File source and copyright licensing problem with File:BS BRAND main.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:BS BRAND main.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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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:Non-free content, 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 files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 22:10, 4 January 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. The New Mikemoral ♪♫ 22:10, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:BS BRAND main.pdf

Thanks for uploading File:BS BRAND main.pdf. 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, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. 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 per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:15, 4 January 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. The New Mikemoral ♪♫ 22:15, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Bolton School

I have removed a lot of the puff and promotional waffle from this article which frankly was begining to read like a school brochure! I have bookmarked the page so I can keep an eye on it! Brookie :) { - he's in the building somewhere!} ^(Whisper...) 13:54, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

Possible problem

Your post here indicates that you should avoid editing the article Bolton School due to your close association with that organization. If you should have notable content that can be verified through independent, secondary sources please post a request on the article talk page. You may find more detailed information by reading Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. Tiderolls 11:31, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

Bolton School

I am sure that Angus Diggle is not the most impressive of alumni for the school to have on its rolls - but don't remove him to put a spin on the article (as head of marketing there!) - he is an unfortunate part of the school's history, but part of it nonetheless! I have therefore replaced him amongst his compatriots! Brookie :) { - he's in the building somewhere!} ^(Whisper...) 15:07, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:24, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
