This is just a little note to let you know the above issue is being looked into, an OTRS has been submitted for the article in question. As I notice you have been doing a lot with images and their associated text from the geograph.org.uk website one of the issues is clarifying their license terms. Also I wanted to point out that, per the terms of the CCL being used on the images, a credit (Attribution) is required with the image wherever it appears. This means when an image is used in an article a credit for the image must appear with that image if the photographer (author) has so requested it. In the case of the Ashley Dace images you are using it is required. Likewise if the descriptive text from the image is also used in an article credit (attribution) must be given as well however the text issue is what is being looked at currently, once that is cleared up hopefully someone will let you know here. Thanks. Soundvisions1 (talk) 23:16, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Normal fault image

Thanks a lot for adding the image from Blue Anchor Bay, I've been waiting for a good fault image to come along (my own image was better than nothing, but the new one is a real improvement). There seems to be a problem in the file description part of the image file - I'll see if I can fix it, but don't hold your breath, Thanks again, Cheers, Mikenorton (talk) 18:35, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
