Please go to the file 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box.

Hello! I am mostly editing at Swedish Wikipedia and translate currently parts of the article Mount Everest, to Swedish. My question is about this edit, you wrote that the name Chomolungma could be found on a map published in Paris already 1733. But on this site, in Swedish, they write that it was on a map from 1773.
What I have found is this map from 1734 or 1737 (It looks like they do not know which year it is from.) and this from 1773. The first image resolution is to low and it is not possible to read what it stands. The second image does not show that part of the map I want to see.
So, do you know which year is the correct? Elfsborgarn ( talk) 14:20, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi RedWolf; I found you in the history of {{ Location map Canada British Columbia}}, which I just cloned with {{ Location map Canada British Columbia (no subdivisions)}} using File:Canada British Columbia (no subdivisions) location map.svg which someone had kindly created at my request quite a while ago but I've never tried to apply. I must have some clutter, probably, in the new one, and added some text to the original specifying what it should, and should not be, used for. I see from fixing Mount Albert Edward (British Columbia) that I don't have to directly alter {{ Infobox Mountain}} and would imagine the same applies for Infobox Lake, Infobox Island etc.....I"m of a mind that when Infobox Settlement is used for communities which ceased to exist before 1967 (when RDs were created, and not before) that an alternate map be available; I'm hoping eventually to have a map showing the historic regions, or able to highlight the region applicable to a certain subject, e.g. the actual boundaries of the Cariboo for Cariboo Gold Rush-related articles, or a map showing a Tshilqot'in community or Category:Settlements in the Chilcotin and bypass the undue-weight regional district mapping altogether....if I were a cartographer lots would have been made by now, let's put it that way....anyway, if you'd please have a look and tidy up any mistakes I made in the cloning/documentation....I've left the interwikis intact but may make a few of them, as I'd come up against these r.d. maps in fr-wiki and de-wiki and find them really irritating as they're not a normal way of subdividing/describing British Columbia....the weight placed on them (rds) by applying them to topics which have nothing to do with regional district governance needs to be checked and reversed...oen of the reasons being the spreading of this misconception into other languages; see the German-language article talkpage on Vancouver Island for more comments, though I could go on and on....RD maps are HIGHLY inappropriate for Indian Reserves or historic Indian villages, likewise for provincial parks, mountains, etc etc which regional district governance has no relation whatsoever to...

Thanks for uploading File:Journey Evolution.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).

I think its time to update the infobox. I'll make some notes at on the

instead of lat_d
were used. Do you think we should keep that option available. I know that syntax is used in templates such as {{

Dear RedWolf, I wonder if it was a good idea to replace articles on individual peaks in that range by redirects, merging their content with the Sentinel Range article in the process. In my opinion, those peaks (and other relevant geographic features such as massifs, ridges, cols, glaciers etc.) should have articles of their own with the possibility for further expansion including description, ascent histories, pictures etc. Best, Apcbg ( talk) 09:48, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi there I am making these categories based on eruption data from http://www.volcano.si.edu/ which list individual eruptions for volcanoes. I realize that some of these had eruptions in 2008, 2009, and 2010 but the data base list that these had separate eruptions in all three years. I for volcanoes like Chaitén I only categorized it by its start year since it is still erupting currently, and this would be defiantly over categorized. I also considered taking up this idea based on Earthquakes by Year creating a similar structure so people can see what volcanoes were erupting on what years. If this is unnecessary than maybe someone should consider creating a page similar to Earthquakes in 2010. I will stop at Category:Volcanoes erupting in 2008 and let the Volcano project discuss the matter on what they might do. Stormchaser89 ( talk) 10:50pm US central time, 4 December 2010
