[edit] Little London

I wish I could tell you where the information on Little London came from but unfortunately I can't. What I can tell you is that the source stated the facts as laid out in that article. If they're wrong then change them: that's what this encyclopedia is about, though if someone else comes along afterward and points to the original source I used (wherever it is) and says what you've written is wrong, you need to be able to defend your version of history. -- Francs2000 23:59, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lace school

Hi, could you list your reference(s) for the article Lace school? Thanks, Melchoir 23:24, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

That was quick! Sorry still a greenhorn in Wikipedia land - is that OK? Moleskin 23:34, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Of course! I didn't mean to discourage you at all; an increasingly visible community like Wikipedia needs all the new help it can get. I just wanted to drop you a note while your source was fresh in your mind. Sometimes an article doesn't list its source, and its author goes missing, so no one is left to verify the material. Anyway, keep up the good work! Melchoir 23:44, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

I feel happy to see you and talking to you. There was no problem with the word as such - normally the word/s relating to the page name is made bold in the first sentence. In any case, you may have done this yourself - I just saw, and mad ethat bold. Cheers! We shall do several thing together. --Bhadani 14:31, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Maps with dots on

I have absolutely no idea, but I would look to the people who have been uploading the maps and ask one of them. Each image has its own page showing the full history of the image, for example this one for Aylesbury. There is also a category called GBdot showing all of the ones that have been uploaded to date. -- Francs2000 11:58, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mr Ruffin

Brookie here - I actually enjoy Reggae a lot - so you're wrong on that one! The article deleted was simply not notable as you had left it. If you are working on something and don't want it jumped on post {{inuse}} on the page whilst you are beavering away! Good luck Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! (Whisper...) 07:35, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I have re-created it for you as requested and tagged it as inuse - so get working on it before someone else has a go at it! Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! (Whisper...) 13:31, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Oakley Chandos Arms.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Oakley Chandos Arms.png. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Image legality questions page. Thank you. Stan 13:40, 4 April 2006 (UTC) Done - OK? Moleskin 08:20, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Oakley church.png

Thanks for clarifying that you did create Image:Oakley church.png. There's just one more question: What license will you use to release it? Generally, as a contributor to Wikipedia your contributions are licensed under the WP:GFDL, but you may also choose to release the photograph into the public domain or use a Creative Commons license. Please visit WP:ICT, pick a license tag, and edit the image page accordingly. If you need help with this, please contact me on my talk page. the iBook of the Revolution 18:22, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brill and Waterperry

It's fairly standard stuff. I have left a message for them. -- Francs2000 22:37, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Space_Patrol.jpg

If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

[edit] RE:Oxford Senior League Division 1

Hello! I hope you are feeling great! With regards to your question, the answer is a resounding YES. In fact, I am planning to create articles for ALL the divisions within the English football league system and eventually for the whole of the football world as well. However, a considerable amount of research is needed for this massive task and I am approaching this with a slow and steady attitude. In the meantime, you can also help out with this as well. Moreover, I am also planning to create articles for ALL the soccer clubs within the English system as well. --Siva1979Talk to me 13:51, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

However, sometimes I feel that I am the only user in Wikipedia who has the passion for doing this. Most of the other users would object of this because of notability issues. I mean, which football fan would be interested in reading about lower league clubs or divisions in England as well as in the other countries? This is a niche area to be involed with. And when I see articles about non-legaue clubs in other countries being deleted, it pains me. However, I am confident that this mentality among users in Wikipedia would change in the future. --Siva1979Talk to me 14:24, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oakley United F.C. (England)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Oakley United F.C. (England), by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Oakley United F.C. (England) fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason:

Club does not meet WikiProject Football's notability criteria (see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football/Notability)


To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Oakley United F.C. (England), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 17:47, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi I noticed that you left a messsage on the articles talk page contesting the proposed deletion. However, in order to contest it you need to go to here - [1] where you will see that users leave comments and their vote (either voting Keep or delete). If you want to contest this then you need to go there and vote to Keep, but you also need to give valid reasons as to why you vote that way. (Please note also that the vote needs to be in bold) There is no point in leaving a message on the articles talk page as it won't be seen. Please also remember that you should sign any comments by adding four tildes (~) at the end of your message. Thank you. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 15:23, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Alehouse v. Public house

I think in Oakley, Buckinghamshire you may need to spell out the distinction between alehouse and pub, because in Wikipedia Alehouse redirects to Public house. -- Roleplayer 13:09, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Good thinking hadn't thought of that Moleskin 12:23, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Oakley_Post_Office.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Oakley_Post_Office.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 02:10, 8 November 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jusjih 02:10, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
