Orphaned non-free media (File:Rgs-ibg logo.png)
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Rgs-ibg logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:16, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

[edit]Daniel
I wonder why you made the persons names bold in this edit? I don't think it is part of the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Or maybe I'm wrong. Where did you see this done/mentioned elsewhere?
Keep up the good work. Atlas-maker (talk) 12:33, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
That section just seemed to be a quite a wordy, so putting the names in bold was just a way of emphasising the notable people. Is that for most other locations, the notable people section is normally a bullet list, which reads better to me. Thank you for the link to style manual. As my userpage says, I am new to editing on Wikipedia, so this is very helpful! Danielstoker (talk) 08:16, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- Daniel - the normal format for replies is to indent using the colon character : at the beginning of each paragraph. So rather than you adding italics using tick marks, you should really replace the tick marks with a single colon. Glad to be helpful. I too prefer the bullet lists, but the generally preferred encyclopaedic format is prose. Atlas-maker (talk) 11:17, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you again for the tips! I'll get the hang of things eventually! (Hopefully!) Danielstoker (talk) 15:29, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
