[edit] Couple points
Hi, a couple somewhat random points -
Regards your edits to Orange (fruit) in December, consider using citation templates. It's not mandatory, but it's also easy to do and produces a more useful, standardized template that's auto-formatted. There's a bunch of tools that can help, though unfortunately none that I've found for websites (the {{cite web}} template).
- Citation templates (again)
- Reference generator (uses filling fields)
- pubmed/isbn template generator (using a pubmed or isbn, will automatically generate a template for you, very handy!)
- Google scholar autocitation (uses a google-type search engine to find scholarly articles)
- tools (various others)
Also, though it's not mandatory, archiving is preferrable to outright deletion of information from a talk page.
Thanks,

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Elvis publicity photo.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Elvis publicity photo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 20:28, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
