Port Hope Simpson Wild Bay and Port Hope Simpson Right to the Top

Please stop adding copies of blog pages to Wikipedia. These articles to not conform to Wikipedia's WP:OR policy. We would welcome your encyclopediac contributions. Regards, Accurizer 18:28, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have merged the above two at User:Llewelynpritchard/blog. I agree with Accurizer - they do not belong in the (Main) namespace. -- RHaworth 18:06, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Likewise, I have moved Port Hope Simpson Clues to User:Llewelynpritchard/clues. And moved Port Hope Simpson Two Unsolved Deaths to User:Llewelynpritchard/deaths. -- RHaworth 18:13, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Challenge

Port Hope Simpson challenge was in fact no better than the above - just longer! I have moved it to User:Llewelynpritchard. It does not belong in the (Main) namespace because it is: vanity, original research, etc. Despite the large number of edits you have made, there has been absolutely no attempt to create wikilinks from or to it. I suggest you are just using Wikipedia as a free host or webspace provider.

If you disagree with the above and feel that any of the articles that I have "userfied" has a permanent place here, then raise the matter at Wikipedia:Deletion review. -- RHaworth 18:06, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Images

Please do not put "image-" at the start of image names - it is not needed. Please go through all your image uploads and:

any duplicate images should be marked {{db|duplicate of ...}}
all images should state their source precisely
supply honest license tags - {{PD-self}} is patently false for an image copied from a newspaper.

-- RHaworth 18:48, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have uploaded cropped versions of Image:Image-Sir John Hope Simpson much younger looking Commissioner photograph appeared in The Times p.16, 22.01.1934 of the 66 year old Commissioner of Natural Resources.jpg and Image:Image-John Osborn Williams, owner, Labrador development company limited, Port Hope Simpson.jpg but I cannot, in all conscience, leave {{PD-self}} tags in place. And sadly, I am not sure what tags to apply - even {{PD-old-50}} won't do for the John Hope Simpson image! I suggest you contact one of the people listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Members. -- RHaworth 07:35, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

deletions, moving pages and merger context

Thank you for these comments. Firstly, I have tried to avoid copying my blog pages when I realized this was not permitted. Secondly, I would like to ask you whether or not Wikipedia's policy guidelines will permit my contributions to be merged wherever possible into the list of Newfoundland and Labrador communites? Thirdly, your editing practice, whilst undoubtably based on Wiki premises, is not at all helpful in the real world context of the small Labrador coastal communities. Sir Wilfred Thomas Grenfell a great legendary missionary worker along the coast many years ago, correctly forecast that the growth of tourism would be crucial in helping the communities to survive and prosper. Whilst I appreciate that Wikipedia and all that it stands for most probably cannot concern itself with such matters as net outward population migration, I would ask you to take the above context into your merciless editing practices so that Wikipedia is accurately and effectively responding to the real world. Llewelyn

Usual practise is to add new stuff to the end of a page. I have replied here. Please always log in before editing, especially one's own talk page. -- RHaworth 09:07, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No linkspam please. It is not even as though your blogs are interesting - they all start with masses of more linkspam. Please, just for a few articles, try and produce stubs without links to your blogs. -- RHaworth 10:55, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I find it mind boggling that you felt that Port Hope Simpson's history of development 1773-2002 was a better title than Port Hope Simpson, Newfoundland and Labrador. It is bad enough that you seem to think Wikilinks unneccessary, but to throw away links created by others is vandalism. Excessive use of boldening is almost as bad as writing in capitals. -- RHaworth 06:57, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

reply

re. title - mind boggles mistake believe it or not I would prefer Port Hope Simpson, Newfoundland and Labrador - would you be willing and able to change this for me? W-links - can't understand why you seem to think I am opposed to them unless you are on a wind up mission ! - I need a bit of time from my real world to a) learn about them and b) to see where I can include them c) when you are completely new to something and my age you need a bit more time than the youngsters; throwing away links by others - not something I would intend doing, please be specific so I may correct my mistake(s), excessive use of boldening - will change, no problem. I appreciate your help RHaworth. Do you have a first name and it can't be Rita or is it? All the best Llewelyn

User page

I have put a bio note at the top of your user page. It is contrary to Wiki etiquette to edit another user's page so you may delete/amend it and I will not object. But I think it is an helpful note which may help others understand your edits. I had missed the dates and thought you were much younger. -- RHaworth 17:46, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your help. Llewelyn

More on images

Please note that I have replaced your four uploads of The Times image with Image:John Hope Simpson 1934.jpg. Hints: short images names are easier! There is a tab at top right called "my contributions" - that will tell you what you have already uploaded!

Well done on wikilinks. Now you must address image tags. OK, you are older than I thought but were you even born in 1934? I thought not, therefore you could not have taken Image:Image- The late Mr. Eric Williams was with the first landing party.jpg. Therefore you cannot apply a {{PD-self}} tag to it.

Also what is {{NowCommons|pagename}} supposed to mean? The Commons is a separate depository for images. I don't think you have uploaded anything there have you? In any case, if you use {{nowcommons}}, you replace pagename with the name you have used on the commons. (Given the PD-self problems, I suggest you steer well clear of the Commons - who are fussier about licensing than Wikipedia - except for images that you have genuinely taken yourself.)

Sorry if I seem to keep "going on" but having spotted blatantly false PD-self tags, I cannot just leave them can I? Please note, I am being gentle with you, someone else has taken the harsher course and put a PUI tag on Image:Image-Olga Marie Wiseman (Williams) nee D'Anitoff b. 1915 d.08.11.04.JPG. -- RHaworth 19:14, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image tags

Next job of correction starts again today. I want to get this right. Question: When somebody has given you a picture without any restictions regarding its use, or when it is already available in the public domain, doesn't that mean all copyright rights have been released and you are free to publish it yourself? Llewelyn

Please use ~~~~ to sign - it generates a time stamp as well.

Yes. Providing the person who gave you the image does have the rights, then of course you may publish it. But you may not use a {{PD-self}} tag because it states I, the creator of this work which in the case of most of your uploads is patently false. Also you must state the source carefully in the image description - putting it in the edit summary, as with Image:Image-Arthur Eric Williams, 21 years, Port Hope Simpson.jpg is not quite enough.

Wikipedia:Image copyright tags is a pretty daunting article but needs to be read. For images people have given you, try {{PD-release}}.

You may like to ask user:Hetar for advice on image tags - they are hot on copyright as well.

To some extent, I know I am nit-picking - the picture librarian of The Times is unlikely to chase us about image:John Hope Simpson 1934.jpg but we need to be seen to be doing things properly. (And remember to remove {{NowCommons|pagename}} !) I have placed a lsit of your images at User:Llewelynpritchard/uploads. -- RHaworth 06:52, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

re copyright tags

Most of the photos I haven't taken myself are from the Labrador development company limited brochure or from personal photos kindly given to me as a gift by john illsely surviving grandson of the owner. When he gave them to me, after I had asked him, he did say that i could use them as I saw fit. I am endeavouring to follow your good advice to the letter.I am using {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} the creative commons share alike license because it seems the most helpful and best of purpose. LlewelynLlewelynpritchard 14:00, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent. The ones I have looked at so far seem perfect. I was going to say that Image:The Inscription on the grave of J.O. and Ethel Kate Williams,.jpg only needs {{PD-self}} cos you took it. But, considering that a tombstone could be considered a two-dimensional work of art (see Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp.), then it is probably a good idea to include the other tag as well! -- RHaworth 20:38, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

to be continued tomorrow

Thanks. Am I right to assume that those unecessary duplicate images from which I have removed all tags will be automatically deleted?Llewelynpritchard 21:08, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No! Such duplicates as have been deleted have been meticulously done by me. Mark your duplicates {{db|duplicate of [[image:pagename]]}} where pagename is replaced by the image name. Then they will disappear fairly quickly. -- RHaworth 21:23, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

images marked for speedy deletion - done

I apologize for all this extra work..Llewelynpritchard 13:14, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, but I'm baffled by your speedy deletion tags at Image:1 John Hope Simpson 66 years Port Hope Simpson naming ceremo.jpg and Image:Arthur Eric Williams, 21 years, Port Hope Simpson.jpg. You tagged them as duplicates of nonexistant images bearing the same name without the .jpg suffix. I've removed the speedy tags and reverted to the previous version until we can clear this up. What articles did you want to use these images in? Do you want them deleted, and if so, why? Angr (t • c) 13:25, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

to tidy up list of images/ to work on more wikiencyclopedic content to complete my contribution for Port Hope Simpson, Newfoundland and Labrador site

re. 1. Image:1 John Hope Simpson 66 years Port Hope Simpson naming ceremo.jpg and Image:Arthur Eric Williams, 21 years, Port Hope Simpson.jpg. You tagged them as duplicates of nonexistant images bearing the same name without the .jpg suffix. - oh hells bells, that's my mistake after getting back from work - glad you spotted it - thanks 2. What articles did you want to use these images in? - Port Hope Simpson, Newfoundland and Labrador. I am assuming that I only need to keep one copy of each image for successful linkage with my various articles. Is that correct? (that's why I wanted what I thought were unecessary duplicates deleted). / I need to about double the length of my Port Hope Simpson, Newfoundland and Labrador contribution - will that be too much?Llewelynpritchard 15:14, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Length isn't usually a problem, but there is a problem that your contributions don't read like an encyclopedia entry. If you haven't already, please read Wikipedia's neutral point-of-view policy. Passages like Williams was only really interested in making as much money as quickly as possible. He was a deceitful, unreliable and untrustworthy businessman are simply not written from a neutral point of view. Also, please read about citing sources and what qualifies as reliable sources. The fact that you yourself seem to be the author of some of these books cited in the "Sources" section may raise eyebrows; also, without full bibliographical information it's impossible for other people to verify the information. (Try using Template:Cite book for the books in the "Sources" section; see Template talk:Cite book for instructions on how to use it.) Verifiability is established policy at Wikipedia, and it has a consequence that rubs a lot of newcomers the wrong way at first: Just because you know something to be true doesn't mean you can put it up at Wikipedia. You must provide a way for other people to verify the truthfulness of your statements.

Okay, now back to the images. Indeed, you don't need multiple copies of the same image floating around. Unwanted duplicates should be tagged {{redundant image|Whatever.jpg}} where "Whatever.jpg" is the name of the image you're keeping. Also, when you're uploading images, try to keep their names brief. I mean, is there any particular reason Image:1 John Hope Simpson 66 years Port Hope Simpson naming ceremo.jpg couldn't have been named Image:John Hope Simpson.jpg? Don't bother changing the names of existing images now, though, I just mean when you upload images in the future, try to keep their names brief. Angr (t • c) 16:02, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Image-John Osborn Williams, owner, Labrador development company limited, Port Hope Simpson.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Image-John Osborn Williams, owner, Labrador development company limited, Port Hope Simpson.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Shell ^babelfish 06:38, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Image-Sir JHS outside Buckingham palace after receiving knighthood.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Image-Sir JHS outside Buckingham palace after receiving knighthood.JPG.

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.

Speedy deletion of Indian Ocean Islands:

A tag has been placed on Indian Ocean Islands:, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Without any forthcoming suggestion I have contributed to this page by using Mauritius as an example of a country that is not focussed enough, if at all, in its tourism development policy towards the FITS to the detriment of people working in and for the self catering accommodation sector on the island.

Orphaned non-free image File:John Osborn Williams facing camera and Arthur Eric Williams.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:John Osborn Williams facing camera and Arthur Eric Williams.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:25, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of File:Ernie Pritchard having a brew-up in the woods, Port Hope Simpson 1969.jpg

The file File:Ernie Pritchard having a brew-up in the woods, Port Hope Simpson 1969.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Small image without EXIF data, previously published elsewhere, no evidence of a free license.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

File permission problem with File:Image-Port hope simpson come home 2002 image.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Image-Port hope simpson come home 2002 image.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [email protected], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [email protected].

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 14:30, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
