[edit] Help: formatting

I'm pretty clumsy with the pics & text. Please feel free to modify. Ex0pos 02:42, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

Some brief cue should be added at Ur so that readers will find this article. --Wetman 10:13, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Done. Thanks for the suggestion. Ex0pos 21:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

But we are not even close to being done.

[edit] Image

Unless someone objects, I am going to replace Image:Standard_of_ur1.jpg with Image:Standard of Ur - peace side.jpg. Dar-Ape 17:08, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

That's fine with me. But would you mind if, at some point after you upload, I slightly edit the image with photoshop to enhance the colors and bring out the details? Ex0pos 22:17, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Standard of ur1.jpg

Image:Standard of ur1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:36, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] inlaid mosaic of what??

I am guessing with some conviction that inlay was made of shell and not hell, so am making the change. If I am wrong, don't hesitate...Amity150 03:57, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
