[edit] John Hood controvery

Thank you Jonathan. Interesting to note that the author of this article took my comments above completely out of context. My comment, "I hope that won't cause too much trouble" was made in reference to my own edits to my own entry on wikipedia, not the entry for John Hood. The time and date stamp of my comments makes it clear -- these comments were made by me weeks before I even became aware of the John Hood article. I regret that the author of the news article did not contact me through my talk page for comment and give me due opportunity to respond to the allegations prior to taking my remarks entirely out of context.

Many thanks, Professor. I appreciate the support. Regards, BFD1 14:19, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

That was good of them. Pity it's not on their website. Can you tell me whether they offered any editorial comment in return? Thanks very much. BFD1 15:26, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Battle of theTitans cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Battle of theTitans cover.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. 12:05, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A new Oxbridge user box

Jonathan A Jones...I am currently in the process of writing a user box for all of the colleges that are part of Oxbridge. This template is meant to replace your current college template. Please take a look at the work in progress and comment on it. My main concerns are college abbreviations and color choice. I am using scarf colors for the colleges. Thank you. - LA @ 17:58, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD Nomination of Oxbridge

Hi, I nominated Oxbridge for deletion since it reads entirely as WP:OR. You can find the discussion here. ColdmachineTalk 22:35, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tamsin Dunwoody

Hello Jonathan, you reciently reverted a modification I made to Tamsin Dunwoody's page, where I entered that she featured in the Burke's Landed Gentry. I am unsure why you did this, since, my modification clearly isn't vandalism. I understand the dangers of making a political statement (given the current byelection) - which I tied my best to avoid, however if you believe I should cleanup the post, then I am happy to take onboard any comments. Many thanks. Richard East —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.212.205.141 (talk) 18:35, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Libertarian Party

Thanks Jonathan for your comment. Both existing notability rules and my own suggestions have one thing in common - aiming to keep notable groups in, and non-notable groups out. I know a little about the LPUK from blogs and web-sites, but until they stand in more than one election, or contribute more to the political culutre in the UK, they are no more a part of the political scene than the "Beauties For Britain" party who stood in Crewe. I have every faith that the article will one day be re-written, but then again WP:Crystal advises against such long-term assumption, Thanks for your comments, though doktorb wordsdeeds 18:08, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
