About removing items from your talk page
Hi, I noticed that you removed the note I left you earlier today, asking you not to remove tags like {{categorize}} from articles unless you had solved the issue that the tag addressed. Although it's not a policy, it is common courtesy not to delete talk page items unless you have at least responded to them. From Misplaced Pages:Talk_pages#User_talk_pages:
- Actively erasing non-harassing personal messages without replying (if a reply would be appropriate or polite) will probably be interpreted as hostile. In the past, this kind of behavior has been viewed as uncivil...
If you didn't understand something that I wrote, feel free to ask me. But in general, you should leave comments on your talk page (or on a talk page archive) unless they're harassment or personal attacks. | Mr. Darcy talk 01:33, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
- No worries! Misplaced Pages:Wikiquette can take a little getting used to, and as you said, the technical aspects of the Wiki can too. If something else throws you, don't hesitate to put a question on my talk page. Thanks! | Mr. Darcy talk 14:52, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Unblock
To look into an autoblock, I'll need some more information -- original blockee, blocking admin, at least. Will check back in a bit. Luna Santin 01:01, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

As you have been a major contributor, I was wondering what you think of what I've been doing at List of winners of Unofficial Football World Championships. Kevin McE 12:46, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Why are you putting references to Paul Batchelder on the James Batchelder entry ?
License tagging for Image:LeafStormMarquezPenguin.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:LeafStormMarquezPenguin.jpg. Misplaced Pages gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Misplaced Pages, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions. 22:08, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

I came across a few of your footballer articles during new article patrol. Could you please add sources to the article, so other editors know where the information comes from? - Mgm| 19:25, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Orphaned fair use image (Image:Orwell1984Penguin.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Orwell1984Penguin.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Misplaced Pages and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).
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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 11:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
Mr. Hudson & The Library
Hello, GiantSnowman. Your recent article Mr. Hudson & The Library was tagged for deletion, because it did not fall under the notability requirements for bands. Please see Misplaced Pages:Notability (music) for more information. GhostPirate 15:59, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Gallery of Bradford City kits
I fixed the wonky formatting for the first two decades in the Gallery of Bradford City kits article. I'll let you have the 'fun' of fixing the rest. Also: I think that the article should be moved to Gallery of Bradford City A.F.C. kits (or uniforms?). 10:18, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
- The last decade is too wide for readers viewing the page at 1024x768. You might divide that section into two rows. Anything over four 'kits' wide may be too wide for people viewing the page at 800x600, so you might also consider dividing those decades.
- Also: I'm not sure how well the gallery page fits into the guidelines at Misplaced Pages:Galleries, although nobody will probably find the page unless they were specifically looking for the different gallery pages in the Misplaced Pages namespace like I was. :-) 11:18, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
