Re:Questions

Hi Coupdegra.. Well, here are the answers:

  • You indent using a colon. And further indent using two colons and so on. See this page for more details.
  • Google takes about 3-4 days to search and store new articles. Its faster than the Wikipedia search but still not immediate.

Let me know if you have more questions. Cheers -- Lost(talk) 16:08, 9 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for Image:Rio Negro Riverboat-2006.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Rio Negro Riverboat-2006.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. 19:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Frederic Defrouville

edit

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Frederic Defrouville, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Please don't sign articles

edit

Hi - thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Just wanted to point out a minor point: it's not appropriate to sign articles (as opposed to comments on talk pages). See Wikipedia:Ownership_of_articles#Do_not_sign_what_you_do_not_own Thanks—greenrd 22:58, 13 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
