by the NSW Goverment) that determines what is classed as a city or not? --59.167.7.100 03:42, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
-
-
- The dictionary of the Local Government Act 1993 [1] defines a city as following:
- “city means an area constituted as a city under Division 1 of Part 1 of Chapter 9.”
-
- The Local Government Act 1993 No 30 Chapter 9 Part 1, Division 1, 204 Constitution of areas states that:
- "(1) The Governor may, by proclamation, constitute any part of New South Wales as an area."
-
- [And in 206 Constitution of cities]
- "The Governor may, by proclamation, constitute an area as a city."
-
- I believe that according to the Government of New South Wales unless a place has been proclaimed a city it is not a city, no matter how large its population is...

Also, the information you used for the article Cities of New South Wales needs clarification. Many of the places listed there are not cities at all. Some are towns, others are multiple cities grouped together. Please see the Cities of New South Wales talk page for my full criticism.
Please don't let this scare you off from editing Wikipedia. Just please make sure your information is correct and properly presented. Blarneytherinosaur 01:51, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Articles proposed for deletion
Hi there. I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Griffith City Plaza, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Griffith City Plaza. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
I have actually tagged the articles for all of the shopping centres in Griffith, as none of them seemed to indicate how they are any different to a shopping centre in any large country town/city. As these articles are all only linked from Griffith, New South Wales, you might like to merge or integrate the critical points from these articles, or expand them to show why each property is important or distinctive. If you expand them, please remove the box at the top. --Scott Davis Talk 07:31, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:MARYYYYYY!!!.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:MARYYYYYY!!!.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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. 09:05, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for experimenting with the page Illegal drug trade on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thank you for your understanding. -- Vary | Talk 15:21, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:MARYYYYYY!!!!.jpg
|
Thanks for uploading Image:MARYYYYYY!!!!.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. feydey 15:28, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
Feydey, I'm new to wikipedia and have no idea how to claim the image as mine. I took the picture personally and wish for it to remain on the site as it is a prime example of a convicted drug dealer (which is left out of the page). Sorry for any trouble.
