[edit] Photo Licensing
Of the Creative Commons licences, we can only accept those that allow both derivative and commercial reuse (since our licence, the GFDL allows both). Attribution and Sharalike licenses are acceptable. There are other licenses that are alright too, the GFDL and the Free Art Licence, for instance. You might try creating a flickr account and contacting the owners of those pictures, they might be talked into relicensing the photos. WilyD 12:44, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- A few users have managed to get flickr users to relicense stuff for Wikipedia, e.g., User:Videmus Omnia/Requesting free content. WilyD 16:00, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Another request from a techno-fool
Sorry to assail you with another renaming request, Brookie, but I have "renaming" confused with "moving". I have looked at instructions in Wikipedia How to edit etc and other places that I discover but the actual RENAMING process is not clear to me. In any event, I'm wondering if RENAMING is something only Admins can do.
- I think anyone can do it - do have a "Move" tab at the top of your page - if you do - then you can do it.
Now to the problem: I have successfully set up my first Archive <Hooray!> I neglected to put start and finish dates on it <Boo!>
Could you therefore kindly
- Go to my Archive page from my Talk page and rename it
/Archive 1 (14 June 2006 - 31 August 2007)
- Done
(Incidentally, must it have the slashmark? I have seen Archive pages that don't have this, but in the instructions it tells you to make a slash in order to create the link. Can we get rid of it?
- You need the / to make the link but then show it without it in the description - see what i've done and copy that.
- Then could you please fix the link at my Talk page to reflect the renaming, unless that updates automatically.
- Done
Further question:
- The Contents Box has disappeared from my Talk page. However, on better advice, I see that articles must have 3 headings and a Contents Box will automatically be generated by the page. I will wait for that to happen, ince I am now down on my Talk page to ONE paltry item.
- It is automatic as you say
Lastly:
- I hope you like the Roumieu article I've started. It still needs work but is it the right time now to get rid of the "under construction" box?
- Looks good - you should remove the under construction box asap - this is ususally best used to stop intruders while you're actually working on it that day and don't want fidllers while you go and have a pee!
Even more lastly:
- How do you get your Talk Page Editing Box to display a subject line? Can I have one, please? Or is this something I can do myself without wrecking the entire system? (don't take my tech skills for granted; they are primordial.)
- There is one if you use the bar thing that you have there, but it won't appear if you ignore that and just use the edit tab!
Thanks for all the help you continue to give. Much appreciated. Take a look at your Barnstars page.... ;-) --FClef (talk) 12:22, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- No prob's!and thanks for the cat - I have one that looks just like that! Brookie :) - he's in the building somewhere! (Whisper...) 15:57, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re: thanks
You're very welcome! I'm glad I could help. Anything for an adorable feline on my talk page :) To answer your question: nope, I'm not an admin. GracenotesT § 04:28, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Eastcheap
Hi Fclef. Apologies for not getting back to you regarding your earlier message. I can't offer much of an excuse except that I was busy at the time and simply lost it further up my talk page!
I don't have a business phone number per-se, but if you'd like, send me an email (under toolbox on the left side when you're at my talk page), and I'll give you my mobile number. When the weather is nice - possibly later this week according to the forecast - I will do my best to take the photo you requested! I actually work on Fenchurch Street almost parallel to the location of the Eastcheap photo, so it shouldn't be too difficult. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 21:54, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Con te partirò
Hi Brookie - please take a look at my recent edit of this article. I wonder whether then cleanup sign on it can now be removed? --FClef (talk) 08:43, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- I think so and have removed it! Brookie :) - he's in the building somewhere! (Whisper...) 09:56, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Brookie greeting
A while since we spoke - how's things? How is your London guiding going? Brookie :) - he's in the building somewhere! (Whisper...) 11:43, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
