Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Still Open All Hours, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Telegraph (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your upload of File:CapeMillReservoir2007.JPG or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

It wasn't actually a threat so much as a statement: you are into the bright line "you cannot do that" territory. You cannot take every word from a web page and place it in a Wikipedia article, not as referenced text or as a quote. As referenced text, it's plagiarism, because you are quoting verbatim and then indicating that you wrote something yourself based on that as input. As a direct quote, it's a copyright violation, because it isn't a small sample of the work: it is the work.

As to how to get around it? Omitting the plot section entirely is fine. You don't actually know the plot, and the description you had was a teaser, not a plot.—Kww(talk) 15:52, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of List of mills in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://us.wow.com/wiki/List_of_mills_in_Oldham.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Changing listed locations to Manchester. - Why? --ClemRutter (talk) 00:35, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It was a self correction. When I originally set them to street names it created redlinks to categories at the bottom of the page for listed buildings in those streets. I changed it to area names, same problem. I settled on Manchester as there already seems to be a categories established for Listed buildings in Manchester so it didn't result in redlinks. ~~ Peteb16 (talk)

Your last edit summary had be worried! Then I read it again- and saw you said lbe template- and I had read it as the template. So I have gone into {{TMtr/doc}} and fixed the text, and fixed the examples. Well spotted.--ClemRutter (talk) 16:20, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Clem, I'm not the greatest at explaining myself. Thanks for updating the documentation. In the mean time I found the doc for the lbe template, I'd completely misunderstood what the display field was for. My intent was to influence how it appeared in the category, so instead of using the article name i.e. "List of Mills in ..." it could actually add the mill name to the category but still link it to the list. Is this possible in template coding terms and are you able to do it? Or am I missing another way around this? ~~ Peteb16 (talk) 19:19, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:TOTP2-2006.JPG. However, there is a concern that the use of the image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. Details of this problem, and which specific criteria that the image may not meet, can be obtained by going to the image description page. If you feel that this image does meet those criteria, please place a note on the image description or talk page explaining why. Do not remove the {{di-fails NFCC}} tag itself.

An administrator will review this file within a few days, and having considered the opinions placed on the image page, may delete it in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion or remove the tag entirely. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 00:08, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed you were the first person to add the logo image to the TOTP Reloaded article and it says it came from a recording of the first episode.

I help run a TOTP fansite and well, we missed the Saturday spin-offs the first time around. I wanted to add the performances, interviews, segments of the shows to our database, but there is no way to find episodes of the show(s) anywhere. --TIGHazard (talk) 10:51, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- I'm just responding to this in case you missed it the first time around TIGHazard (talk) 08:53, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, I was just uncertain how to respond. Do you need my help? ~~ Peteb16 (talk) 10:24, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you're the only person I can find who at least captured some footage of the show (even if what you recorded was just the intro). Everyone else I've talked to who remembers it never recorded it so it's difficult to work out who was on each show, the running order, etc. I was wondering if you still have any footage? TIGHazard (talk) 15:18, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have all the episodes, I'm just not sure how I'd get them to you. At the moment my time is limited (hence the slow responses). So cataloguing their content myself would take a while. ~~ Peteb16 (talk) 20:44, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm willing to catalogue them myself. If you want to contact me, here's my YouTube channel. Don't contact via the 'if you're a dev' email, use the one in the details 'for business enquiries' section as that's the one I have notifications for. Obviously if you do e-mail me I'll edit this post to remove the link afterwards. TIGHazard (talk) 14:49, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Crealy Theme Park & Resort into Camel Creek Adventure Park. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 14:59, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
