The file has been deleted at Wikimedia Commons as a copyright infringement. There is nothing that can be done about that here on English Wikipedia, but if you believe that the deletion was a mistake, you can request restoration of the file on Commons, as explained at commons::Commons:Undeletion requests, but I suggest that before considering doing so you should first consult the Commons administrator who deleted the file, at commons:User talk:Ellin Beltz.

Thanks Chris. [re: John Boyd (Milliner)] Please see below

1. "At the calendar launch the collection was auctioned for charity and later the owners gifted these unique works to the V&A museum." [citation needed]

Here is the citation for the above: http://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O141947/the-pirelli-calendar-1985-hat-boyd-john/

2. "hosted by Peter Lewis-Crown in aid of The National Lobster Hatchery." Peter has been awarded an OBE. Should read Peter Lewis-Crown OBE (Peter fought hand and foot for his OBE and would be devistated!)

3. I think the quote from John Boyd below should be included as it is very important to the resurgence of millinery in the 1980s: “Mothers would drag in their daughters with long faces shouting ‘God, you’ll look a scream in that!” Then suddenly they all loved it. Diana was our best ambassador for hats and the entire millinery industry owes her a great debt.” John Boyd

Your draft article, Draft:Glen Art

Hello, Indigojones666. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Glen Art".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:Glen Art}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 13:41, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi - I notice you have twice added embedded citations to the article on David Shaw contrary to WP:ECITE which states that the use of embedded links for inline citations is deprecated. Dormskirk (talk) 15:20, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi - You should also read WP:CITE which says that "embedded links should never be used to place external links in the content of an article, like this: "Apple, Inc. announced their latest product...". Dormskirk (talk) 15:24, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited David Shaw (British Army officer), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Newcastle. 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.

John Boyd

john boyd died Tuesday 19th feb as can be seen here: https://royalcircular.com/2018/02/22/john-boyd-royal-hat-maker-dies/

That's a blog; it fails WP:SPS. Chris Troutman (talk) 12:58, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

poor reference

You have mentioned i have poorly referenced sources (john boyd milliner) - could you please point these out as I wish to offer the best edits possible

Please read WP:RS and WP:42, as well as WP:CITE. Adding content to Wikipedia comes with the responsibility of providing reliable sources to support those claims, as WP:V requires. Chris Troutman (talk) 12:59, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Court - Royal Circular 

The blog regarding John Boyd death (https://royalcircular.com/2018/02/22/john-boyd-royal-hat-maker-dies/) comes from the royal circular which is the official record that lists the engagements carried out by the Monarch of the United Kingdom and the other Commonwealth realms. This is a very respected outlet in the UK and common wealth and the author of this particular news article is much respected. [Several newspapers, magazines, and other news organizations host columns on their web sites that they call blogs. These may be acceptable sources if the writers are professionals]

I think you're getting royalcircular.com confused with Court Circular, which does the things you mention. The latter is a believable source; the former is "powered by WordPress." Chris Troutman (talk) 13:17, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

I just spoke to his assistant Sarah Marshall and she has confirmed his death as reported by royalcircular.com

Add to your list of reading WP:TRUTH. I don't care if he actually is dead. Wikipedia needs a reliable source before we claim somebody is dead. If Boyd was all that famous, there will be an obituary published in the newspapers. Chris Troutman (talk) 13:23, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Could you review this while you are here?... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:BRAVEHOUND Its been months!

It is good you are so circumspect. My wife's father Dave Swarbrick was reported dead in the daily Telegraph a few years ago when he was still alive; when he read his own obituary he had a stroke! He is really dead now so it is ok

As far as your draft goes, actually I can't hep you. I used to review drafts but was forced to quit because I tended to stomp on new editors. Months ago I gave up my ability to review drafts. I understand your frustration, though. It's not fun work for the volunteers and many editors get upset when we refuse drafts, which kind of puts us off the task. Sorry. As for people being dead, Rudy Boesch has been declared dead nine times in the past two years. It's true he's old but I have yet to see a newspaper confirming it. The moment I see an obit for Boyd, we'll fix the article, accordingly. Chris Troutman (talk) 16:19, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

You - stomping on new editors - I don't believe it! What gets me is articles like this -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Pigalle - with no references are still up?

You're welcome to nominate it for deletion. Just be careful if you look too eager. Editors get mad when you send "their articles" to deletion. As for me, I do what I can and step back when I think I should. I know that doesn't help you much. Chris Troutman (talk) 16:48, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Talking of Rudy Boesch, Chuck Yeager is still alive! how do these guys do it?

I fixed it for you. His company's website says he's dead. I'm sorry for the hassle. I'm surprised there hasn't been much coverage of his death since he was so preeminent in his field. Chris Troutman (talk) 15:37, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Chris. I know strange. Apparently the Times will be running a biography soon

Illustrating Bravehound

If you happen to be in the local area of this organization, or know someone who is, a photo could really add to your new article. You can upload images to Wikimedia Commons and display them here, but please note the person uploading the image must be the owner of the image. Not "my friend Bob took it and says it's okay", but the actual owner/taker of the photo must upload it. There is a way you can file someone's permission with WP:OTRS but honestly it's a hassle and it's easier just to take your own photo, or ask a friend to personally upload one.

That aside, also please note that per WP:Logo you can upload the logo of the organization under Fair Use. DO NOT label it as "own work" or whatnot, and make sure the logo is no larger than 300px when you upload it. Then just click the form to say "fair use, logo, for this article only, etc" and you can upload an article and paste the code into the infobox of your page.

Nice work, sounds like a great charity, glad to see you've been working here for a few years and enjoyed it! MatthewVanitas (talk) 22:35, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

Indigojones666 (talk) 15:08, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

You'll likely need better references than these for an encyclopedia article about MacDonald (those only mention her in passing without providing any details), but the majority of thesedescriber her as "an opera singer from Arisaig", so "Fiona MacDonald (opera singer)" seems most appropriate.

Your recent item has bben moved to draftspace as it is not ready for publishing in the encyclopedia itself. Biographical articles cannot be accepted without adequate sourcing. Also there is nothing in the item that demonstrates notability. Please also review the guide to article creation and the manual of style. When considered ready, please submit the article for review and please do not move it to mainspace or it may be deleted. Thank you. Eagleash (talk) 11:40, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

Dear Mr Eagle (Eagleash), MacDonald is notable for being the founder and CEO of two military charities ~ Bravehound and Glen Art ~ which have helped hundreds of veterans and has raised millions of pounds for said veterans. MacDonald has also brought together many notable people in order to help these people. My very reliable sources are ~ I really don't see how I can make them any better ~ BBC, Telegraph, Scotsman, Confederation of Service Charities, Prime Minister's Office of the United Kingdom, Big Issue, Animal Hero Awards, Jewish News and the National Lottery Good CausesIndigojones666 (talk) 18:21, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

Are you joking? Have you seen pages such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Pigalle?.. this page has no sources. I have loads of sources for MacDonald ~ All very respectable news organisations. Here date of birth is there. Her importance is starting Glen Art and Bravehound not her singing. Both the charities she started do great work for military veterans. I cannot find very good references for her singing ~ hence I did not include and to reiterate that is not important.Indigojones666 (talk) 16:16, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

Glen Art and Bravehound, both of which are on wikipedia would not exist if not for MacDonald. This page had loads of sources. MacDonald has raised millions for military veteransIndigojones666 (talk) 16:41, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

She is a fundraiser ~ the whole point is she does stuff for other people and not for herselfIndigojones666 (talk) 16:45, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

MacDonald is not notable for her singing (there are also not many reliable sources to reference), she is notable for the two military charities she has founded and the millions she has raised for veterans (hundreds of reliable sources such as the BBC, Telegraph, Channel 5, All the Veteran charities etc). MacDonald is notable for all the help she gives to veterans who risked their lives to make our world safe. Why is James Middleton (British businessman) on wiki?.. he makes cakes! I can easily write more about MacDonald but it is not important, it is important what she does.Indigojones666 (talk) 17:43, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

Dear Kylie and Angus, Why are these are on wiki?.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_I._Haswell. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Lived. What is your criteria? So you two can put whatever you like on wiki but I cannot?Indigojones666 (talk) 17:58, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

My sources are BBC, The Telegraph, Prime Minister's Office UK, The Scotsman, Veterans' Foundation, Big Issue, The Confederation of Service Charities, Irish Independent, Scottish Parliament, Herald Scotland, National Lottery Good Causes, Forces Net.

KylieTastic, you quote this as Major Contribution....

Frank I. Haswell has 6 back links and is notable for nothing at all.

The first source is not trusted by google? "Honorable Frank I. Haswell". mtmemory.org. The second source is not trusted by google? "Montana District Court Judges Frank I.

The article on Fiona MacDonald has back links to over 30 existing pages on Wikipedia, all of which she is citied in reliable news sources. I cannot reduce them more because this is how much she has done. Indigojones666 (talk) 14:11, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

KylieTastic and AngusW🐶🐶F are allowed to publish complete rubbish on Wikipedia ~ an encyclopaedia and not an extension of Facebook. Please check out their user pages.

Dead link 3. https://newspaperarchive.com/kalispell-daily-inter-lake-mar-20-1958-p-4/ The person who published this, is a Wikipedia editor and is allowed to publish rubbish. Sorry, I forgot that… You are so full of s**t. I have created 5 articles for wiki, and everyone is backed by reliable sources… simon carroll, al vandenberg, bravehound, john boyd and glen art.
