[edit] Faustyna Kowalska
I have changed your article --Sister Faustina-- to a redirect to the article that already exists Faustyna Kowalska. Please feel free to edit the already existing article if you believe that there is anything missing from there. In the future you might want to do a "Google" search to check & see if there are already existing articles. SkierRMH 10:23, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Menlo
Please try to read articles fully before editing. (a) Menlo, Galway was already in the article. (b) Castlegar is not in the US of A. I've reverted your edit, but I've added "parish of Castlegar" to the Galway Menlo. --Red King 23:18, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Foster & Allen 2007.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Foster & Allen 2007.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.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. (ESkog)(Talk) 16:15, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Infrastructure comparisson.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Infrastructure comparisson.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 05:22, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Neutrality of Athlone article
Could you please leave reasons when attaching such tags to articles, so that the people editing it can make the changes necessary to get it back in line? Otherwise nothing will ever be done about it. Cheers Fossiliferous 16:49, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Glenveagh
Hi Jeanne d'Arc; you are a very efficient coordinator I see! We seem to be following one another around - so it was with Glenveagh. You put the lake plus photo into a lake infobox; but the article is about a park not the lake and the lake is called Lough Veagh not Lough Glenveagh. To have a infobox for the lake would suggest a separate article? We need to either remove the box and substitute with a "parkbox" (if such exists) or else leave the photo as a stand-alone without a box or move the box+photo to a new article Lough Veagh. Sorry for sounding picky, but like yourself I am a Virgo and a perfectionist!! (Sarah777 20:12, 6 October 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Inisheer and lighthouse/mountain template
Hi Jeanne. I reverted the change you made earlier to Inisheer, and would like to confirm with you the rationale for adding a lighthouse template, that is not related to the high level topic.
Firstly, "Kilronan Lighthouse" (the label that was on the template) isn't on Inisheer. And while "Inisheer Lighthouse" is, it's not the subject of the article.
Secondly, I'm personally unsure about the notion of adding a template which deals with a subject that is not the article's key topic. (The Inisheer article doesn't even mention the lighthouse). While I can certainly understand adding a Lighthouse Template to an article ABOUT a lighthouse (like Dohaghadee Lighthouse), I'm not sure about adding a top level template (which deals with a lighthouse) to an article which doesn't discuss that lighthouse.
And finally, the template you are adding to these pages is for Mountains. And so it has details on "elevation" and "prominence". These are unsuitable when the subject is a lighthouse. You do know that there already is a lighthouse template right? At Template:Infobox_Lighthouse?
I'd strongly recommend changing all your recent additions to use this infobox instead... (As noted, the one you are using is not entirely appropriate)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Infrastructure comparisson.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Infrastructure comparisson.JPG. 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. BetacommandBot 23:30, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
