Hi David, and welcome to Wikipedia. I just saw that you uploaded Image:Bluff maritime.jpg. Could I ask you to please re-upload it (there's a little link on the bottom of the image page with which you can overwrite the older version) in a much larger format? Surely with you holding the copyright, you also have it in a more useful size? Images do not have to be compressed or resized for use on Wikipedia, they are automatically resized for thumbnail use. Please ask on my talk page if you have any questions on this or other Wikipedia matters. Cheers and happy editing. Ingolfson (talk) 12:09, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Sure thing. I'll have to rescan it but that's neither here nor there talk


 * Would be great if you could do so! PS: you can add your name to any talk page paragraph you have written by writing "~" (without the quotation marks) behind your entry. This will automatically convert itself to a link to your user id and provide a timestamp (this is the usual way of signing your talk page edits on Wikipedia). Cheers.

Concern regarding Draft:Jason Kerrison
Hello, David Dudfield. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Jason Kerrison, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again&#32;or request that it be moved to your userspace.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Jason Kerrison


A tag has been placed on Draft:Jason Kerrison requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.musicglue.com/jason-kerrison/about. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
