Welcome!

Hello, Mouswj, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Again, welcome!

On a more personal note, good job on the Diocese of Niagara article. I "wikified" it a bit - involving mostly uniform formatting and linking to other pages. As an internet encyclopedia, Wikipedia is able to take advantage of hyperlinks, and easily link related topics.

I also noticed your edit to the Fonthill article, and just wanted to drop a hint. You have added links to [[St. Catharines]] and [[Niagara Falls, Ontario|Niagara Falls]]. However, if you look closer, both cities are already linked earlier on in the article. The Manual of Style says it's a bad thing if

a link is repeated in the same article (although there may be case for duplicating an important link that is distant from the previous occurrence)

Since the article is rather short and fits on one screen as it is, I feel that the double link is not warrantied. Also, this is more of a personal preference for me, but although [[St. Catharines]] ends up redirecting to St. Catharines, Ontario anyway, I prefer to link directly to the desired article. Among other things, this reduces server load. Since the Ontario part is unsightly, you can pipe the link like you did with the Niagara Falls one.

Thanks, and enjoy editing! --Qviri (talk) 14:47, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Diocese of Niagara[edit]

If you have other ideas of how to approach it, by all means let me know. But we have to put it in the article. It was real news. Carolynparrishfan 15:39, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image source problem with Image:Peers.jpg[edit]

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Peers.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 16:12, 23 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. YUL89YYZ 16:12, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
