[edit] Copyvio
Sorry, but I had to remove the text you copy and pasted from the Atallah Family site as it is a copyright violation. You can rewrite the text in your own words (but make sure you reference where you got the information from), but you cannot paste in text you've found elsewhere.

- I reverted the image link because it is a dead link. If you tell me where the image is located in the database, I can help you place it correctly. Also, you need to leave the Koffieyahoo's verify tag in place. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 01:40, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Help
Sarah, I'm still pretty new to this, so I'll have to review what I'm doing first.. I reloaded the pic now from a different computer because my other internet connection went over limit so it was too slow. I just figured out I can't add bitmap images so I just converted it to JPG and added it.. Hopefully this works thanks... P.S. Where do I message you from? Do I just type in here? or on your talk page? Prince Cadmus II 01:54, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- No problems, I adjusted the picture to bring it in line with the standard placement of photos as it was a little big for people with slower connections. You can message me on my talk page here: User talk:Sarah_Ewart
- No worries. It can be hard feeling your way at first, I know. With regard to references, you list your references at the end of the article under the reference list. Also, it's good to use footnotes in the text (and that will help get rid of the verify tag). If you want to, you can just put the references into the article and then I'll show you how to footnote them. If you have books or offline material you have referenced, you should also list them under the reference list at the bottom. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 02:17, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- I did a bit of research and added some references and footnotes to your article. Let me know what you think. It'd be great if you have more references for some of the other info. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 06:08, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Jieh
Hi, I'm glad you're happy with the page! I agree, it's looking really good and the extra text and picture you added look great! With regard to photos, you can either set them out like they are now or you can use an image gallery. It's really just a matter of personal preference. I can show you examples of the image galleries they have here if you want to see if you prefer them to the current layout. It has been my pleasure to help out. :) Don't hesitate to give me a yell if you need a hand with anything at all. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 19:32, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
- Wikipedia articles always show in the first few Google hits, so you don't need to worry about meta tags. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 03:02, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nice effort on the Jieh page
Good effort on the Jieh page. I was wondering if the port of Jieh is a regular international port like the ports of Beirut, Jounieh, Tripoli, Sidon, and Tyre in that they can recieve any kind of ship (passenger, cargo, etc.) from outside Lebanon.
Perhaps you could make a section in the article about the port, particularly since it caters to the biggest thermal powerplant. (MEA707 04:49, 10 March 2006 (UTC))

- Thanks for your response John. My name's Nabil. Thanks for the info about Jieh port. I was asking because I am trying to compile a list of official legal port of entries into Lebanon. I know there are 4 border crossings with Syria and at least 4 ports that can receive ships from other countries. Beirut airport is the only operational civilian airport at the moment, though this may change with the proposed future development of Kleyate airport north of Tripoli and Rayak Airbase in the Bekaa Valley. I am a university student at the moment working on a Business Administration degree. I'm just a big fan of MEA and perhaps one day in the future I will work for them! Take care.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Jieh2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Jieh2.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VegitaU 02:42, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
