Your various contributions to Cheshire-related articles (e.g., Culcheth and Glazebury, and others)
hello, and welcome to wikipedia. I see you have added quite a bit of information to some Cheshire-related articles (using "Cheshire" in its ceremonial-county role). Thank you for them! I wonder if you would consider improving your contributions even more? To do that, it would be helpful if you were able to read through WP:UKCITIES and use that you guide you in structuring the articles. Similarly, it would also help immensely if you could give more detailed references to the sources you have used to write the information. I've already edited some of your contributions to make the referencing conform more to the way wikipedia likes them done, but it would be really good if you could try to make your contributions more like that to begin with. I've made some of the changes for you, but there will be others I have missed, or which I cannot complete because you have given only general pointers to a document (so including page numbers will help a lot.) I know it may be a lot to take in in a short time, but trying to master it now will, I am sure, help make the editing experience for you much more enjoyable in the long term. Thanks. DDStretch   (talk)  09:53, 17 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello again. I've noticed you've removed some information from the references in High Legh. It was not a good idea to do that, as the information is required and conforms to policy over what should be included in references to websites. You can find out about this in WP:V, and WP:CITE[[, as well as [[WP:References. I hope you can avoid doing this in future, and so help make your contributions better than they are at the moment. Regards.  DDStretch    (talk)  09:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Arms of His Grace Archbishop Lawrence Booth.jpg
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia

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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Oore (talk) 00:29, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Your editing style
I would like to bring a couple of style points to your attention. Do ask if you have any questions and I'd be happy to help. --Simple Bob (talk) 07:37, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
 * References should be placed immediately after punctuation without any spaces. You place a space, then the reference and then the punctuation. You have even undone/redone my changes when I have corrected you. Take a look at Referencing for beginners.
 * Linking individual years is not generally done on Wikipedia. See the year linking section in WP:OVERLINK.

File copyright problem with File:LawrenceBootharms.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:LawrenceBootharms.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Skier Dude ( talk ) 23:32, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

August 2010
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Bowdon, Greater Manchester. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Trafford09 (talk) 01:00, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Bowdon, Greater Manchester, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Trafford09 (talk) 01:01, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Stop it
Stop putting repetedly machine-translated articles in other Wikipedias, like you did in the Romanian-language version. I am talking about the Donald Adamson article. BTW, Adamson is a proper name and should be spelled with capital A. If you don't speak the language, leave it to others to write those articles.--Mycomp (talk) 03:47, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Luke Palmer


The article Luke Palmer has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Coolug (talk) 20:50, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Curriers' Coat of Arms.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Curriers' Coat of Arms.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) 07:07, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

Image tagging for File:Curriers' Coat of Arms.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Curriers' Coat of Arms.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 02:06, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Margaret Adamson
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Margaret Adamson, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.expatwomen.com/success-stories/margaret_adamson.php.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 01:14, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

February 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Anne Adamson, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. The reverted edit can be found here. Thank you. Kwiki (talk) 01:38, 10 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Regarding the above notice. If you accidentally create a page with the wrong name, you can follow the procedures at WP:SPEEDY to have the page deleted rather than attempting to blank the page which is generally a sign of a vandal. Active Banana    (bananaphone  03:07, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of James Bradshaw Adamson


A tag has been placed on James Bradshaw Adamson 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 a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. EBE123(talk) 22:03, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Bernard Émié
Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Bernard Émié. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! --LaraBot (talk) 00:10, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

George Lucas Adamson
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of George Lucas Adamson, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://www.adamson.edu.ph/about/history.shtml.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Arms of Lawrence Booth
If the source is copyright then uploading could be an issue. There is a heraldry and vexilollogy project where sometimes you can have a set of arms made from a blazon, by one skilled in the arts. I made the Stamford Town Council arms from existing sets of arms, with a little help, so if it's not difficult that could be a route to go down. Rich Farmbrough, 12:38, 29 March 2011 (UTC).

Speedy deletion nomination of George Lucas Adamson


A tag has been placed on George Lucas Adamson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please see the to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 20:42, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of James Adamson (soldier)


The article James Adamson (soldier) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * BLP of soldier with no significant claim to Notability. Many individuals get gallantry awards, and only the highest ranking award recipients are notable in of themselves per WP:MILPEOPLE

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Sadads (talk) 12:23, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of James Adamson (soldier) for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article James Adamson (soldier) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/James Adamson (soldier) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Sadads (talk) 00:37, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

List of Presidents of Surrey CCC
Thanks for your improvements to this list. Could you tell me where you found the information that Maurice Allom had a US DFC? It seems rather a surprising decoration for him to have had. Thanks. JH (talk page) 08:56, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Godfrey Milton-Thompson


The article Godfrey Milton-Thompson has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk.

File permission problem with File:Hurst Hall.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Hurst Hall.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

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 File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 21:58, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as on Media copyright questions, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or  located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 22:00, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Images
I have taken the liberty of turning on auto archiving for this page so the advice I gave you before may well have disappeared by the time you read this. Have a look at - preferred format but not quite right licence details and  - inappropriate format but tagged with German precision. It is probably too ambitious to get you to create SVGs (I don't know how myself) but you should certainly take note of the image description of Balliol-College-Wappen.gif.

Don't be shy about uploading your own photos - at least with them the copyright position is simple. Look at 04b266 adamandeve.jpg it is really crap photo but it is used in four Wikipedia articles. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:43, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
