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 1000 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 " " 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 multi-license all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR
 * Option 2
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions to any U.S. state, county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace " " with "  ". 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)

Royal Flying Corps
I see you were responsible for this edit. The story is a part of our family history, and I am curious where you got it. Googling only found wikipedia copies.. Wizzy… &#9742;   11:50, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

License tagging for File:WalterHoseOnKomagataMaru.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:WalterHoseOnKomagataMaru.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 02:07, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited 2nd Dragoon Guards (Queen's Bays), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page William of Orange (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your edits to the 41 Squadron page
I don't understand why you removed my text from the Men Worthy of Note section on the 41 Squadron page. I am the Historian for 41 Squadron and the text was taken directly from a talk I wrote and presented to 41 Squadron at their 95th Anniversary in September 2011. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SPB41Sqn (talk • contribs) 03:01, 16 September 2012 (UTC)

William Ernest Shields
Hello,

Least you think my ascription of allegiance was a random one:

1) Shields' attestation papers bear his signature under his pledge of allegiance to the king.

2. Many of Shields' Canadian contemporaries self-identified as British.

3. Canadian citizenship was not fixed by law until 1947, some three decades after World War I.

And what facts, pray tell, can you muster for your edit?

Speedy deletion nomination of Margaret Howard, 2nd Baroness Strathcona and Mount Royal
Hello Cjrother,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Margaret Howard, 2nd Baroness Strathcona and Mount Royal for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion], but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

W. O. H. Dodds moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, W. O. H. Dodds, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
