Ticket to Ryde
The Beatles sung "Ticket to Ride" on the Help! Album. Ticket to Ryde has been a usefully adopted pun on this but this certainly didnt come from any of the "Fab Four" Dainamo 13:16, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)

William Rufus
Thanks for your substantial contributions to the William II of England article! I like the way you sectioned the article, and I thought your writing style added a bit of poetry to it. It's great that you took the time to work on it.


 * I did go in and tone down a couple of your edits, because I wasn't sure what the scholarly basis for them was. If you could take a look at my changes, and let me know what you think, I'd be interested to hear from you. Thanks! Steve Casburn 02:17, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)

The Humungous Image Tagging Project
Hi. You've helped with the WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

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 2000 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)

When listing this for deletion I failed to notice that the Priory of Sion it mentions is a hoax, according to our article on that subject. I now believe even more strongly that this should be deleted and thought you should have the additional information. Rmhermen 22:19, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Criteria for speedy deletion/Proposal/3
PBurka pointed out that an important omission from this proposal: a band could meet WP:MUSIC criterion #5 (sharing a member with a famous band) and still be speedily deletable by this criterion. I've added a sentence to the proposal to reflect this: it now reads ''An article about a musician or music group that does not assert having released at least one album, nor having had media coverage, nor having a member that is or was also part of a well-known music group. If the assertion is disputed or controversial, it should be taken to VFD instead.'' Please consider if you support this new wording, and change your vote if not. Yours, Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; July 5, 2005 09:55 (UTC)

CSD Proposal 3-B
You voted or commented on Criteria for speedy deletion/Proposal/3-B or  Criteria for speedy deletion/Proposal/3-A or both. I have proposed a revised version, at Criteria for speedy deletion/Proposal/3-C. This version is intended to address objections made by many of those oppsoed to 3-A or 3-B. The revised propsal refers explicitly and directly to the criteria at WP:MUSIC. If you have not already done so, please examine the revised proposal and vote on it also. Thank you.

Criteria_for_speedy_deletion/Proposal/3-C
Hello! Sorry to bother you, but since you voted on the earlier CSD proposal about unremarkable bands, it would be appreciated if you cast your vote for this version.

Vandalism at AGS
I've put both and  on WP:AIV. These users are both current students at Adams' Grammar School (I've left recently) and, I guess, think it's funny to mess around with its article.

Voltage Drop
Golly! You are fast. I just put up "Voltage Drop" and before I could Wiki link it, you beat me to it. Is there a quick way to Wikify an article? I am a Newbie and this is my first article. I haven't found out how to use the talk pages. Phil 23:39, September 3, 2005 (UTC)

Voltage drop amended
I have added text to subject page. Would you be so kind as tidy it up a bit? Someone started editing on this page even as it was first posted. How did they get there so fast? Phil 19:21, September 4, 2005 (UTC)
 * No tidying needed really, I'd say. I've done the tiny bit I found. A good page, you;ve done pretty well. As for how did they see the edit so quickly, the answer lies in Special:Recentchanges. There you can see what has been changed recently, and who did it. People look out for changes by anonymous users, and those who have no talk pages, as these are usually new users. New pages created by anonymous users are particularly scrutinised. That way, those who need help can be given it, and those who are up to no good can be thwarted. Once you've got a bit more editing under your belt why not go and have a go yourself? See RC_patrol for lots more details and advice of what this is about. Naturenet | Talk 20:20, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Voltage drop - Para added
I have added a paragraph which no doubt needs your attention. I think perhaps anymore text will be overkill on this subject. Agree? Thanks for your help. Phil 15:28, September 6, 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, if you've got more to say, and it's relevent, then go for it. But in general I'd tend to agree. Perhaps all that's missing for the fully-rounded article is a photo - perhaps some pylons, or a substation or something. Once more I see no need to subedit - you've got the hang of this thing well enough I'd say. Well done. And remember, be bold!

Mllywchilyntnjnskkwyll
Why do you want this deleted, this is a real place - I know that because I live there. Americans! Mllywchilyntnjnskkwyll 20:14, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Well the name isn't Welsh as its made to look - 'Mll' is not a possible opening combination, its impossible to pronounce, as possibly is the -ntn- depending where the syllable break is. Also there is no 'j' and no 'k' in the Welsh alphabet, and even if they were -ntnjnskk- is not pronounceable in any language where all those letters are consonants. In Welsh the vowels are 'a' 'e' 'i' 'o' 'u' 'w' 'y' ('w' can be a consonant or a vowel). The closest Welsh would get to that is something like Millyŵchilyntngscwll, but that is just an approximation of sounds and it doens't feel Welsh at all. If it were an Anglicanisation of the Welsh it would be something along the lines of Millychilly Enjunskwill - but this doesn't look anything like a typical anglicanisation of Welsh. Thryduulf 22:15, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Adam's Grammar School
Probably the best thing to do is to contact the school and let them know about the vandalism. Ask at WP:AN/I if you don't feel confident to do do this. Thryduulf 22:15, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Sources for Contus
Hello, good work on Contus, and thanks for the contribution. However, you did not provide any references or sources in the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. From what websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to Contus? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? You can simply add links, or see WP:CITET if you wish to review some of the different citation methods. Thanks! Lupin|talk|popups 03:43, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Elm (and cutting thereof)
Thanks for the message. Not that I'm particularly bothered about the article, but it ought to go somewhere category-wise. As it stands it's mostly about the event and implicitly about the tree (not that there's really anything to be said about the tree). We currently don't have a category for tree-related malarkey, so if it doesn't go with elms and if it's not really an individual tree, then I don't know where people might want to go looking for it - but it ought to be categorised somewhere, poor thing. Man vyi 22:26, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I do know what you mean. 'Dubious tales involving a tree' isn't going to be a massive category. You seem to know a thing or two about the Normans. Isn't there a cat that might suit it around there somewhere? or I suppose there's always the Crusades, or something. I only really got interested in it from the tree point of view. The history stuff is all new to me, albeit jolly interesting! Naturenet | Talk 22:37, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
 * It might go in an as-yet uncreated History of Normandy category - but perhaps a Treelore category is required to contain other odd articles such as Man-eating tree! Man vyi 09:33, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Not forgetting the ever-popular Exploding tree :-) Man vyi 09:43, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
 * What fantastic links! Nice one. OK, let's leave it in 'Trees'. You are right. And if anyone can be bothered to make a 'Treelore' cat all three of these are undoubtedly candidates. Naturenet | Talk 18:40, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Dunk meister
Part of the problem is that even when he does talk on the talk pages he only does to to announce his absolut correctness, something not a lot mroe useful than his making edites no one agrees with. Its too bad because if he worked with us I think we coudl find a wording that would at least be slightly better for his view (though I will till object to the catagory). At the moment I have given up on talking to him and am just reverting the parts of his changes that are aganst consensus. Dalf | Talk 12:08, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
 * You're quite right - and I agree particularly that he is not beyond hope. But eventually something must be done. We can't all stand around reverting him forever, we have other things to do! I suggest reporting him to Administrator intervention against vandalism if he persists. Naturenet | Talk 12:14, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
 * That is probbly a good plan, though in the grand schem of things what he is doing is really annoying but not one of the more major cases of vandalism that wikipedia deals with so we may not get a lot of traction right away. It is at least a good step to get mroe people involved and hopefully get him to engage in some mroe reasonable conversation. Dalf | Talk 12:19, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

speckled wood
All right, you've got me! I just thought that it was a nice pic and wanted to put it up. It was taken at the fen and if we can think of a better place and context to put it in I'd be glad to change it.
 * Yes, good pic - taken in St Edmund's Fen I'd guess? or possibly up by the brickpits. Perhaps you'd be willing to take the picture off for now until you do find a good home for it? Naturenet | Talk 09:44, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Image:Spinneyabbey1.jpg
Hi. Some time ago, you uploaded Image:Spinneyabbey1.jpg under a non-commercial only license. At the time, such images were permitted on Wikipedia. That is, however, no longer the case.

I think there are so many charming areas in Isle of Wight and they have no articles yet. Not enough contributors?--Filll 17:38, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't agree. There are many articles about the Isle of Wight, like these:

plus another 65 or so here. Already quite a few more than, for example (to take another much larger county at random), Lancashire. Anyway, if you think more are needed, be bold, create them. But I'd suggest that they need content, not just stubs. Naturenet | Talk 19:11, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. Good content. Not just "rubbish" pickup times, although to be honest that tickles my funny bone. I think it would be hilarious but you are right, not very encyclopedic. It is just so easy to find that information for the Isle of Wight. Most other places on the planet would not display it so openly I think.--Filll 20:32, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Great Hedge
Hello, you might want to take a look at my edits and discussion on Great Hedge of India. Your edit summary made it sound as though you felt the Great Hedge might be a hoax. I wondered about that myself, from the first time I saw the book in a bookstore, but as far as I can tell, it is not. As you can see from my edits, I've found some references to the Customs Line in contemporary accounts (not quotations by Moxham); and though it is true that there is not a large secondary literature, he seems to be cited fairly often (given the obscurity of the subject) -- search for salt-tax | customs-line)  on Google Scholar, say. It does seem that the name "Great Hedge of India" was popularized by Moxham, however. --Macrakis 19:38, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Why'd you revert my edits without so much as a discussion? -24.149.185.189 (talk) 10:58, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Because I thought it was a trivial edit, and you are an anonymous user. Obviously you don't think that, so feel free to start the discussion. I'd also encourage you to register - people will take your edits more seriously then. Naturenet | Talk 12:07, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * There is no need to be anonphobic. Many spammers and trolls have Wiki accounts, and many anons make positive contributions to Wikipedia.  It is a bit elitist and prejudice to simply revert all anon edits, and treat anons like second-class users.  In fact, I believe that's the antithesis of Wikipedia's purpose. -24.149.203.34 (talk) 01:28, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Iwclogo1.gif
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Iwclogo1.gif. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. Project FMF (talk) 13:36, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

"on" the Isle of Wight
Hello, I'm not sure how active you are on Wikimedia Commons, but there is currently a discussion on re-naming the Isle of Wight categories to "in the Isle of Wight" from the current "on the Isle of Wight". As a fellow islander I'm fairly sure we'd agree the current "on" is far more accurate, but your input may help in forming a consensus.
