Thanks for your considered reply. Adding related external links that meet our policy in the way you describe is indeed useful and appreciated. I'm sure that you can understand that a user adding links to numerous articles to one site generates suspicions of promotional purposes but your explanation is satisfactory to me and the links I saw did indeed appear informative and valuable to readers. Kind regards, DoubleBlue (talk) 20:56, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

editHi there.

If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window.

File source problem with File:Brian budd.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Brian budd.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.
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 01:43, 27 April 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 01:43, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
