Various AEC contributions

[edit]

Hi. I notice you have started to write some much needed articles about the AEC range of buses. However, for some reason some of these have now been partially deleted. I'm not sure why this is, but it is a shame that your contibutions should be deleted. Some of the articles were attempting to attribute text and photos, which is something you can't really do in Wikipedia, and so those references got deleted. Also you need to be careful about copying from a source verbatim, but its OK to rewrite information from sources into your own words. It would be great if you could read through the Wikipedia policies that Eagle outlined above, and perhaps take a look at some other articles, and then come back and edit the articles. An opening paragraph with a brief outline that provides some context and an introduction for someone who knows little about the subject are important. Look forward to reading your future contributions (but expect them to edited mercilessly by many people!!). - RXUYDC 01:41, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Gbj192.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images.

If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Unspecified source for Image:KLB716.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:KLB716.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 03:27, 8 December 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 03:27, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
