[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, you may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did in Reservoir sampling, makes it harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. PDCook (talk) 01:42, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
What was wrong with the style I used in that article?
Photograph
[edit]Hello Ade oshineye !
I have uploaded your image of Posy Simmonds on Commons (here). Unfortunately, they have to delete it, because the link indicates that you're not the image is protected by copyrigth (see here) and that you're not the author of this photograph. I suppose you made a mistake when uploading it, for I saw on Flickr your own photograph (this one) which is very well too and under a better license. Sorry for my english.
Could you do something ? Best regards. --Wikinade (talk) 16:34, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
At the time I uploaded the photo (at the request of Posy Simmonds's people) that photo was appropriately licensed on Flickr. It seems they've changed the license afterwards.
As a contributor to this article, you may be interested to know I have nominated it for deletion. Your comments are welcome at WP:Articles for deletion/Mark McDonald. Robofish (talk) 22:18, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
