John X Merriman

Since you live on the Cape, maybe you can help on adding and possibly rewording text from the public domain 1911 Brittannica for use on the page for John X. Merriman. (I put a link on the talk page and put some text from it in.) Maybe you can start a page for him in Afrikaans--Ted-m (talk) 03:42, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for jumping the gun a little bit there. I agree with the changes you made. Zain Ebrahim (talk) 15:42, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:UFH logo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:UFH logo.gif. 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 'image' 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 "Image" 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. BJBot (talk) 06:12, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice

Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

Fix link, if you wish

Two of the three links named "here" in your recent category nomination for Category:Free State Province seem to go to the same page; I guess this is a cut-and-paste error. Best, JoergenB (talk) 19:44, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
