National Union of Mineworkers
You reverted my edit of the National Union of Mineworkers article - I changed "the collapse of the British coal mining industry" to "the destruction of...", which you said was "provocative". It's not a matter of provocation but of accuracy. "Collapse" implies that it happened spontaneously, which is not the case - the closing of most of Britain's mines was a deliberate policy decision by the government. There's nothing "provocative" about the article acknowledging that fact - many would argue that it was a good and necessary decision, others that it was a bad decision, but what matters to Wikipedia is that it was a decision.

Orphaned non-free image File:Spyderlogo.gif
 Thanks for uploading File:Spyderlogo.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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk ) 04:14, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Sandyacht championships 2007.JPG
Thank you for uploading File:Sandyacht championships 2007.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation.  F ASTILYsock (T ALK ) 21:31, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 8
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Quinton, Birmingham, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Portmanteu (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
