Hello John2429! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. If you decide that you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

[edit] License tagging for Image:WICR.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:WICR.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 17:10, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please don't remove comments from talk pages, unless they're you're own

I spotted a template saying you'd removed other people's comments from the Wikipedia:Village pump (miscellaneous)?

Hmm, don't do that. It's generally considered a bit rude. :-) --Kim Bruning 23:23, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I didn't realize at the time, and thought I could remove a rude/obnoxious comment from my request for interview subjects. So what's wrong with template warnings?--John2429 05:48, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Final report

Hello, when you finish your final report, might we be allowed to have some sort of copy to read? --Kim Bruning 23:26, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I should be able to post a copy here. I will also being sharing with the Wikipedia research mailing list, Wiki-research-l. --John2429 04:36, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
