I have read all of the comments, but none of the less I do not know what you mean by "source files". Are you asking for me to cite sources? I am just confused on what you want me to do lol. But I read all of the comments and I saw what you were talking about on regard to Photoshop. Unfortunately, I do not have Inkscape or Illustrator. Keeby101 ( talk) 02:02, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
Oh. I think I am starting to see what you are talking about now to an extent. Re-reading what you said in the comments, I saw that you were having trouble with the file being a JEPG. I will indeed go back to the original psd file in Photoshop, but unfortunately since I do not know Photoshop all too well and since I do not know what tools to use on Photoshop to do what you are asking me to do, I still find it difficult to understand what you are talking about for the most part. I also still have trouble understanding what you are talking about on regards to the sources that you are asking for. Apologies. :( Keeby101 ( talk) 02:06, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
P.S. I hope I am not frustrating you with this. I am just having difficulties understanding all of this fully. Regards. :) Keeby101 ( talk) 02:15, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
Is there any chance you could help me out on my other image? It would be great to see some type of marker to point out Jassini (written Jassin on this map) on File:Map of German East Africa showing Jassini.jpg. Could you do that by adding a dot or something?

Good day Begoon, a lot of time was spent ensuring that the Pearce Robinson article met Wikipedia's requirements. Also in terms of citations and reference verification, you are free to check with the very institutions in question. If official notification and or documentation is required that can be provided to you as soon as possible. If you require the university of kent to place a notice on their website with the information, it will also be done as soon as possible. But instead of deleting just say what you require and it will be fixed Capture2015 ( talk) 17:59, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm just wondering if "Recognized" is suitable to describe English on the Info-box for Brunei in regards to the reference used on footnote(b) which has got to do with section (2) of Article 82 on the Consitution http://www.agc.gov.bn/agc1/images/LOB/cons_doc/dokumen-dokumen_perlembagaan_2008.pdf Alevero987 ( talk) 21:09, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
Hi. I saw your message about the map changes.
Spain is still 13 because the law has not yet been finally approved, but will (probably) soon be. Also could you please also change on the map the shade of blue for the age of 12 to another color (yellow maybe?) This has been requested numerous times on talk pages because there are way too many shades of blue and they get confused with each other. 188.25.159.68 ( talk) 04:01, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
And Sierra Leone is 18, if you could change that too. ( Ages_of_consent_in_africa#Sierra_Leone). 188.25.159.68 ( talk) 04:09, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
Both requests Done. Sierra Leone -> 18; 12 -> yellow.

Thank you so much. You did such a good job of articulating everything that I was thinking when I saw the tags. The only reason I was even on Wikipedia (after such a long absence) is that I recently started teaching a GED prep course and one of my students was asking me trivia about the Mt. Washington Cog Railway locomotive and I was a bit embarrassed that I did not know the answers considering I had written that article. So, I told the class that I had written it and then came home and decided to look at it, only to find the tags. Then I was really embarrassed. BTW, it might surprise you to know that I am a madame, not a sir (see Ishtar). -- Ishtar456 ( talk) 20:58, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

. Hopefully you'll spare me your Godlike smiting for my human error, and have pity on a mere mortal. My username has nowhere near such exalted connections - just the name of a monster my little girl invented when she was four...
Yes, that's the problem. If the things were just "improvement" tags that sat on the talkpage, then I'd have no problem with people using them to say "this is how I think this could be improved", and have a discussion about it. But whilst they sit atop the article screaming "broken - fix me now!" then they should only be used if that is unambiguously the case, and there was certainly no need for them there. Your example is of the very thing that bothers me the most - what the reader sees. You don't keep your mops and buckets on display in your showhome, you have a closet for them, and in the same way, the talkpage, an area the reader will not encounter, is a fine place for notices and discussions about improvement or maintenance. Thanks for taking the time to leave the note, and the barnstar too - tags on talkpages, you see - it could catch on
