You appear to have a problem with my contributions. Why?

Frankly I think you are exhibiting all the worst charisteristics of petty officialdom in your response to my contribution. What qualifications do you have for keeping the purity of Wikipedia? Who appointed you as gatekeeper? I suspect that you must have very little to do in your life, if you fill it with attempts to police the efforts of others.

If you are able to illustrate the beaches, towns, villages and sights of West Wales on Wikipedia then I suggest you do so. If you can't, then let me and the others who do contribute photos get on with it. If you have better photos to contribute, then by all means do so. In this case Penbryn was not illustrated, so I uploaded one of my own photographs from my hard disc to do so. I own the copyright which means, obviously surprisingly to you, that I can and (& do) sell these photographs to some of my clients.

In the last week I have taken nearly 2000 photographs of subjects such as the Vintage Show at Croesllan, the Newport Transporter Bridge, the Roman Museum at Caerleon, Castle Coch, St Fagans, the Norwegian Church on Cardiff Bay. I do not sell them to the general public, but use them on websites that I work on (I contribute to nearly 20 Travel web sites) If I choose to donate a few photographs to Wikipedia, that is my business and I suggest you simply retire from your role of self-appointed "Policeman" and do something worthwhile with your time.

Yes, I am exceedingly annoyed by your attitude and at the very least, feel I am owed an apology for your deletion of the article that I wrote and the questioning of my motives on this page.
