Advice

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Benjamin Hick and Sons, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thank you. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:42, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Problems with upload of File:Ferr deptford alt.gif

Thanks for uploading File:Ferr deptford alt.gif. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or provided a license tag. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, select the appropriate license tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you can't find a suitable license tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 21:06, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Gardner Logo.gif

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Gardner Logo.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 05:08, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Keep moving forward

Its great to see you taking so much loving tender care on these historically important firms. --ClemRutter (talk) 19:32, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. The improvements are very welcome, although Seddon Atkinson is now crying out more than ever for a split into three articles! (That will keep you busy for a bit. :o) )

As you are fairly new here, please watch out that you don't accidentally remove existing 'standard formatting'. For example, in John Musgrave & Sons I have restored the Infobox. Also, I note that you have added {{TOCleft}} in several places. I used to do this when I started editing here, but the preferred approach is to let the TOC position itself. When considering article layout, it is worth remembering that the user may make the browser page narrower than 'standard', change the font size, use a wide-screen monitor, or change the default size for images. All of these play havoc with any careful layout applied by editors -- so most editors just let the browser do the layout and concentrate on the typing instead.

Cheers - EdJogg (talk) 14:05, 9 December 2010 (UTC) -- just got the heading joke Clem, very good!

Hi, I just wanted to agree with Clem Rutter, and say I've added some Greater Manchester Project Banners to the talk pages of your articles. It is great to see someone taking an interest in the industrial history, I'm having a go at coal mines, very slowly though.--J3Mrs (talk) 21:47, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Ryder Forging Machine at Wilkinson Sward.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Ryder Forging Machine at Wilkinson Sward.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 Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 19:06, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps you should simply delete any graphics that you don't like.Weiterbewegung (talk) 11:36, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

The message above was posted automatically by a bot: it won't notice that you have replied (nor will it care). It's not a case of the bot "liking" or "disliking" the graphics; the bot merely checks to see if the graphic file's associated description page carries certain essential information or not; and if not, it issues a message like the one above, and also marks the description page to show that it doesn't meet relevant policies.

The thing to do is to fix the image description page so that it carries the appropriate licensing information, as per the notice above. There are also various help pages and policy pages on images, but in particular, see Wikipedia:Image use policy#Requirements. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:19, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
