License tagging for Image:SterkfonteinCaves1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:SterkfonteinCaves1.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 10:06, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Re: GTO123

I tried reporting GTO123 back in February, but nothing came of it. Feel free to make another report on WP:ANI since he obviously isn't learning from the warnings. swa q 18:34, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Max Bygraves

Please don't insert unsourced material into a Wikipedia article as you did in the Max Bygraves article. The material was removed for the very good reason that it was unsourced and had been tagged for 2 years as lacking sourcing. I reverted your edit. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:46, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, though I see a good bit of the material was actually sourced in the linked websites in the article. Claidheamhmor (talk) 06:45, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure which linked websites you mean. IMDb is not a reliable source. And his own website can only be used for limited things. See WP:BLPSPS.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:35, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Joy Ellis moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Joy Ellis, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

M.W. Craven moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, M.W. Craven, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. Currently it is entirely sourced with primary refs, which are not eligible to be used to show he meets notability criteria.

What you need are in-depth sourcing from independent, reliable sources. The CWA award, while nice, is not enough on its own to show notability.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

My edit on "Heidi"

I see belatedly that you reverted my edit concerning usage. "Racked with guilt" is truly the correct form. Of course it doesn't mean physically tortured; it uses the rack as a metaphor. "Wracked" means (and is a variant of) "wrecked." Please consult a usage manual, which will give a better explanation than most dictionaries. With several decades of experience editing books and other publications, I can be trusted on this one. Cognita (talk) 04:34, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that, I learnt something new. I see the two words can be used interchangeably (according to Oxford Online and many other sources), but "racked" is the earlier form, and more common. I grew up using "wracked", but will adjust my own usage accordingly.
