License tagging for File:Carlsson Pan Am 103.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Carlsson Pan Am 103.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Non-free rationale for File:Bernt Carlsson 5.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Bernt Carlsson 5.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. January (talk) 19:21, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

See

See WP:RSN#Is Patrick Haseldine a reliable source for a statement linking the Lockerbie bombing to the Rössing uranium mine?. Dougweller (talk) 16:30, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Given that the edit in question was a direct copy-paste from the source, and thus a breach of copyright, I have removed it. Please familiarise yourself with Wikipedia:Copy-paste, and with Wikipedia:Copyrights policy in general. AndyTheGrump (talk) 16:47, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The World In Action synopsis for the documentary "Follow the Yellowcake Road", broadcast on 10 March 1980, clearly states:

"WIA investigates the secret contract and operation arranged by British-based Rio Tinto Zinc Corp to import into Britain uranium (yellow cake) from the Rossing mine in Namibia, one of whose major shareholders is the South African government. This contract having received the blessing of the British government is now compromising its position in the U.N negotiations to remove South Africa from Namibia, which it is illegally occupying."

In The Ecologist article, Haseldine makes a very credible link between both the illegal occupation and the illegal exploitation of Namibia's natural resources to the targeting of the highest profile victim of the Lockerbie bombing, Bernt Carlsson. Don't you agree?--Ecophriendly (talk) 21:03, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Engage do not plough on regardless

Please engage with the talk page discussion which was directed to in the previous edit summary. Also please d not keep re-adding the information which is being disputed. There are serious NPOV issues with the information you keep on re-adding to the article. Continuing nob engagement goes against the collaborative working ethos of Wikipeida.

"Serious NPOV issues" with this petition? More likely Sport and politics isn't a Green Party supporter!--Ecophriendly (talk) 15:22, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Most Wikipedia contributors aren't Green Party supporters, any more than most of our readers are. Wikipedia isn't here to promote specific political parties or their agendas. If you wish to do that, you will have to do so elsewhere. AndyTheGrump (talk) 16:44, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

October 2014

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Resurgence & Ecologist. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. This edit[1] which added text such as "For positive perspectives, outstanding features and exceptional writing on the issues that really matter, read Resurgence & Ecologist magazine. Inside each issue you'll find cutting-edge articles on environmental, ethical and social issues, together with stunning art, poetry and reviews." is unacceptable. We aren't the magazine's Facebook page Dougweller (talk) 20:33, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
