[edit] Persondata

I've reverted your change to Loui Batley. You pointed me to Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography#Structure, but there's no guidance there as to where {{persondata}} should be positioned. However, Wikipedia:Persondata#Using the template itself indicates that {{persondata}} should be placed before the categories, which is where I placed it originally. robwingfield «TC» 01:24, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

oops, did not see that you moved it to the bottom. -- Zarief 08:27, 5 February 2007 (UTC)


[edit] HelpMe Requests

{{helpme}} Please could someone give me some advice on the Sally Bretton article? Someone has revised it, but as some things look right (such as Biography looks better combined) – the selected credits look to have a number of errors where titles do not match up with the contents. How should I change it to keep with the Wiki Biography policy? When do we use "selected credits" over full credits?

The policy Wikipedia:Biographies of living people and guideline Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies) give background information; if there are errors, feel free to correct them, and give a source for any negative or controversial information (and remove it if it can't be sourced). I'm not sure about the credits; you could try asking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Biography to get input from people who edit biographies. --ais523 13:34, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:EmmaRigbyHollyoaks.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:EmmaRigbyHollyoaks.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 fair use images lacking such an explanation 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. Agathoclea 14:37, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
