License tagging for Image:LakelandCC.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:LakelandCC.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 21:09, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia, as you did in London Heathrow Airport. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links as long as the content abides by our policies and guidelines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. -- Longhair 13:40, 12 September 2006 (UTC) Dear Longhair.

The site I added to the external links is not my site. I do not even know the people who own the site. I just had a fantastic experience with the company in question and thoguht other visitors to London could benefit from such a great service.

I read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:EL and only point 4 of Links to be avoided could be in violation. Yes it is promoting a site (but all links do) but the site provides a service, no? I liked them - all I can say really...

but on the basis that wiki is not a directory then favourite links have no place. Wiki is an encyclopedia and links should be information based. Clearly the link is inappropriate. Thundernlightning 11:28, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Lakeland Cycle Club
Thank you for contributing the above article; however I am concerned that the club is not sufficiently notable to be included in Wikipedia. Are you aware of any material (e.g. newspaper articles, media coverage) that would help establish the club's notability? Remember, references need to be both independent and non-trivial, as well as being from a reliable source. Newspaper articles or other media reports would be ideal. Thanks!

Demiurge - please put back the page! The club is a non-profit community organization wanting to promote cycling and fund raising for local and regional charities!!!
