Scottish Ambulance Service
Hi, you created an excellent image for the Scottish ambulance Service Page showing the split of divisions, as the north West and North East have (finally) Merged, would you possibly be able to rejig it to reflect the new split of divisions? Thanks Dave Polstar (talk) 11:48, 9 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks Polstar, Thanks for your message. I've already started it and should be finished in a couple of days.User:Scanbus (talk) 15:15, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

License tagging for File:EMRS.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:EMRS.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) 21:05, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with File:Vanhoollogo.gif
Thanks for uploading File:Vanhoollogo.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like PD-self (to release all rights), (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

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

This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 19:40, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Image permission problem with Image:Wright Bros.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Wright Bros.jpg I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media 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 GFDL 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 [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org], 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 did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org].

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 Image copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Image 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 uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. –Drilnoth (T • C) 02:05, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Logo scotamb.gif)
 Thanks for uploading Image:Logo scotamb.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk ) 21:03, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Hertzmikkola.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Hertzmikkola.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:39, 2 May 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 18:39, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:34, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Argyll Ferries
Hi Scanbus,

Our company is "Argyll Ferries" and has been since 1988. We registered it in 1988 and have had that corporate identity ever since in one form or another.

When you posted your contribution about "Argyll Ferries" on Wikipedia, it was only fair that we mentioned our company.

The fact that CalMac have registered their version of "Argyll Ferries Ltd" at Companies House is something we are hoping to resolve. We have offered to surrender our corporate name for a nominal one pound plus a donation to a registered charity. We are awaiting a response from CalMac since the issue was brought to our attention on 4th June 2011.

As things stand, I would be obliged if you could post a complete picture of "Argyll Ferries" or completely remove all reference to it on Wiki until the issue of our company is resolved.

Many thanks.

 * Hi Russ, thanks for your comment, I feel that this specific Wiki article is about the CalMac entity 'Argyll Ferries Ltd', and is not about the history of the name 'Argyll Ferries Ltd' in general. I feel removing the whole article is counter productive as the CalMac entity is relevant and is indeed a topical issue at the moment. At Companies House, the only currently registered 'Argyll Ferries Ltd' is the CalMac one, however, I have added a small section to the article regarding the dispute surrounding the name.scanbus (talk) 09:07, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Hello Scanbus,


 * Thanks for the update. With respect this issue isn't about what any of us feel. It is about facts. The Wikipedia is a marvellous resource, but there is a big world beyond the virtual computer references. That includes legal corporate rights. Ours appear to have been abrogated and subsumed in relation to the Argyll Ferries article. The amendment whilst gentle and well intentioned, was worded in a way which was almost derogatory.


 * I would ask, as this issue has the possibility to become sub judice, in both Scotland and California where I understand Wikipedia is based, it should be handled delicately and cautiously.


 * Either ALL of the information regarding the company Argyll Ferries, or NONE of it should be posted. At least until the legal side of the matter has been settled. A one sided Wikipedia reference is bias, and places in the public domain something that is neither balanced, complete, accurate, nor fully true.


 * Hopefully this helps.


 * Best regards,


 * Russ McLean — Preceding unsigned comment added by Russ McLean (talk • contribs) 10:53, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Seven Troop (book)


A tag has been placed on Seven Troop (book), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising,. Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit |the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Ahunt (talk) 16:09, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
