[edit] Pillbox picture

Having just added the article British anti-invasion preparations of World War II (it is still a work in progress), I am looking for pictures of pillboxes etc. Do you have any more like that? Gaius Cornelius 23:09, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your offer of pictures. I have quite a few pictures of my own to put in, but I particularly like your one of the Norton pillbox that clearly shows it to be circular (pillboxes/21.jpg). Could I trouble you to upload it Wikipedia. My reason for asking you to do this is that Wikipedia is very strict about the status of images and I don't want there to be any doubt about attribution, copyright status etc. Thanks again.

Thanks for that - its in the article... Gaius Cornelius 17:17, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ruck Machine Gun Post

Palmiped: I have left a reply for you on my user page and expanded further on Talk:British anti-invasion preparations of World War II. Gaius Cornelius 01:12, 9 June 2006 (UTC).

Palmiped: Thanks for your continued interest. With regard to the book: Stanton at War 1939-45, I suppose you know where I might be able to find a copy? Gaius Cornelius 18:00, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SS Canberra

Thanks for the tip about the article in Ships Monthly, I shall be sure to look out for it. Unfortunately it take a few weeks for it to appear in the newsagents here in Australia- I just bought May's yesterday. Did the article shed any light on the RMS debate? --Dashers 23:46, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ja???? and zh????

Sorry thought it was untidy as it shows ???? in In other languages box, why does it not say Chinese or Japanese? Palmiped 12:49, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

It displays correctly to me. Maybe you do not have japanese and chinese fonts installed. This is the way how all japanese and chinese interwiki links are done. At least all I saw. It says "Chinese" in Chinese charecters (I recognize these two). See for instance interwiki links on Earth. Chinese is penultimate one. Actually I think it is done automaticaly by wiki software. --Jan.Smolik 13:00, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POPPYS IN THE FIELD, WEYBOURNE

Hello Palmiped, The picture you have uploaded to the Weybourne "wiki" is not coming in to view. you may need to re-upload it Stavros1 13:15, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

I must have some gremlins in my computer as I still cannot see the Image although I can see every other image on that page. All I see is a long Narrow Box with the title in it. Very Strange!!!Stavros1 15:46, 22 November 2006 (UTC) The picture won't come up on the Kelling page either, all I have is a box with the title above the box with the map. Its very strange that it only seems to be that picture that my computer does not want to show me. The link to your upload page that I followed is Blank also.Stavros1 17:27, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Poppy Picture

I have removed the picture that has not loaded properly, pressing control F5 has no effect. Please reload it to see if that will do the trickStavros1 11:02, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for re-loading the poppy picture, my computer still will not let me see it. Dont no why but I'm sure other people will enjoy the photograph. Regards Stavros1 17:34, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

That's Great I can see the Poppy pictures now. The page (Weybourne) if I say so myself is looking good now.Stavros1 23:22, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
