[edit] Quatro Soda

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Quatro Soda, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Quatro Soda. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] License tagging for Image:ThunderIsland.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:ThunderIsland.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. 16:10, 12 July 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Quick tips

Hey Scoty! Thanks for creating stubs on previously uncovered information! I'd like to suggest a couple things. First, when you add references, but don't have a reference section, they won't show up. So you'll want to add a header with ==References==, and underneath it, add {{reflist}} so the references show up. Also, would you please put the "stub" template at the bottom of the page, under the categories? And one final thing, if you want to peek at the manual of style, the subject of the article, in the first mention, should be bolded, (Using three apostrophes, such as "The '''Auto Red Bug''' automobiles..." etc. Just some little tips, and if you'd like to also add an expand tag, you could use {{expand}} at the top of the article, to let others know that it needs expanding. Thanks again for your work! Ariel♥Gold 03:12, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Defunct Television Networks

Hi Scoty,

Why are you merging Category:Defunct television channels with Category:Defunct television networks? These aren't the same thing. A channel is a frequency, and most networks broadcast on a great variety of channels, depending on the area. In fact, if there was one assigned channel for each network, a lot of the defunct networks would not be defunct today. Firsfron of Ronchester 19:27, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

- Merging because they were serving the same purpose, although the Networks had far fewer entries.
Thanks very much for your response, and your note on my talk page. We don't normally merge categories that way (they don't get redirected, and there's always a discussion about merging categories first), but I do understand your concern about duplication. I've brought this to the attention of WT:TVS, the appropriate WikiProject. Please feel free to weigh in. Best, Firsfron of Ronchester 03:23, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Aircraft image linkspamming

Hi there. Could you stop adding links to images of aircraft on all the airline pages. This could constitute linkspamming and anyway the links aren't appropriate. There are images of the aircraft on the appropriate aircraft articles, we don't need images of them linked on airline articles as well. Also the links just aren't encyclopaedic.
