[edit] Please respect copyrights

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Adam Polkinghorne article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I irrevocably release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, for use on Wikipedia and elsewhere."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 10:31, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clarence, Tasmania

We appreciate your contributions to the Clarence, Tasmania article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. For this reason your edits have been reverted or removed. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the information in your own words, if you do please remember to cite your source(s). For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Thanks, and in addition to this, I notice you have edited many other articles relating to Hobart's eastern shore. I haven't checked them for copyright violations, but could you check your edits and make sure there is nothing which will cause a problem? Thanks -- Chuq 20:18, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Links to disambiguation pages

Hi there, I notice you have created a few more articles about local Tasmanian landmarks. This is great, but you may not have noticed that Derwent River and Mount Wellington are disambiguation pages - they are lists of rivers of mountains that go by that name. These links will have to be fixed by others in the future, so it would be helpful if, when creating the page, you link to the articles Derwent River (Tasmania) and Mount Wellington (Tasmania). If you add a "|" after the "(Tasmania)" you will create links that point to the correct article, but do not show the "(Tasmania)", such as Derwent River and Mount Wellington. -- Chuq 11:55, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] unblock

This user's request to have the autoblock on his/her IP address lifted has been DECLINED.

$2

  • Decline reason:

Insufficient information given to find the block. Unable to consider. -- Yamla 00:49, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

The information for this unblock is incomplete... we can't help unless all the info is there. ---J.S (T/C) 21:55, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

As J.Smith mentioned: We can't unblock you at this time, because you haven't given us the information we need to look into your block. You yourself were not blocked; if you were prevented from editing, you must have been autoblocked or blocked because of your IP address. I'm removing your unblock request because there's nothing we can do without this information. If you are still autoblocked by the time you read this message:

  1. If you have a Wikipedia account, please ensure that you are logged in.
    Your account name will be visible in the top right of this page if you are. If it isn't, try clearing your cache.
  2. Try and edit the Wikipedia:Sandbox by clicking here.
  3. Copy the {{unblock-auto|...}} code generated for you under the "Autoblocked?" section.
  4. Paste the code at the bottom of your user talk page and click save.

If you are not blocked from editing the sandbox then the autoblock on your IP address has already expired and you can resume editing. Luna Santin 00:48, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

I see that you are currently editing so I guess your block must have expired. --WinHunter (talk) 09:41, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Request handled by: WinHunter (talk) 09:41, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the help to unblock - Cheers everyone. How do I get rid of the info about being blocked from my infobox on my user page? It seems to be invisible on my edit sandbox?!?

You had {{username}} in the sidebar; I've removed it for you. EVula // talk // ☯ // 15:50, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

{{helpme}} Can anybody tell me why my contents box sits at the bottom of my userpage?!? I have NOEYEDEER!

I'm not quite sure what caused that, but I forced the Table of Contents to the top of the page by adding __TOC__ to the wikicode. You can change the location of the Table of Contents by moving that command whereever you like. SWAdair | Talk 08:51, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Unilogo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Unilogo.gif. 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. 12:09, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cricket Project

Hello Rac Fleming. I saw your comment at WP:AUSSPORT. Unfortunately that project is mostly dormant. Feel free to join us at the cricket project, where there is also a quiz for a spot of fun. Thanks, Blnguyen (bananabucket) 23:15, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Fire Service

Hello, I was browsing WikiPedia and noticed that you are/were a firefighter. I highly encourage you to stop by and check out our WikiProject relating to the Fire Service around the world. We are in need of many editors and administrators to help the cause. Stay safe, Daysleeper47 19:04, 12 January 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Tas Project

Hi are you aware of the recently started WP Wiki Project Tasmania starting up? I have just been tagging the 10 highest mountains of tas article that you started (It needs a lot of work...) and have had a bit of a travel through your user page (the largest most revealing one I have found for a while...) and thought you might need to know about it! I used to live on the west coast for a while... many years ago (about the time you were 1 year old....) SatuSuro 00:47, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
