[edit] Iron Ring Clock

I have deleted Image:Iron ring clock small2.jpg and adjusted the article to match. I have reverted Image:Iron ring clock small.jpg to the larger version - Wiki is very clever at automatically scaling images. Did you have the same trouble as I had with the images not seeming to update? The trick I used was: view the image by itself then click refresh. The image is called "... small" - would you be willing to let us have the "... large" version? -- RHaworth 00:54, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the image tips, this is my first editing attempt. I uploaded image:Iron_Ring_Clock.jpg, which is the full sized version of Iron ring clock small.jpg, as requsted. Burtonpe 01:40, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Well done. Now please tell us what a Geneva Wheel is. It is nice to find people who take to Wiki naturally and do things like putting copyright tags on images right from the start. Though you could be uploading them to "the Commons" - won't you have to repeat this article in the French Wikipedia? -- RHaworth 04:16, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Changed the wording, Wikipedia calls it a Geneva Drive instead of a Geneva Wheel. Not sure if my french is up to par for rewriting all this stuff! Been a while since I took any french. Burtonpe 13:31, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia Canada

Hi there! I'd like to invite you to explore Wikimedia Canada, and create a list of people interested in forming a local chapter for our nation. A local chapter will help promote and improve the organization, within our great nation. We'd also like to encourage everyone to suggest projects for our national chapter to participate in. Hope to see you there!--DarkEvil 15:21, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Clock Team03.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Clock Team03.JPG. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Image legality questions page. Thank you. Shyam (T/C) 17:27, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Iron Ring Clock

Your help is needed to find a citation for The clock contains what is believed to be the largest iron ring in the world as in integral part of the mechanism. in the McMaster University article. This is one of the things need to be addressed before the article can be renominated as a good article. Thanks 219.79.199.246 12:04, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LOOK!

Your article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Ring_Clock is proposed for deletion. SAVE IT!

[edit] re: iron ring clock

It should be gone, right? I removed it when I closed the AfD. Make sure you're looking at the most current version of the page: [1] --W.marsh 21:54, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
