Thanks for uploading Image:ParvizYahaghi.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.

[edit] Ernest Walton Facts

Just read the article about Ernest Walton and I noticed a strange anomlie that you introduced in the "Later Years" section. The text now indicates that he returned to Belfast after his retirement and eventually died there. Maybe he did return to Belfast breifly after his retirement but I remember him attending church every Sunday in Methodist Centenary, Leeson Park, Dublin until he died in 1995; in fact he sat in the same pew as my family! Could you please verify your source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.67.39.167 (talk) 19:47, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

The president of Republic of Ireland, Mary Robinson, paid an official visit to Walton in 1994 at the Belfast nursing home he was living in (http://www.tcd.ie/Physics/history/walton/walton_biography.php). That establishes that Walton had moved north by that year. Needless to say, all the newspaper obituaries in 1995 say he died in Belfast. The Walton bio written by Brian Cathcart does not mention what year Walton moved north, unfortunately. I read -- somewhere -- that he moved to the Greater Belfast area soon after his 1974 retirement and long before going into a nursing home. Since you're doubting that, I'll look at the Walton bio by Vincent McBrierty which I expect gives the year, and I'll use that as the source once I've seen it. In the meantime, don't let me stop you from looking it up yourself.

Reply: Thanks for your interest, I'll try to verify my facts as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.67.39.167 (talk) 13:53, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Record of Irish Protestants v Irish Catholics

Interesting stuff you are trying to insert into the Ireland article. But without giving the reasons for the difference (Protestant resources and education v Catholic poverty and starvation) it is very misleading. Today the picture is rather different isn't it? The "Catholic" state is one of the most prosperous on Earth near the top of every positive index available while the "Protestant" one is a basket case living on subsidies. (Of course there are reasons for that too, not implying anything negative about being Protestant, I'm 25% myself). So maybe we should steer away from introducing sectarian comparisons?

[edit] Home schooling in Germany

Thanks for excising the bias from the section you added on home schooling in Germany. Please see my comments on the talk page about additional problems (all minor) that I see with the section. -Amatulić (talk) 00:12, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Your comments

Thanks for the comments you left on my page. It certainly will be interesting to see how Wikipedia develops over the next few years. - I did some work on the Adair Crawford article and will see if I have anything to add to the one about Ernest Walton, mentioned above. - Astrochemist (talk) 15:41, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
