Just a quick note. You need to put your four tildes after your comments on Talk pages, not in the edit summary. AlistairMcMillan 01:22, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

Scottish Wikipedians' notice board
Wow! I am extremely impressed by your wonderful edits at John Mair. Just what we need, but see all too rarely. (Or perhaps because I do not read enough of the heavy, academic articles.

Please visit the new Scottish notice board. Here's shortcut: WP:SCOWNB, plus the new Portal:Scotland. Click the "Watch" tab while you are there, and sign up at the bottom if you like. We'd be very pleased to have you on board.--Mais oui! 23:05, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

Cadoc and Cambuslang
Just saw your addition to Cadoc. I followed the link and took a while reading through to find why on earth it had been linked. If it's the church you want to link to, and the article is relatively stable, it might be worth linking directly to the section in question, either visibly (Cambuslang) or not (Cambuslang - you need to read the source to see that one). Or even just "The dedication of the church at Cambuslang" would do, which gives enough information for the curious to skip ahead to it. Also, I am a bit curious: have you a reference for the "recorded as wandering about the hills of Strathclyde" mention? The Cadoc article doesn't have anything about this, so it would be good to get the two articles in sync and to make a start of references for Cadoc: currently all we have is a note that one book is not to be trusted :) Telsa (talk) 17:33, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Statistical Accounts of Scotland
Thanks for writing this excellent intro on the accounts. Very useful. I made some redirects, like Old Statistical Account and so on. If you are writing Scots articles, you may like to have a look at the Scottish WP noticeboard, and there's a New articles page which will get things noticed. Or that's the idea anyway. Best of luck !

Your reverts on Greece
Hi, why did you re-introduce your edit I had previously reverted on Greece, regarding the Greek Orthodox Church ? I thought my edit summary was pretty self-explanatory: Church of Greece is factually incorrect in this instance. "Greek Orthodox Church" may be formally tagged as a dab page, but I believe it is actually the most informative place to point to in this instance. I'm a bit astonished at your seemingly mechanistic revert, are you a bot? Fut.Perf. ☼ 13:49, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * P.S. May I also ask you to be more careful in general with replacing those links, unless you are very certain about their factual accuracy? For instance here: - I doubt a Greek church in Hungary would belong to the actual Church of Greece; AFAIR orthodox churches across Europe are under the jurisdiction of the Church of Constantinople, but as long as we are not sure, the more general page "Greek Orthodox Church" seems more appropriate. Fut.Perf. ☼ 13:55, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I've felt I had to revert or correct quite a couple of your edits on this matter. If you are concerned on formal grounds that links shouldn't go to dab pages, I think the best thing to do is to just no longer tag Greek Orthodox Church as a dab page. I left a note at the Disambiguation pages with links page too, and there's now a discussion ongoing at Talk:Greece. Fut.Perf. ☼ 15:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for your reply. I can see your concern, of course. If we can agree that that page should just not be treated like any garden-variety dab page in certein respects, there won't be a problem. Maybe the best thing would be to slightly expand that article, making it clear to the reader that "Greek Orthodoxy" as such is a concept more of historical-cultural-national self-identification than of either theological doctrine or church organisation. In theological terms, a person belongs simply to the Eastern Orthodox Church; in terms of ecclesiastical jurisdiction a parish or bishopric may belong to the Curch of Greece or the Patriarchate of Constantinople or whatever (but that's not a distinction of denomination of the parishioners). But still, people will implicitly self-identify as "Greek Orthodox", and many of the incoming links to that article are from pages where it's really that historical self-identification concept that's at issue, and the other distinctions are simply not very relevant. Fut.Perf. ☼ 20:47, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Your articles on ministers
Hey, your contributions are certainly well-researched and appreciated, but I and other users feel that some of the people you've added don't qualify for inclusion in Wikipedia based on Wikipedia's notability criteria. Some are up for deletion at Articles for deletion/J E Houston, Minister, Articles for deletion/Robert Blair, Minister, and Articles for deletion/John Robertson, Minister. Your input in those discussions is certainly welcome. Regards, Elmer Clark 00:32, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Your edit to John Robertson (minister)
Your recent edit to John Robertson (minister) (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior. Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // AntiVandalBot 13:47, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Just FYI when you want to redirect a page to another page, you need to use #REDIRECT New PageName - that will automatically redirect the page and be less confusing for the user. -- Tawker 13:59, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Hew Scott
I have nominated Hew Scott, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Hew Scott. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Tribute to the martyrs
Thanks for creating Martyrs' Public School, a very good start. Couple of handy hints - avoid a space at the start of a line or it upsets the formatting, and as you can see by looking at the link in the next sentence when editing, single [ ] brackets work with external links, with a space between the link and the title. Being lazy, I used this tool to get the webpage title of the external link without having to type it myself. Very handy. Thanks again, ... dave souza, talk 20:35, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Tony164! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the article:

Jan Standonck
You whrite that Jan Standonck was enrolled on 22 November 1469 at the Catholic University of Leuven, but this University founded as a Gregorian University in Malines in 1834, was not existing in the time of John Standonck. It is then more accurate to say that he was enrolled at the Old University of Louvain.--Bruxellensis (talk) 16:15, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of J E Houston


A tag has been placed on J E Houston 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. --Nuujinn (talk) 23:22, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Lilybank
Hi, I've been decorating the articles for the areas of Glasgow with infoboxes, and have got as far as Lilybank. And I've had a little difficulty with it as it appears to have been quietly forgotten following the BBC documentary of the 1970s... could you give me an idea which are the main streets that made up the estate? Cheers Catfish Jim   &#38; the soapdish  15:37, 9 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Fantastic, thanks! I had been going on the coordinates a previous editor had placed in the article, which turned out to be about a mile to the east in Shettleston. Makes me wonder how far off I've been in the other infoboxes... Catfish Jim   &#38; the soapdish  16:16, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:

 * Submission of inappropriate material may lead to its removal

File:Parkhead Station.jpg needs authorship information
Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:Parkhead Station.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).


 * If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: will produce an appropriate expansion, or use the own template.


 * If this is an old image, for which the authorship is unknown or impossible to determine, please indicate this on the file description page.

If you have any questions please see Help:File page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:41, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Parkhead Station.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Parkhead Station.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:22, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Better source request for File:Abraham Patras (2).jpg
Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia: You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

File source problem with File:Dalbeth House.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Dalbeth House.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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.
