Memphis photo hurricane Elvis

[edit]

Hello,

I was looking at the wiki article on hurricane Elvis and seen the picture that you took. I am writing a book for Amateur Radio operators that are volunteer storm spotters. The book, which is due out next year, will be called The ARRL Storm Spotter's Handbook. I am looking for original, weather related photos. Could I use your hurricane Elvis picture?

Thanks,

Hi, thanks for your request. File:Gibson Factory 030722.jpg is licensed under a Creative Commons License. You can read the full terms of the license here -- but basically what it says is that you are free to use this image so long as I am attributed as the photographer. This could either appear in the caption for the photograph, or in an acknowledgements section of the book. If you are unable to use the image within the terms of this license then I would be happy to discuss alternative terms with you. Banjoman1 00:38, 18 July 2009 (UTC) [edit][reply]

Politicians altering their Wikipedia articles

[edit]

I saw your edits to Angela Christine Smith. Have a look at Gillian Merron and edits by Tomfromlincoln. It seems almost as though they are gearing up for an election and trying to wipe out references to their "negative" sides. Let me make it very clear, I am not political and couldn't really care for any of them as I feel they're all the same. But the Wikipedia must be neutral, giving, yes their good points in their career, but also pointing out their bad. All with references I must quickly add. I feel there is such a campaign going on to alter the Wiki pages of politicians that there should be a Wiki task force to just monitor politicians pages.--BSTemple(talk) 18:15, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your reply. I'm a Member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography, so I will look into that line. I'm just trying to keep a balanced neutral view on the Wikipedia. If I can help you at any time, just let me know. Cheers.--BSTemple(talk) 08:09, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cut-and-paste moves

[edit]

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Ian Fleming International Airport a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. - BilCat (talk) 17:50, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
