[edit] Peers & categories

Hi Jbattersby. It's just to let you know that peers are categorised by their title and not their surnames, as I see you've been changing a few of them (but I've reverted your edits). Thanks Craigy (talk) 17:36, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:1970.triumph.vitesse.convertable.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:1970.triumph.vitesse.convertable.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media 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 media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, 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 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 any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 21:33, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] traction engine image

Isn't that a showman's engine? GraemeLeggett 16:01, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Paulakin

Thanks for cleaning up Paulakin's vandalism. You might want to know that redirects created when cleaning up page move vandalism falls within the criteria for speedy deletion (it's G3). Hence, if you find yourself in a similar situation in the future, it is probably simpler to add

{{db|G3: redirect created during cleanup of page move vandalism}}

or something similar to the redirect page. Let me know if it's not clear to you. Thanks again for the good work, Jitse Niesen (talk) 15:28, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] BARB viewing figures

I'm intruiged by the stated release of this image into the public domain, and how this contrasts with the BARB terms and conditions which state that all material on the website (including the figures from which the interesting graph are derived) and all rights in it belongs to BARB. Are you confident in the right to publish such a derivative work? StephenDawson 16:20, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category: Green Wing actors

Hi. I noticed you were recategorising some actor articles and wanted to check you knew that Category:Green Wing actors doesn't yet exist. Cheers. —Whouk (talk) 17:48, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Cool, just checking :-) —Whouk (talk) 17:57, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help on Green Wing

Hi. I should really credit you for all the help that you have done with Green Wing, you've certianly taught me one-or-two things. I've also added that reference section. ISD 16:07, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A friendly question on Green Wing

Hi Jbattersby! I was just wondering, as a fellow Green Wing fan if you had signed that petiton at all. I'm not forcing you to sign it or anything, that would be wrong. I'm just asking as a friend. ISD 06:52, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Now!

OK, I'll avoid them for now. Feel free to revert if you like. Having said that, the discussion at albums was inconclusive (as are a lot of discussions in that project - don't know why). Perhaps it's time to give some more thought to updating the guideline page?

Starting those articles makes you a kindred spirit, as I entered and corrected a lot of Now! track listings on the Free CDDB, may years ago. Rich Farmbrough 18:59 14 August 2006 (GMT).
