Hi Keith, As it rained (yet again!!) today, I thought I would try to make a start on editing York. The GA reviewer left some useful remarks and, as yet, no one seems to have taken it on board. I've done a bit of re-arranging and copyediting so far. Have you any idea how we can get shot of the lists? Most of the Noted York people are already on the List of people from York, but I can't find any where to put the City districts and surrounding villages. Any thoughts, please?-- Harkey ( talk) 18:38, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
(reset indent)Thanks for sorting out all the areas of York. I'm using the information that you are inputting for the table I'm constructing for York. I found a neat little toy Here today. It's O.K. if you have a street name in the area. Even tells you the nearest pub!!-- Harkey ( talk) 20:07, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Have a look at Talk:Gillian Merron and at the "Humberside and Lincolnshire" section. Is not Grimsby in Lincolnshire? Go to Grimsby and they say they are from Lincolnshire. Your opinion would be helpful. I'm also getting BulldozerD11 to have a look as this as it is important for clarifying for Lincolnshire. -- BSTemple ( talk) 17:32, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
Hi Keith,
It appears a bone of contention to me that you edit Ferens Hall page. I understand that it is part of the "wikiproject yorkshire" and you have made many valuble updates since i created the page, as Ferens Hall librarian and University of Hull (The Owners) staff member.
Some images are attributed to indeviduals and organisations as appropriate and required by wikipedia regulations.
Regulations for Creative Commons : http://wiki.creativecommons.org/FAQ
The portion of the text i give reference to is as follows
" What are the terms of a Creative Commons license?
The key terms of the core suite of Creative Commons licenses are: Attribution, NonCommercial, NoDerivatives and ShareAlike. These license elements are succinctly described as follows:
Attribution. You let people copy, distribute, display, perform, and remix your copyrighted work, as long as they give you credit the way you request. All CC licenses contain this property. "
As intended by the regulations the work has been stated on wikipedia commons images pages that:
{{ self}}
This clearly states the name/s of the owner/organisation must be "attributed to the owner" on all pages the images are shown
I hope these regulations don't cause to much of an issue for yourself to follow
thankyou for your time

Keith,
Thanks for the major update to the Ferens Hall Page it is most appreciated. Additional infomation about the halls history with references will be added as the dusty books in the library are sorted.
The infomation provided by John Treherne about his father Jim Treherne and Ferens Hall. I have no reference to Jim how ever there are many references to an A. J. Treherne. If you have contact with John could you confirm his dads actual first name.
Thanks

Hey Keith,
I've noticed how active you are with Wikipedia:WikiProject Yorkshire. I'm not really a content editor but I see the need for Redcar to be rewritten; could you assist me (just in terms of advice) if need be? I plan to start in about a fortnight.
I'll try to fix the Redcar and Cleveland template too in about a fortnight; I promised to do it a year ago and just forgot. Computerjoe 's talk 16:38, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Recently, while you were away the article Sydenham, Warwickshire was merged into Leamington Spa. I am not happy with the way the merge discussion was closed to merge the page, the votes being 3 to 2 and the discussion was still underway the day before. It was formally listed as a merge for discussion, and for a controversial merge an administrator is generally asked to close the discussion, but this did not happen and the editor who closed the merge was involved in the discussion expressing an opinion to merge the page. Snowman ( talk) 22:54, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Hi - the references are from the UK Office of the European Parliament; the 2004 candidates are at [1] and the 1999 candidates are at [2]. I was planning to add the references to all the articles once I've finished adding names, but as it's taking a while, perhaps I should do so now. If you'd like to get in there first, please feel free! Warofdreams talk 13:56, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Many thanks for making the navbox template. Since I made the navbox it was on my 'to do' list but I hadn't got round to it. let me know if I can return a favour anytime. BTW, we're launching a Worcestershire project in a few days. Feel free to drop by. -- Kudpung ( talk) 11:48, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
Hi Keith,I really do think your idea is an excellent one. It is something that I would be willing to participate in both as a learner and tutor.I would certainly have welcomed such help.There were/are times when I found/find tasks too daunting to contemplate and a little shove in the right direction might be all that is needed. I think it could well help (experienced) others to realise that aggressive/negative edit summaries are not big and clever and are non-productive in the long run. As the whole purpose of WP is to build through co-operation I think your suggestion embodies the spirit of Wikipedia in a nutshell. I would be willing to give time to help in the running etc. of it, if it got off the ground.(Excuse any typos, my connection is so slow that I can go and have a coffee before a new page loads so I will not preview this.)-- Harkey ( talk) 12:41, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
Hi Keith! Could you take a look at the image gallery added to the Brighouse article Churches section. It contains four images of stained glass. The article section indicates two churches have stained glass windows from the William Morris factory. The image descriptions clearly indicate three of them used to be in St James church in Brighouse, yet the fourth image description indicate its from a building in the Bradford area. However all four windows are now in the Cliffe Castle Museum and depicted in that article. I don't really see that these images are relevant to the Brighouse article, but would welcome a second opinion! Richard Harvey ( talk) 15:44, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
1 - Pocklington is not a prep school 2 - Pocklington is 16.5 miles from Driffield and takes 40-45 minutes. Source - Google Maps. (Note - you must use the correct postcode for Pocklington School to get an accurate distance and timing.) 3 - Woodleigh is 14.9 miles from Driffield and takes 25-30 minutes. Source - Google Maps. 4 - Your revert was not based and fact and was unsourced, and it was therefore unprofessional and antiWP to revert the edit.
Please do not revert this edit otherwise you will likely start an edit war.

I have been doing a decent amount of editing recently on Wikipedia, especially with referencing and removing 'citation needed' tag, and I have noticed how many websites that there are on the Internet which have identical pages (or a previous version) of the Wikipedia page of the same topic (and some of them don't state that they are "ghost" website of Wikipedia - any copyright issue??). I find these very annoying and I am wondering if thre should be a list on Wikipedia or something made to tell people what are and what aren't "ghost" sites of Wikipedia so then people don't use them for references, which is what I have found in some articles, because that defeats the whole purpose of using references. Thank-you. De Mattia ( talk) 07:45, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Editor bias on wikipedia? Well I never!

I have been doing a decent amount of editing recently on Wikipedia, especially with referencing and removing 'citation needed' tag, and I have noticed how many websites that there are on the Internet which have identical pages (or a previous version) of the Wikipedia page of the same topic (and some of them don't state that they are "ghost" website of Wikipedia - any copyright issue??). I find these very annoying and I am wondering if thre should be a list on Wikipedia or something made to tell people what are and what aren't "ghost" sites of Wikipedia so then people don't use them for references, which is what I have found in some articles, because that defeats the whole purpose of using references. Thank-you. De Mattia ( talk) 07:45, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
