Fair use rationale for Image:Quebec Congress Badge.gif
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Quebec Congress Badge.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. PxMa 01:07, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

I see that you prodded this article. I would feel better if it was discussed at AfD. I'm leaning towards giving him the boot, but I have heard of this fellow in various heraldic contexts outside of Wikipedia. What say you?--Eva bd 20:18, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- If you feel that AfD is more appropriate, I have no objections to your replacing my prod. Precious Roy 20:30, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
Bubblenetting Photo
[edit]Hi Eva,
If you think the edits I did improved the pic I'm happy enough to download the 'big one' and work on that, and I'll drop the filesize myself before reuploading (I'm unfortunately only on dial-up, so downloading 12MB takes over half-an-hour, which was my grumble).
If you think you can get a better scan, then I'll wait for that. If you think the edits are spoiling it then I'll leave it alone ;).
Having thought a bit more about it, I would be willing to nominate on FPC for you, or support if you do the nomination. Sounds like Enuja would also support. Not sure it would get through, but I think it's worth giving a shot.
--jjron 03:45, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- OK, I've downloaded your second (smaller) version. I'll see what I can do, and leave you a note when I reupload. BTW, do you want me to nominate at FPC, or do want to do it? (I don't mind, but because I'm a regular voter I tend to get a few 'payback' opposes from the odd user on my pictures. That may not be the case here though, since I'm not the actual creator.) --jjron 08:33, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Uploaded my edit here. It was actually a lot dirtier than I realised, having only looked at the smaller sized versions I hadn't seen all that. I ended up doing a lot cleaning up, and did a substantial noise reduction on it as well.
- A shame it wasn't a digital original; with my own scans I find they lose some vibrancy and quality, even when scanned off the negative; presumably a really good scanner may overcome that. I tried to make it a bit more vibrant, but was restricted by the dirt and noise, and the bright whites in the water and on the seagull. I also cropped a little tighter than in my original edit in order to try to get the seagull nearer the edge to help with framing. I really like the seagull being there, and think maybe you could mention that somewhere; presumably it's trying to scavenge in some way.
- Well, hope you think it's come up OK. I still have a pre-noise reduction version as well, but it is pretty noisy, and suspect it may get hammered for that. I'll leave it to you to nominate, as requested. Can I just suggest you take care with how you word the '15 whales' part, as someone will undoubtedly bring up the issue that they can't see 15 whales. Good luck; don't be too disappointed if it doesn't get through, and remember some voters can be rather harsh so don't take it personally. Still it can be interesting to see what people have to say about various photos. --jjron 07:55, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

I think you are wrong to remove the Clackson quote, and indeed to have voted to delete the article about him. You will note that in the online reference I have, it was someone else quoting him (the editor of the "Baronage Press"). If you were familiar with the Scottish heraldry scene you would be aware of his notoriety. Wikipedia is an on-line encyclopadia and I would have expected it to have higher regard for on-line sources. Incidentally, I am sorry if I inadvertantly removed some other part of your edit. It was unintentional. Ednan 23:43, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
- Incidentally, have you heard of Anthony Maxwell? He is another "celebrity" of the Scottish heraldry scene who I feel deserves mention on Wikipedia. However, dare I, in the current climate? Ednan 23:58, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Re Replies If it really were about consenus, I might agree with you, but whether or not an article is deleted seems to depend more on the personal opinion of the closing admin. The number of deletes vs. keeps were pretty close, and notably the keeps mostly came with grounds for that opinion while many of the deletes were posted with little or no explanation. The article had no chance for improvement, it was simply wiped away. This is the "climate" I am talking about. Much as I would like to contribute an article about Anthony Maxwell, I reckon I would just be wasting my time doing so. Ednan 13:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Incidentally, what would you regard as "notable". Aren't contemporary heraldry figures notable? Ednan 13:34, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm not aware of any statement about the new M.St.J. (though I've heard about it.) Could you post me a link if you have?
So far, Singapore (where I reside) and Malaysia still use S.B.St.J. and S.S.St.J.

This old (1940) film happened to be on TV this afternoon and, with nothing better to do, I watched it. It's largely set in Philadelphia. A couple of times the heroine's elderly father mentions that he used to teach cricket, which caught my interest. I don't suppose that there can be many American films that mention the game.

London Gazette etc
[edit]Hi Eva, I'm basically working my way through this list of articles to fix the references - so I should be at Guy Sainty fairly shortly, Tony DeSantis will take a little longer. As you've probably seen the basic idea is to find the parameter values needed to fill out {{LondonGazette}}, most importantly, issue number, start page, date of publication of the (original) issue, if it's a supplement, and the date you checked the reference.
The easiest way to proceed is usually to find the issue number in the old url, for example in the first reference on the DeSantis page you will see in the old url, &issueNumber=48456. As you might guess, 48456 is the issue number. Copy this to the clipboard on your computer. Next, go to http://www.gazettes-online.co.uk/AdvancedSearch.aspx?geotype=London&sb=issue which allows you to search by issue on the Gazettes, paste the issue number into the appropriate field, and type the surname of the person you're interested into one of the fields in the "Words" section lower down the search page (for this type of search it shouldn't really matter which one you use). Hit search, and it should come back with one or more results (with the two names you've asked about in particular, I wouldn't imagine you'll get more than one). You can actually get all the parameters needed from the search results page usually, but it's worth actually looking at the the Gazette itself, to double-check you've found what you were looking for, for DeSantis, the first one is http://www.gazettes-online.co.uk/ViewPDF.aspx?pdf=48456&geotype=London&gpn=17523&type=ArchivedIssuePage&all=DeSantis&exact=&atleast=&similar=. You then need to check for the page number in the url (and printed on the page), not where it says in the navigation "Page 3 of 108" (or whatever), so in this case, 17523 (numbering starts again each year, but otherwise generally runs on from one issue to the next). You'll usually want to enter this as the startpage parameter in the template, but in this particular case, it's not immediately obvious from this page that this does actually refer to the Order of St John, so if we use the navigation to step back a page [1], we see the beginning of the notice, so it might be better to enter 17522 for startpage, and 17523 as endpage. Finally you'll need the date - just copy this from the navigation section of the page and enter it as the date parameter - you can link it as normal so that users' date preference work. Finally, it's good practice to enter the accessdate parameter, which needs to be done as yyyy-mm-dd (or there are separate parameters to enter, day month and year separately if you prefer.
The last coupl eof things you need to check are the "type" parameter of the Gazette url, if you see "&type=ArchivedIssuePage" as the examples I've given here, you don't need to add anything else to the template. However, if it says ArchivedSupplementPage you need to add (e.g.) supp=yes (it doesn't actually matter what you put after the equals sign in fact, so long as there's something), if it jsut says IssuePage, you'll need to enter notarchive=yes (again the precise text after the equals doesn't matter), and if it says SupplementPage, you need to do both. It seems to be issues/supplements within about eh last 4 years which haven't been archived yet.
Lastly, if you could strike through any you update on the list I linked to above, it will save me checking the page myself. Hope this makes sense - if you work throug it a step at a time, you'll soon get used to it. I'll add both pages to my watchlist, and check the results if you want to have a go yourself.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Magic Bicycle 2.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Magic Bicycle 2.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 17:45, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Orders, decorations, and medals of Canada
[edit]How can the Canadian Priory have a completely different structure than other priories, such as the USA?
- If you take a look at Venerable_Order_of_Saint_John#The_Order_in_the_United_Kingdom, you will see the order have 6 grades. With the exception of Esq that is not used in Canada, Queen Elizabeth II can appoint anyone(citizen or PR of Canada) to any grade of the order.[1] The reason that we don't have Bailiff or Dame Grand Cross is because the Governor General and Lieutenant-governors are only appointed to Knights or Dames of Justice and as the Chancellor of the order, thus no one can be appointed a level beyond what the GG/LGs have even though theoretically it can be done on the advice of the GG.

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

Copyediting request
[edit]
On 9 February 2007, you made a request to the League of Copyeditors for a copyedit on Bart King. Because of a heavy backlog and a shortage of copyeditors, we have been unable to act on your request in a timely manner, for which we apologize. Since your request, this article may have been subject to significant editing and may no longer be a good candidate for copyediting by the League. If you still wish the League to copyedit this article, please review this article against our new criteria and follow the instructions on the Requests page. This will include your request in our new system, where it should receive more prompt attention. Finetooth (talk) 00:08, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Delhi and Mowbray Heralds Extraordinary...
[edit]Hello Evadb—just a note to thank you for improving the pages I created yesterday. Best wishes, talkGiler 09:53, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
- Nice work on finding the photographs of Peyton and Mohammed Umar Hayat Khan from the 1911 Durbar, Eva. When you have the scan(s) uploaded, I'd be pleased to see one at the biography for Peyton, but no doubt one of them would be even more suitable for the Delhi Herald and Delhi Durbar articles. I might also start a short article for Khan, whose son already has one. Regards, Xn4 19:33, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
The images are now uploaded. Not sure where to put Barnes?--Eva bd 00:10, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
- I've now started Malik Umar Hayat Khan. Your pictures at William Peyton and Delhi Durbar are excellent, I've added one to the Khan biography. Xn4 03:58, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
- On Barnes, I've begun an article for him, too, please see Osmond Barnes. Xn4 16:10, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:James_Moneith_Grant.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:James_Moneith_Grant.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 17:35, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
