The image is from a postcard published by B. & A. Feilden (Blundellsands, Liverpool). A company that no longer exists. I've cropped and resampled the image. Paul.pjt28 (talk) 07:41, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

@Dr vulpes oldhamthomases.uk is my own website. I don't understand. Both the article and the website are written by me with no copyright material. 81.131.128.193 (talk) 07:09, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Hey @Paul.pjt28/@81.131.128.193, sorry these things happen. Check out this article about copying material into Wikipedia and the steps that you have to do. It's not a lot of work and is fairly straightforward. The problem here is that we don't know if it's your website and copyright laws are pretty strict. If you have other questions or need a hand feel free to ping me and I'll take a look or give you a hand. Your work is very well done and I look forward to seeing all the amazing contributions you'll make here! Dr vulpes (Talk) 07:16, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

It would be helpful if I remembered to add the link WP:MYTEXT. Dr vulpes (Talk) 07:17, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, I've been away on holiday and just returned to deal with this issue. Clearly, you do not want to publish my submission. I would point out that my own website (oldhamthomases.uk) is NOT a primary resource for the article. All primary resources are cited in the proposed article. As far as the contents of my website are concerned, this website deals with my family history (none of which is included in the article). Clearly, there is some overlap with the discussion of my great uncle's wartime service on HMS Salamander, but such overlap is very small. Indeed, the overlap seems to be restricted to just the last two paragraphs of my article on HMS Salamander. I could rewrite these paragraphs, but I suspect it would be a waste of my time. In the past, I have made financial contributions to Wikipedia, but because of this experience I probably will never do so again. Paul.pjt28 (talk) 12:49, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
