[edit] Image:HMS Dauntless D33.jpg

Did you have the permission of the Base/Shipyard? As I understood some naval facilities were off limits for photography because they came within the scope of 'the act' (i.e were 'restricted' or secret areas)?

Bae, which owns the yard, did allow photography in the areas I have photographed. Nothing in those photographs is in a classified or secret area. Steel city ady 13:21, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

VT group plc own the building, not Bae, my mistake. Steel city ady 20:17, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Did you have permission of the vessel/base concerned? Sfan00 IMG 12:05, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

HMNB Portsmouth did allow permission for photography during the International Festival Of the Sea (IFOR) celebrations. All precautions were taken to ensure no classified or secret areas were photographed. Steel city ady 13:21, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Images queried earlier

OK have added the clarifcations you made to the image summary. You might want to add simmilar clarifcations to other simmilar photos you may have uploaded.

Will do. Can tell I'm new to adding pictures, can't you? :-) Steel city ady 14:02, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

BTW If you are happy with these being under a 'free' licence, I strongly suggest you upload them to Wikimedia Commons :) Sfan00 IMG 13:59, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

How do I do that? Sounds like the way forward. Steel city ady 14:02, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Try asking politely on Wikimedia Commons or if you have IRC #Wikimedia-commons on freenode :) ShakespeareFan00 21:43, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

I added an image for RFA Fort Rosalie A385 - the larer version doesn't seem to come up for people not logged in with id's - the message says an image isn't uploaded, but you can see the smaller version on the page itself. Any suggestions? Steel city ady 10:18, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

I have added clarification on this image that permission was granted for photography and no classified locations or details were compromised by the photography. Steel city ady 14:15, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome

Welcome to WP:Ships! I particularly enjoy the pictures you are adding to Royal Navy ships articles. Maralia 04:41, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. I am doing my best to update the images for entries where there are none, as well as adding to the various histories and details from people I have spoken to at the various bases and entries on the royal navy website. Naturally, citing sources for the word-of-mouth firsthand material will be hard. Steel city ady 17:09, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
