on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! · rodii · 22:01, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Utilize, organize, et al.
[edit]Please don't make wholesale changes from Commonwealth to American spellings or vice versa. See the Manual of style on this: "If an article is predominantly written in one type of English, aim to conform to that type rather than provoking conflict by changing to another." I'm an American and I prefer the -ize spelling too, but Wikipedia is an international resource, and "corrections" like this just provoke people. Thanks. · rodii · 22:01, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:ChicagoChinatown-NineDragonWall.JPG]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 20:01, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
