Incorrect information on Timothy Stamps

Hi Mangwanani, I'd like to discuss some points in the "Timothy Stamps" Wiki with you. There are a few incorrect "facts". These are some of the items:
1. Dr Stamps was born in London, raised in Wales.
2. Minister of H&W from 1990, not 1986.
3. Arrived in Rhodesia in 1968, not 1962.
4. He was on the city council from 1979 to 1990.
This information is from Dr Stamps himself and I am yet to source references. I was hoping you would help with this as, for one, im new to Wikipedia editing ;)
I also have some other information that might be useful? I should point out that I might be considered as one who is "biased" because of my relation to "the subject". Im sorry for the very late input.

• • Thanks, I'll have a look at the article and make the appropriate ammendments. If you would like to post any more information to User:Mangwanani/Timothy Stamps I'll see how to best work it into the article. Mangwanani ^(talk) 18:08, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Wolfgang Nastainczyk

The article Wolfgang Nastainczyk has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Mhiji (talk) 02:49, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

April 2011

I reverted your edits to Bernard Longley because the parameters given didn't match the infobox template you were trying to use, hence most of the parameters were being ignored. - David Biddulph (talk) 22:24, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

I was about to change the infobox to conform with many of the other bishop infoboxes in use as they give more information than the old bishop ones but my battery died. Will work on it tomorrow. Mangwanani ^(talk) 22:37, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Using a live template as a sandbox

Please don't use Template:Infobox Christian leader as a sandbox. We have a Template:Infobox Christian leader/sandbox for experimentation. Thank you. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 15:50, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

Since you didn't get the message, I have reverted your most recent malformed edits, and fully protected the template. Please discuss your plans on the talk page, gain consensus, then implement. It is clear that you don't understand how the template actually works. For example, adding an image to the caption section is not what you want here. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 19:15, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

FYI, this is closer to what you actually want. In case you are wondering, here are the reasons why your version didn't work: (1) This parameters you added are being passed to {{infobox}}, which has a |image2=, but no |CoA=, hence the parameters you added were being ignored, (2) there was no need to create a {{CoA}} template. The {{Image}} template was doing exactly what you want, namely, stripping off the leading "File" or "Image" from the image. I would argue that we don't even need the {{image}} template, since most templates don't use it. Editors are smart enough to know that you shouldn't include the leading "File:" or "Image:" when it doesn't work out correctly. (3) the |imagesize= and |alt= were for the main image. There is no reason to use the same size or alternative text for both images. And, in fact, you realized this since you set the default to 150px, which is different from the main image. If you have any more questions, let me know. But, please refrain from name calling. It doesn't help. I will be more than happy to implement a working version of a coat of arms image to the infobox if there are no objections in the next couple days. By the way, my choice for |image_coa= rather than |CoA= is mostly due to field name conventions from other templates, and the general recent trend away from CaMeLcAsE. Thank you.

image for school-atlas

Dear Mangwanani,

we are a school-book publisher in Germany and right now preparing an atlas for High Schools. Here we would like to use the image of the city Fulda we have found on the following site: http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:Fulda_Panorama.jpg&filetimestamp=20100417203352

We guess you agree with this publication but ask you to please give us a short note back. The credit would be "Mangwanani" and the wikipedia-site.

Thank you very much and best regards
