Fair use rationale for File:Freda Du Faur 01.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Freda Du Faur 01.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 20:21, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to South Western Main Line, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses novel, unpublished syntheses of previously published material. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. --Redrose64 (talk) 12:44, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article Frederick Samson R. M. Fox 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. Mo ainm~Talk 17:47, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Robert Harrild article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribute Share-Alike."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the "Help Desk". You can also leave a message on my talk page. Lagrange613 16:49, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Maggie Bird (curator) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Maggie Bird (curator) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. JoelWhy (talk) 12:03, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Archibald Montgomerie, 13th Earl of Eglinton, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Winton (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Badbury Rings, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Bath and Archaeological Institute (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Norman Josiffe and Terry-Thomas

Okay, so you think that the reference from a national daily that says that NJ's wife was TT's sister is incorrect. What are your grounds for this? Or are you the anon on the Talk page? Deb (talk) 13:08, 6 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, yes, they have got it wrong. The DNB (Dictionary of National Biography) http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/10.1093/ref:odnb/9780198614128.001.0001/odnb-9780198614128-e-39948?rskey=Syrto8&result=1 correctly shows that nTerry Thomas was married to a Belinda Cunningham, whilst Scott was married to a lady named Myers. They were not sisters. The error comes from the book 'A Very English Scsandal' which erroneously showed Belinda to be 'Sue' Meyrs's sister.
