Duplicate images uploaded
Thanks for uploading Image:Kiri Vehera at Night.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Kiri Wehera at Night.jpg. The copy called Image:Kiri Wehera at Night.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 22:47, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Image sizes
I have reverted your change to specify the image size in. In articles, images should normally be specified as thumb, without an explicit size, so that individual users can choose what size is best for them in terms of download bandwidth (speed and cost), and in terms of ink used when printing (particularly for drafts of changes). A good colourful photograph (or more) in the right place in an article can add to it appreciably, but:
 * if you like big pictures you can set your default in my preferences (see top line of every page)
 * if you like small pictures, then ditto
 * different browsers will show different things to different people
 * viewing on a different screen size will change the appearance greatly from the "ideal" set by one editor on a given computer

This is not an absolute rule, and some unusually detailed images may need to be a different size, but it is always true that what you see is not what everybody sees on their screen!

This is described in. Best wishes and welcome :) Oosoom Talk to me 11:17, 16 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Per the above, and WP:MOS please do not add sizes to thumbnail images. Andy Mabbett 22:35, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Your upload of File:Colombo-Kataragama Main Road.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!
