[edit] Rename

I don't have the ability to do that. Request a name change at Wikipedia:Changing username. Neutralitytalk 17:06, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good pictures!

Hi, I'd just like to say that I like the devotion and the number of pictures you have uploaded to Wikipedia. Well done! There are concerns about the rationale for some of them, but please do not let that discourage you. Read and re-read the rules. Some of them may be ok, some of them may not be. Unless you follow the rules strictly and argue for the pictures, too many may be removed by zealous administrators. Mlewan (talk) 06:57, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] London buses logo

On what basis are you messing with this image, other than it is on the Tfl logos page? The roundel image you are supporting actually looks orange, which is not appropriate, and is far too big, but more importantly it is not used in any real life situation I know of, whereas the previous logo is actually what is used to identify the buses to passengers, and on publicity.

Actually, I stand corrected, it appears it is being used on some publicity, it still looks absolutey crap though, and should not be orange. MickMacNee (talk) 13:09, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Arsenal FC.svg

I have reverted your changes to use Image:Arsenal FC.svg instead of Image:Arsenal FC.png in the relevant pages, as I do not believe it to be a better-quality version of the image, as it stands. Most crucially, the colours in the image render incorrectly in my browsers (Firefox 2 & Internet Explorer in Windows XP, Firefox 2 on Linux, all in 32-bit colour), compared with the version of the crest on arsenal.com Specifically, the darker shade of red on the right-hand side of the shield is displayed incorrectly as #D40026, when it should be #DB0008. The blue trim on the shield is #091C5A when it should be a lighter colour of #013976 or thereabouts. The gold is also #9C814A when it should be #8D6E26.

If you can check the actual crest on the official Arsenal website and fix these colour issues accordingly, then this would be most welcome, thank you. As it stands, the image is not an accurate portrayal of the crest and this is particularly important given one of the articles it is displayed in is a featured article, so I hope you understand the reversion of your edits. Any corrected version would be more than welcome to see. Thank you for your time. Qwghlm (talk) 23:11, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Addendum: The brighter red on the shield is rendered as #FE000C instead of the correct #F00107 - this also needs correcting. Thanks once again. Qwghlm (talk) 23:17, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for your advice, I've corrected the colors. --<Flrntalk> 12:23, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:LOGO-RP.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:LOGO-RP.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 07:32, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
