The tube map

Hello, McDRye, I liked the Edgware-area tube map you did on the Edgware tube station-page. Is that a genuine TfL New Johnston-font used? If you'd care to tell me how/where you got hold of it, I'd be most grateful. As far as I know the newest version of it is virtually impossible to obtain. Cheers! Pneumaman 10:31, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the comment! Actually I kinda cheated by using the letters from names of other stations and rearranging them into new names. I know what you mean by the font being impossible to get hold of although I do have a Johnston font but it only has capital letters.

Ok, cheating is allowed.. I've seen a few more of your illustrations now, and I've got to say I'm pretty impressed! If you've got a tube map at hand with all extensions added, I'd love to see it :) 84.48.73.170 23:32, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Here is a link to a map I created last year. Whilst it is not complete, it shows as many planned projects and closures as I could find out. The idea is that the map might have looked like this is all plans were open today and no stations were closed. I'm aware of certain errors although I felt this map became more confusing than helpful especially in the constrained middle. You can look at the development of this map here Credit must go to the original map and the people behind the idea. My map is based partly on the information from this excellent link

I would like to congratulate you on your excelent work with regard to the lonodn underground map. i have noticed that the map is not entirley complete do you have a fully complete map now?--Lucy-marie 20:53, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

As a follow up do you have an updated version of this map with the overground and DLR extensions on?--Lucy-marie 23:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi McDRye,

Impressed by the tube maps you've done. How do you create them? I'd love to have a go at doing a future map with all the planned works. Could you repost the map you link to above? I can't seem to access the file.

Hai McDRye, could you re-upload the full map please, the link is dead, thanks,

Image Tagging Image:City Road Map.png

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:City Road Map.png. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. 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 qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then 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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Hetar 06:35, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging for Image:LTS OldMap.png

Thanks for uploading Image:LTS OldMap.png. 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 don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

License tagging for Image:Moorgate Nameboard.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Moorgate Nameboard.png. 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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

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. 00:07, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Woolworths "pre-owned video games"

You stated that Woolworth's sell "pre-owned video games". Although I've seen "bargain bin" goods (including those that have lost their cases being sold at cheap prices), I don't recall ever seeing second-hand goods.

I removed this claim; you're welcome to put it back if you can back it up with a verifiable source. All the best. Fourohfour 13:14, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Lakeside Shopping Elevators.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Lakeside Shopping Elevators.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 20:10, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:New Lakeside boardwalk.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:New Lakeside boardwalk.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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Hello, just a quickie to say I love these little map fragments that you uploaded, and it would be fascinating to see the entire Tube map with all of those stations on it. Cheers. --Psicorps 09:56, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Chad valley.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Chad valley.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 21:42, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Tube map sections revisited.

Hey Ryan, I was wondering would it be possible for you to do a couple more mock-up maps for the articals Lothbury tube station and City and Brixton Railway? Up to you which colour to use for the latter, though Ive always found gold to compliment the other lines in that area :)

Speedy deletion of Image:GillespieRoad Signr.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:GillespieRoad Signr.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:GillespieRoad Signr.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Sdrtirs (talk) 02:31, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

License for Image:Northern_Heights_Map_Mockup.png

Your Image:Northern_Heights_Map_Mockup.png

Move to commons representation

The image Northern_Heights_Map_Mockup.png is a candidate to be copied to the Wikimedia Commons. When you uploaded this image, you licensed it for use under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL). On behalf of the Wikipedia and Commons communities, thank you. However, the GFDL requires that reproductions of the image (and any other GFDL-licenced works), must be accompanied by the full text of the GFDL. The GFDL is intended more for documentation and not images, so downstream re-users may be hindered by additional restrictions of the GFDL which may not work well on the use of one image.

Before I copy this image to the Commons, I wanted to ask whether you would be willing to multilicense your work under an additional license, such as a Creative Commons licence. Creative Commons licences, such as the Attribution Share-Alike license provide a similar copyleft permission to the GFDL, but without some of its requirements such as the distribution of the licence text. All you need to do, is place the additional license tag alongside your current license. Users can choose between which one they want to use the image under. There are many free licenses accepted on Wikipedia and Commons which can provide freedoms similar to the GFDL, but without some of its requirements.

You are under no obligation whatsoever to alter the license. Doing so merely cooperates with those members of the community who believe that multilicensing your work can ease the reuse of images outside of Wikipedia.

If you use a GFDL license tag which requires distribution of Wikipedia's general disclaimer (indicated by "Subject to disclamiers" in the template), it is also suggested that you switch it to one which does not apply them.

It is also strongly advised, to update to the 1.3 version of the GFDL.

Whether or not you choose to dual-license your work, thank you for your consideration.

Please also see Wikipedia:Copyrights and Wikipedia:Moving images to the Commons for more information. This message was placed using Template:Dual-licence.

Speedy deletion nomination of Alex Mendham

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on Alex Mendham requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you can assert the importance of the subject, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 13:00, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

• WP:Notability needs to be shown by references showing significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. The standard for musical performers is explained at WP:MUSICBIO.

Problems with upload of File:AlexMendham1.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:AlexMendham1.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or provided a license tag. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, select the appropriate license tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you can't find a suitable license tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
