St Margaret's Church, Ifield‎
Many thanks for finding and uploading the image of the effigy! Hassocks 5489 (tickets please!)  13:39, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

You are welcome. Thanks for the article. I was surprised that a Google image search yielded only that one image - and also that I was able to get ahold of the photographer so quickly. Riordanmr (talk) 00:58, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:EffigyOfSirJohndeIfelde.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:EffigyOfSirJohndeIfelde.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

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.

 * Wow, that doesn't make any sense to me. I got explicit permission from the photographer. Riordanmr (talk) 17:15, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Edit-a-thon in Madison
I saw that you live in Madison (based on your userpage), so if you're interested, I wanted to invite you to a humanities edit-a-thon in the Madison Public Library on Friday, April 25th (1:30–3:30). It'll be on the shorter side and is aimed at new editors, but I hope to see you there. More information is available on the 2014 UW Conference on the Public Humanities website. Let me know if you have any questions czar ♔  03:54, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Whoops, sorry, missed that. And now I live in Arizona.  Hope it worked out.  Riordanmr (talk) 20:20, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
