Thanks for your comments about my edits to the article./ It's a good job you noticed what I'd done wrong, otherwise I'd have left the 33 out. While I checked that all the routes were in (like Wightbus' 20 route) I must have missed that I'd deleted the 33. All is fixed now though! -- Thanks, Arriva436 shout! 16:40, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:IWSR crest.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation 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. Mifter ( talk) 19:08, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:IWSR crest.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 12:12, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

With regards to your message, I didn't actually create the article Jean Lee (reporter), I simply renamed it as there were two Jean Lee's. I have no knowledge or interest in the article, so I don't mind what happens with it. Thanks for letting me know though. I appreciate your courtesy. Rossrs ( talk) 08:41, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks- I have now signed up to the Caulkhead Army. It says itstarted on 20 October 2008, which is puzzling. Shall I add ideas for expansion on the page ? Currently I am thinking of Ryde School and executions on the IOW ; Michal Morey and the IOW Catholic martyrs, Marsden & Anderson.-- Streona ( talk) 06:26, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi,
As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.
We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.
You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

Hi! As you may have noticed, I've just made a couple of changes to your excellent image Image:IsleofWightPublicTransportmap April 2008.jpg. Although it's still under the title "April 2008", I've updated it to the latest SV changes. I hope you don't mind.
These are some of the updates I did:
I hope you don't mind these slight changes, as there's no point in having an out of date job. I've made a rather shabby job of it as I don't have the original, so it's only and interim measure while you can hopefully one day make a proper new one. Also, if you can do this, would it be better as a PNG image? I say that as it wouldn't blotch!!
Thanks, and keep the good work up with all your SV edits!! Arriva436 talk/ contribs 19:00, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Limerstone requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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
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.
