[edit] Redirects and cut/paste

Hi! It looks like you're trying to move one or more pages. However, please stop doing that this way - the new name of the page might be good, but Wikipedia has another procedure for moving pages. Look at Help:Renaming (moving) a page: you need to use the move tab, and not cut and paste. Cut and paste moves don't take the edit history with them and thus violate the GFDL copyright terms. Also, in some cases, when the move might be controversial, you might first want to discuss the move on the article's talk page. If a move is not possible because a page with the new name already exists, go to Wikipedia:Requested moves. Thanks!

Also, it would be incorrect to move some of the pages you have for reasons of convention. For example, the article named "Leaving Here" is already a song, which would make "Leaving Here (song)" a bit of a redundant disambiguation. This is why it was at "Leaving Here (Motörhead song)" (the fact that it should really be under "Leaving Here (Motörhead single)" is currently under debate! The same goes for "Louie Louie" as well. "Motorhead (song)" and its live counterpart were thus placed for logical reasons explained on its history log by Kingboyk. Hope this clears things up for you, and keep up the good work in the field of music. Rock on! Bubba hotep 09:39, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Cruzados-album.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Cruzados-album.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands 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. 22:07, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

That's some seriously painstaking work you've been doing recently, doing those sorts of expansions usually make my eyes glaze over after a bit, it's laborious stuff and it's appreciated. Thanks.--Alf melmac 23:54, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
