[edit] License tagging for Image:Struble, John T.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Struble, John T.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. 05:10, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:Michael at grave1.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Michael at grave2007.jpg. The copy called Image:Michael at grave2007.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 00:45, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cities in Iowa

All municipalities in Iowa are cities. There is no legal category of "town" in Iowa, to my knowledge, but it is a city: see this US Census data for proof. Please understand that Wikipedia is not a place to post your opinions: it reflects what is published by reliable sources, such as the United States Census Bureau.

To get your reference to display, place a header named "References" and type {{reflist}}. This will cause the references to display there. As far as the reference you added: I reverted it, not because it was incorrect, but because Wikipedia prohibits original research. Unless you find it in a reliable source, please don't post anything. There's one exception: if you can provide a picture of what you're wanting to write about, you can, because the picture proves the truth of your words. Nyttend 02:06, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
