editCategories
editFor every category you create, you should specify parent categories to which it belongs. You can do this by listing the parents near the bottom of the page, each enclosed in double brackets like so:

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to USS Patrick Henry (SSBN-599), is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. -MBK004 01:42, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- OK, good catch. References have been added. Thanks, Legohead1my_talk 12:38, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Category:Historic Buildings (St. Marys, Georgia)
editHi Legohead1
I have proposed that Category:Historic Buildings (St. Marys, Georgia), which you created, should be deleted. Your input would be welcome in the discussion at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2009 December 23#Category:Historic_Buildings_.28St._Marys.2C_Georgia.29. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:40, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
- Understand. Legohead1my_talk 12:36, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Linda Hudson.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Linda Hudson.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
PLEASE NOTE:
- I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
- I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
- If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
- To opt out of these bot messages, add
{{bots|deny=DASHBot}}
to your talk page. - If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.
Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:32, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
- So DASHBot... what you are saying, to get a photo of someone, is a real pain. Legohead1my_talk Legohead1 (talk) 12:39, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
Your Signature
editHi Legohead1. Just thought you might want to know that templates are generally forbidden in users' signatures. See WP:SIG#NT. If you're going to use a template, I recommend substituting the template like so: {{subst:User:Legohead1/Template:signature}}
, in your preferences. Regards, FASTILY (TALK) 21:28, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you for that information. I hope I did it correctly -> Legohead1my_talk 11:36, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
