Hello, I saw that you renamed the article "Fall of Stirling Castle" to "Siege of Stirling Castle" by copy and pasting. This is not the best way to rename (move) an article since the edit history remains at the old location. Using Wikipedia's built-in move feature, the edit history can be transferred to the new title along with the content. Please see How to rename (move) a page. I've gone ahead and done this for the Stirling Castle article, but keep this in mind in the future. Enjoy, Minesweeper 12:35, Nov 14, 2003 (UTC)

FYI, the relationship between Giric of Scotland and Eochaid of Scotland was that they were first cousins once removed: where Aed I of Scotland was Eochaid's uncle, he was Giric's first cousin. The Giric page was correct and I have recorrected it. I have also clarified the relationship between Giric and Eochaid on the Eochaid page. Graham :) 00:49, 3 Dec 2003 (UTC)

image source
For all images you upload, you must give the source so that we can judge whether the licence is valid. I am particularly suspicious of Image:Seafield colliery tower demolition.jpg. -- RHaworth 02:45, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Don't tell me. Add the source to the image description. If it is from a newspaper then you definitely must get permission. -- RHaworth 02:41, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I got his image from a local newspaper website. There was no copyright notice on it. If that is not good enough I can contact the website and ask for permission. User:gmh04 06:47, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Seafield
Please supply a grid ref for Seafield Colliery - there are several Seafields near the Firth of Forth. -- RHaworth 02:57, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

I find streetmap the best - having found the point of interest, go to Click here to convert/measure coordinates at the bottom of the page for all the co-ordinates you could ever possibly need. -- RHaworth 02:41, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't know how to find this ref. Can you help? User:gmh04 09:51, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Registry of Open Access Repositories
A tag has been placed on Registry of Open Access Repositories requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
