Hello. Your articles Unterhaching and Kettler prompt these two tips on how to avoid the two most frequent newbie errors, both of which you committed in both articles: (1) Begin with a complete sentence, not a dictionary-style definition. (2) Highlight the title word or title phrase at its first appearance, like this. Michael Hardy 00:16, 7 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Hi, Bombay Dreams may well deserve its own article, but as it stood it was one sentence which contained no additional information that was not in the Andrew Lloyd Webber article. My apologies if you had intended to expand into a proper article, but some time had elapsed, so I assumed that the stub was all there was going to be. jimfbleak 19:10, 10 Dec 2003 (UTC)

I think you were a bit to quick.. some stubs take a while to be extended.. delpino

Where does your picture of Dudley Moore come from? It looks like a copyright violation. Secretlondon 01:35, Dec 13, 2003 (UTC)

Hi, Delpino! I saw your contributions at the Salmon article. I was wondering if you are really knowledgeable in different kinds fish and could help me identify a few kinds. I transliterated their names from Russian. Who knows, maybe they have their equivalents in English. So, could please check out my article on the Indigirka River? It's all there. Thanks.

Shot in the dark, noticed your edit on Motorhead - two Motorhead singles I fully believe deserve their own places are up for VfD (after I undid redirects from live singles to album singles, the author of the redirects immediately put both up for VfD), it'll ruin the timeline and incomplete the discography, would you help by voting to keep if you feel so inlclined. Ace of Spades (song; live) and Motörhead (song; live) are ther ones in question. Thanks. Alf 12:36, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

• Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
• Multi-Licensing Guide
• Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] Unverified image

Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:

• Image:Dudleymoore.jpg

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}}:

if you release it under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{fairuse}}

if you claim fair use, and so on.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the image from, and I'll tag it for you. Thanks so much. Denni☯ 04:23, 2004 Dec 13 (UTC)

P.S. You can help tag other images at Wikipedia:Untagged_Images. Thanks again.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Janet-gaynor.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Janet-gaynor.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairusein|article name}} or {{fairuse}}. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by going to "Your contributions" from your user page and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much. --Agnte 10:51, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Darlie.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Darlie.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. --OrphanBot 05:24, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adding new stub atricles

Hey, Thanks for adding so many cool new articles. 1 small request is that could you correctly tag them into stub categories? the main {{stub}} is deprecated and articles are supposed to be put into subject stubs like {{music-stub}} or the like.

Thanks -Jabencarsey 01:17, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Big Brother series 5

Just letting you know that although appreciated, I've removed the link to the Sun news article on the BB7 page. This is because I felt it didn't add anything to the article, nor is it related to anything discussed in the article. However, I didn't properly check the article (I'm on a break from revising for my exams :), so if I'm wrong, feel free to let me know and revert my removal. -- 9cds^(talk) 12:37, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] French town stubs

Please use {{france-stub}} rather than {{stub}}. It saves on WP:WSS sorting time. See you around! haz (user talk) 20:15, 10 June 2006

[edit] Savlon

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Savlon, 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 "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Savlon. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
