[edit] Photo's I've Uploaded

There seems to be a fair number of posts on here about photo's I've uploaded that maybe I shouldn't have. I genuinely did think that putting screencaps and music album/single covers up was ok. Anyhow I am now only uploading photos I personally took so there should be no problems anymore. I will delete any posts made about photos from this page. This is NOT because I am annoyed or I think they shouldn't be taken down, it's because I realise I may have put them up in error and don't want to messages making my discussion section huge!

[edit] Cawston(Rugby)

Hi,

as you were editing this recently, thought I would ask you the question.

Do you think that this should be renamed to Cawston, Warwickshire as per other villages? As it stands it looks something like a rugby player.

Another alternative would by Cawston, Rugby.

Keith D 15:17, 4 January 2007 (UTC)


Thanks for reply. As there is only 1 link to change I will see if it moves OK.
Keith D 18:13, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
No problem. Though it turned out to be a little more than expected with a redirect at Cawston that I changed into a dab page and moving the links for that page. There is a funny there that I left - several football pages refer to a Cawston, Nottinghamshire but I cannot locate such a place so I did not put it on the dab page.
To rename a page you click on the Move tab. But it does not work if the destination page has already been used. Also you have to move the talk pages as well. (I have not tried one with talk pages as yet.)

[edit] Bridgestone

Nice work on this article, it's coming along well. When I first started on it some time ago it was very plain and not much info. Your newest entries have added a lot of good information. Well Done. Mobile 01 23:44, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Please see: User_talk:Shyam_Bihari#Hello can you remove that comment on the mediation page? From my perspective, there seems to be some confusion about your comment.

[edit] Elpis Israel

No probs. Figured a category would help - there are a few orphaned articles on Christadelphian related topic, so this should help to some degree. Woofboy 11:09, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Weston Under Wetherley infobox

HI! I just added the "places" infobox to the Weston Under Wetherley article. Since I am completely clueless about this location, many of the details may be wrong (I simply copied it from the nearest town and then adjusted the latitude and longitude and removed the postal code.) If you would, please refine the details. Thanks. -Arch dude 01:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your WIkipedia skin problem

Hi. If you want to change your Wikipedia skin back to monobook (which is the default) go to Special:Preferences, click "Skin," click "Monobook" and then click "Save." --Iamunknown 20:49, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the help but I have done that and it just doesn't work. I am getting desperate now. When I try to save it it doesn't work. I have even done the Control + F5 thing. Any more ideas? Cls14 20:53, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
You say that when you save it does not work. Try clicking the radio button next to "Monobook (default)". Then click "Save". When you refresh the page and go back to the "Skin" menu, that radio button should still be selected. Is it? --Iamunknown 20:57, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
No sadly it doesn't I've tried that and followed all the help page instructions. Might have to give up unless you have anymore ideas or know any moderator who can help me. Cls14 21:02, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Have you tried clicking on "reset"? Have you switched off your computer between changing it and now? If all else fails, you should ask at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical). --Mel Etitis (Talk) 21:10, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

I assume that you are in Internet Explorer since you are using Control + F5. Go to a page other than Wikipedia. Select the dropdown menu "Tools". Then under the section labeled "Browsing history", select "Delete". Then click "Delete all". Then, finally click "Yes". (This works if you are in IE7.) --Iamunknown 21:08, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

No problem. I'm glad to hear your skin works again. I know I can't live without the monobook skin! --Iamunknown 21:59, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Glad to hear it's OK, and that you didn't throw the computer out of the window. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 22:11, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Just got your message on my talk page, seems like you have the problem sorted out already. Feel free to drop a message any time you need assistance. There are always people here willing to help. Cheers. Mobile 01Talk 22:15, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your message

As my User page indicates, I've got quite a wide range of editing interests — but I've not had much time for anything substantial recently, because of admin stuff. I'm trying to cut down on that, but it's not easy. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 22:24, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Where are we?

A lot has transpired on this discussion so far and I am wondering if we are actually getting anywhere with the mediation. Could the mediator give a response of his opinions of just where we are at and what if any decisions/suggestions/agreements have been agreed so far. Thanks. Mobile 01Talk 22:26, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Ive been busy. I'm more interested in your view about where things are at. -Stevertigo 06:20, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

I believe we have decided that the Liberian article ramains seperate and that we do not merge Firestone with Bridgestone. I think we have also covered what is POV and NPOV. I have made some changes to the article last night and today, adding a few images and cleaning up some of the duplicated statements. Please everyone have a look at the current article and offer your opinions. If everyone is happy then we can close this out and let the mediator get on with other issues.

Mobile 01Talk 22:54, 22 March 2007 (UTC)


Thanks for the quick reply on the mediation page, I understand that you feel out of your depth but we are all the same really. You were basically brought in to the mediation because you had edited the Bridgestone article recently and as such we wanted your opinions. Right now though we just need to know if the current appearance and content of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company article meets with your approval or if you think it still needs editing. If everyone agrees then we can close the mediation.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thanks again. --Geniac 16:08, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Anglesey

Thanks for your message on my talk page. Yes, I have some Anglesey connections so I'm there fairly frequently. Some recent photos I took are stuck on a computer there, so there'll be a delay before I can add a couple of photos to articles about Anglesey. I'll have another look through your list in more detail later and see whether I can think of anything to add. Plas Newydd is rather poor at present, and I'd like to improve that. Any particular suggestions / requests? Bencherlite 18:45, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Nice. I've got the NT guidebook here, so will try to add more at some point - I'll also try to find a photograph of the house as seen from the Menai, as the current photograph doesn't do justice to the excellent location. Bencherlite 11:30, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
I spotted a book recently on Anglesey Railways, and might just treat myself to it now so that I can help with that topic! Bencherlite 11:46, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Wife's family are there. Bencherlite 11:51, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

(New point about Anglesey) I don't think that you should be adding Category:Anglesey to articles that are already in Category:Villages in Anglesey - that 'Villages' cat is a sub-cat of the Anglesey cat, so you fall foul of WP:CAT#Guidelines no.3 about over-categorization. Bencherlite 12:16, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

No problem - as you'd only done a few, I thought I'd let you know before you "ran wild" (and you'll have spotted that I undid the changes for you as well - all part of the service!) Bencherlite 18:17, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Me

Hi Cls, I'm from King's Heath in Birmingham, but I used to be from Horley in Surrey.

Yeah, I know them both, although now that Anita is at uni, we don't see that much of her!

And hi from me, too, Cls. Yep, I'm a Christadelphian; I'm from Shirley, in Birmingham. --Woofboy 21:53, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Joseph Chamberlain Memorial Clock Tower

Hi. I noticed that you originally added the weight of the main bell to the Joseph Chamberlain Memorial Clock Tower article. It was 6 tonnes when you added it, but it now says 6.5 tonnes, and 6.5 tons at University of Birmingham. Could you tell me what the original source says? Cordless Larry 18:15, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

It looks from the references that it might be from a book rather than online. Cordless Larry 22:04, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
This has it down as 13,619 lbs, which is 6,177 kg: http://www.gcna.org/data/GBGreatBells.html. And this appears to be the document you got the stats from, but it won't open at the moment: http://medweb5.bham.ac.uk/files/cawc/TourTrainingformedschooltour.doc. I can see 6.5 tonnes when I find it in Google though. Cordless Larry 22:12, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
OK, I've updated the page. It wasn't me who extended it, I just wanted to convert the measurements to metric and came across the weight mismatch. Cordless Larry 22:19, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gracie

Hi, regarding the message about Gracie (film), saying it is like Bend It Like Beckham without any citation is original research and thus not allowed. If you can provide a reliable source saying the same, you are most welcome to add it back. --soum (0_o) 15:36, 29 May 2007 (UTC)111


[edit] Re: Snobs

You could include some sources so we can verify its notability. Will (talk) 20:32, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Look at Zoo Bar (Halifax, West Yorkshire) - a notable nightclub in its own right. A few local or one national source may be enough, I think. Will (talk) 20:35, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Commons:Image:Bradmanstatue.jpg

Hi. The reason is, its generally preferable to have images at commons rather that on Wikipedia. That way, if one of the non-English Wikipedia's wish to use the image (for example fr:Donald Bradman), they can link to it the same way we do. The Wikimedia software is clever enough to look for the image file name in commons first, and then in the local Wikipedia. The only proviso is that Commons will only accept images with free licenses, such as public domain. —Moondyne 03:36, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean when you say I took the image "off his page". It still appears on Donald Bradman that I can see. —Moondyne 05:45, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Me To You Bears

Hey, not a problem. Searching for news items where they are mentioned would be a good start. Also I see you have a list of articles you've created/added to - if you want to link the pics in, but don't want them to appear inline, you can do that by prepending a colon. So, for example [[:Image:NewCubbington.jpg]] shows as Image:NewCubbington.jpg — Timotab Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!) 01:08, 29 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:SoupBeautifulSouth.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:SoupBeautifulSouth.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 05:31, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Right Now (John Cena song)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Right Now (John Cena song), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Right Now (John Cena song). contribsSTYROFOAM☭1994TALK 15:16, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ian Lawson (footballer born 1939)

Hi. Just noticed your article Ian Lawson (footballer born 1939) on the newpages log and have added a small introduction to prevent it from being deleted. I wasn't sure whether you knew this, but if you want to start an article, then add text later, you can place the {{underconstruction}} template at the top of the page. This will tell other editors that you intend to do some more work on it. Cheers and happy editing. Paul20070 (talk) 16:45, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Guilsborough School

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Guilsborough School, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
