''This page was placed on Votes for Deletion in June 2004. Consensus was to keep; view discussion at /Delete.''

In that case, I'll try to spend a little time on it over the next few days, incorporating some of the good stuff from the section in Alfred the Great. Chris Jefferies 22:40, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)

You may be interested to know that both the Parish and the Town of North Petherton (which includes the vilages North Newton, Moorland & Somerset Bridge), in Somerset have adopted the Alfred Jewel as a symbol for the population. North Petherton is apparently the smallest town in the Country and, therefore, has a Town Mayor who has a badge of Office which includes a replica of the Alfred Jewel. The rector (The Rev Sue Rose)of the parish has incorporated the badge in her robes, and the newly formed North Petherton Bowls Club has also adopted the symbol. Phillip Spencer, Deputy Mayor North Petherton

Fair use rationale for Image:Alfred jewel.JPG
Image:Alfred jewel.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 Wikipedia articles 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.

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.Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 18:14, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Alfred jewel.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Alfred jewel.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:29, 5 November 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Papa November 10:29, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Explanation of its "Discovery" please
"It was discovered in 1693 ..." What exactly does "discovered" mean here? Was it found buried; found in someone's attic or what? 146.198.148.164 (talk) 14:41, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
