Criminalization[edit]

You're going to need sources to support your new addition to criminalization. These topics can be highly speculative if not heavily traced to reliable sources. If it is the fruit of your own original thinking, an encyclopedia may not be the ideal forum. JFW | T@lk 11:57, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the encouragement and making the good point about sources. I have added citations to, I think, just about every point in the section, with the unfortunate fact that I don't have my Aristotle collection at my present location. I hope to add those exact references when I am with them once again. James Seneca 12:49, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Empty Pages & Overlinking[edit]

Please review our help and tutorial pages as listed in the welcome notice above. You recent contributions, while appreciated, are not in keeping with our standard practices. Please do not create pages that consist only of headings or a restatement of the title. They will be speedy deleted as {{db-empty}} pages. At a minimum, you need to create a stub article. Also, please ensure your content meets our criteria for inclusion.

Also, please don't over link & ensure the links you add go to the page you expect. A few of your recent links have been to very minor terms and have resulted in links to pages that do not actually describe the term (ex. generally).

Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 15:09, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the clarification, LaTondre. Sorry if I caused any head aches. James Seneca 01:52, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You![edit]

Thank you very much for tidying up my Taylor Caldwell page, I'm very grateful and it looks much better. I wonder if you could help me with all the furore I've had about trying to put a picture of Taylor Caldwell on this page. The picture I want to use is here - http://www.doubledarepress.com/2002/02/columns/dead-people.shtml - I wrote to the author of the accompanying piece and to the website owners, and they gave me permission to use this picture (which is all over the web anyway, on lots of sites). I tried to load the picture into my article and also into the Commons, but all I got was a lot of finger-wagging and NO practical help. All I want to know is how can I use this picture without upsetting all the Wiki-admin? (I don't understand all the funny terms like GFDL etc., I just want to know how to do it!) I've also had similar problems with a picture for my Jess Stearn article. I would be SO grateful for a light at the end of this particularly long and tedious tunnel - in fact this is the last time I'm going to ask (will give up on this if I can't get any joy), so thanks very much in advance!

Thank you again!! Mainly for adding an image, which I've been trying to do for forever (don't know how you did it - black magic?!) Thanks for all your work on this article, it looks much better now. Jaycey 12:26, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Municipal law[edit]

You wrote an interesting section (Early modern English versus American views) for the article Municipal law, but you did not cite your sources. Please could you do so? --Philip Baird Shearer 21:30, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Philip - I thought by including references to the original texts I had adequately cited. I made use of no other authorities. Can you elaborate on what needs additional citation? Thanks. James Seneca 00:09, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
