Toll road image request
[edit]Hi There, just a quick note to say that some medieval tollgate images have been added to the toll road page, as per your request. These show a tollgate dating from 1789 in the Dulwich area of South London - however what might surprise you is that despite it now being 218 years later this tollgate is still in use, charging approximately 1 US dollar to pass.

Gary McKinnon
[edit]I don't think your latest edit to the Gary McKinnon holds up to Wikipedia's requirements, specifically using only reliable sources. Also, an initiative from an individual which has not garnered any notable media attention is in itself probably not applicable in a Wikipedia article. __meco (talk) 08:57, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
December 2009
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Airtrans APM has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rh53ke7bIjw (matching the regex rule \byoutube\.com). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 10:39, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
Routemaster Bus
[edit]"The image taken in 1949 showing a bus in Sloane Street Knightsbridge references the bus as a Routemaster. This is impossible, as the first Routemaster bus was built in 1954! See here: 1 The buses might be RT's (Regent Three's) but I am not 100% sure. This link leads to the image I am referencing: 2 Spsmiler"
Hi, Thanks for your comment. When I uploaded the photo it did not contain any detailed description. Later, someone moved the photo to the Commons, and may have also added the detailed description. It's certainly possible that they got the Bus description wrong. --F64too (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 04:18, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Spsmiler. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Spsmiler~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Renamed
[edit]This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
