Hi there, thanks for uploading Image:Sopron Fire Tower.jpg. I noticed that although you had specified in the description that you released the image into the public domain, you hadn't added the appropriate license tag. Every image on Wikipedia must have a license tag, even if the license is described in the description, to ensure everyone can understand what the terms of use are. I've added the appropriate tag to the image for you, but just for future reference: if you wish to release an image to the public domain, please add {{PD-self}} to the description field when you upload it. Thanks!

Hi Greenshed, I removed the 1855 establishments category from the Penn State article because it's already on the Penn State category. In theory, the main article of a category shouldn't have more than one category on it (but the templates screw things up a bit on the PSU article). --Spangineer^[es] (háblame) 03:22, 3 May 2006 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2006-05-03T03:22:00.000Z","author":"Spangineer","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Spangineer-2006-05-03T03:22:00.000Z-Agathoclea-2006-05-01T23:08:00.000Z","replies":["c-Jensbn-2006-07-15T09:39:00.000Z-Spangineer-2006-05-03T03:22:00.000Z"]}}-->

Is it really necessary to add the tiny Greenland settlements to the establishments by year? Most of them have less than 100 population, and nobody outside Greenland is every likely to have heard of them, they're of no historical significance.

Greenshed, could you explain your revision to the Norman Technologies article, regarding the change of 1997 Establishments category?

I got your message about the Re-cat. However, I'd feel much more comfortable about this if you were trying to be more productive on these Re-cats in the 1997 establishments. While you moved Norman Technologies, there are at least 3 dozen more companies still sitting there in the "1997 Establishments" category. Do you plan to move these, so that the new category doesn't look like an orphanage?

My hand shall be lended. As I write articles about notable companies, I'll be adding the "new" category to them. For community's sake I will also take the time to "re-cat" about 5 or 10 companies that are clearly companies.

• Thanks for the information. A concern has been raised about the heavy-handed effort at consistency, which involves trying to repeat your work for establisments which existed during the first millenium. In other words, it is quite unlikely that you will find a comparable amount of information about first century establishments as currently exists for twentieth-century establishments. As such, I am looking to nominate some categories for deletion.

For more information on the discussion which transpired regarding this matter, please see the discussion entitled "Excessive categorization" at the Village pump.

I would like to know what you think of this matter, so if you have any comments, please join the aforementioned discussion. Cheers. --Folajimi 13:47, 10 June 2006 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2006-06-10T13:47:00.000Z","author":"Folajimi","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Folajimi-2006-06-10T13:47:00.000Z-Folajimi-2006-06-09T22:25:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Greenshed, since you seem to have helped organize Category:Establishments by year via Template:estcat, would you suggest simply changing Template:discat or creating a temporary one and then changing that so that Category:Disestablishments by year isn't a mess? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 19:32, 11 June 2006 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2006-06-11T19:32:00.000Z","author":"Ricky81682","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ricky81682-2006-06-11T19:32:00.000Z-Disestablishments_by_year","replies":["c-Ricky81682-2006-06-11T19:43:00.000Z-Ricky81682-2006-06-11T19:32:00.000Z"]}}-->

Ok, ignore most of that, but can you explain the logic behind the third and fourth parameters? I'm guessing the third is for the table but is the fourth even necessary?

Sorted using AWB. Rich Farmbrough 20:34 15 June 2006 (GMT).

P.S. there is no year zero. Rich Farmbrough 20:36 15 June 2006 (GMT).

Look at Category:8_establishments. I've set the << to be 2BC, but it displays 0 anyway. Incidentally you didn't really need the temporary template, look at the source of Category:515 BC establishments. Rgds, Rich Farmbrough 20:47 15 June 2006 (GMT).

Hi, I would like to know whether you have something against it to change your template's colour a little.

I established the empty categories because I found that some were created incorrectly--the first one or two that I created, I made a mistake: I didn't have the date menu on the top. It doesn't appear to be an issue to me. If someone creates a page, entries the category and happpens to be the first entrant, the page is sitting there waiting for them!

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on History of Gibraltar during World War II, by Mike Payne (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because History of Gibraltar during World War II fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason:

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting History of Gibraltar during World War II, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 01:27, 23 July 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-07-23T01:27:00.000Z","author":"Android Mouse Bot 2","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Android_Mouse_Bot_2-2007-07-23T01:27:00.000Z-History_of_Gibraltar_during_World_War_II","replies":[]}}-->

A tag has been placed on Stephen Strafford requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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.
