Orphaned non-free image (File:Torchwood Children of Earth soundtrack cover.jpg)
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Torchwood Children of Earth soundtrack cover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 01:23, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Picture format
[edit]Re your edit on Garrow's Law. Surely the information required is if the picture is 4:3 standard, 16:9 widescreen or 4:3 pan and scan. 1089p (progressive) as opposed to interlaced is a transmission system and not a program format. Sky in the uk do not use it. They use 720. Televisions that are described as Full HD ie 1080 merely upscale. When watching old programs such as The Saint they should appear with two vertical black lines either side on a widescreen TV. Sky sports news is broadcast as 4:3 on sky and freeview and if the TV has automatic adjustment set it should appear with the vertical black lines unless set to zoom when it will crop the top and bottom. It is the best channel to check if your TV is set to the correct ratio (format). Also re the viewing figures, if you look at the old history I did provide a column in the episode list but another editor likes them seperate and took them out.REVUpminster (talk) 00:23, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
- My real point is that 1080p or i is a transmision system not used in America (according to the wiki page) or here because of the bandwidth required. Blueray DVD are the only compatible system where no upscaling is involved. I do a lot of episode guides and most are 35mm film and in 4/3 colour or black and white (no upscaling required) so I think it is more important with the vast number of TV programmes on the wikineeds for the ratio to be shown. Looking at the end credits there is a director of photography so is it still on film or a digital medium. It is certainly edited like a film. Series like Midsomer Murders were made on super 16mm film. REVUpminster (talk) 16:36, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 14
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Stargazing Live, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Aliens (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.
