[edit] linking individual years

Please don't wiki-link individual years in articles - e.g., don't turn 1967 into 1967, or 1930s into 1930s . Those links don't add any information, and just create more blue words to distract readers. - DavidWBrooks 11:23, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

Hello there. Just thought I would touch base with you. Please leave me a note on my talk page. Qutezuce 21:05, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate links

Hi,

I reverted your addition of links to Cereal Partners Worldwide; we normally only link the first occurrence of a word.

There may be exceptions to this; personally, I feel that in a long article where someone shouldn't have been assumed to have read every preceding section, it's quite reasonable to re-link the first occurrence in a distinct section.

However, in short articles, or within sections (as in this case), we only need one link. Thanks!

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Tomcarvel.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Tomcarvel.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Tomcarvel.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Tomcarvel.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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 non-free media 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. Rettetast 19:18, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Marysee.gif

I have tagged Image:Marysee.gif as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. Rettetast 19:18, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
