User talk:Mm67
If you want, I can look over the article you wish to create (on your relative who was a scientist) You may consider putting it in your userspace, i.e. "User:Mm67/(insert scientists name)" Which would look like User:Mm67/Joe Bloggs and then when we are both satisfied, I can move it across to the mainspace for you, therefore keeping your edits. I have around 1600 edits, so I'm fairly experienced. I'd love to help you set up your article! Please tell me whether or not you would be interested in me helping on my Talk Page as I could help you as much, or as little as you wanted! Hope I can help!

Will do
[edit]Hi, I have an exam tomorrow, but then do not have any for a couple of weeks, so some time within the next week, I'll have a good look through that page and get back to you. Asics talk Editor review! 15:46, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Had a look through
[edit]Looks like it will be good! Just a few pointer:
- Complete the infobox that I have started for you... information about what each part of it means can be found here
- Make into proper section, i.e. introduction, biography, findings, references, external links.
- Reference each part correctly... I notice you have some references on the bottom but they need to be linked to the correct parts. Try and get as many as these as possible, because they are vital if you want your article to be seen as useful, and avoid deletion.
- For the last two, have a look at this article I created, here, as it has both the reference use, and the correct ordering.
I hope this helps you for starters. When you've done these things, get back to me and I'll have a look at the improvement and give you some more pointers if necessary. Any questions, just ask me, and I'll help you in any way I can! Asics talk Editor review! 11:47, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Commercial use of Image:Thomas Royds.jpg
[edit]Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Thomas Royds.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Thomas Royds.jpg is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).
If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.
If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.
If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:Thomas Royds.jpg itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 15:15, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
My thoughts on the image
[edit]I'm not too good on copyright. However, if the image was taken before 1st January 1912 in can qualify as Template:PD-US.
If it was used as a promotional shot, put Template:Non-free promotional
If you are unsure of the copyright, it may be best to put Template:Non-free unsure with a detailed description of why you believe the image to be non-replacable, and how it should only be used to represent Thomas Royds. For the last two mentioned a website where it was found would need to be included.
If non of these copyrights are applicable, please send me a message with further detail on how you came about the image etc.
The page looks much better. This is not necessary, although it may be useful if their was a section, perhaps at the bottom, that said "discoveries" or "achievments".
Then the reference tag needs to be used this is where you put after something <ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Asics Asics told me this]</ref> instead of the references at the bottom. This helps people find out which bits are cited and which bits aren't. If more than one bit is cited from the same place, use <ref name="Sausage">{{cite web|url=http://www.sausage.com/|title=Sausage place|accessdate=2007-05-28|publisher=Sausage incorporated|author=Sausage}}</ref> and where it needs to be used again put <ref name="Sausage"/>. Then at the end of the page under the references section put <references/>. (A full list of the templates can be found here) This would look like:
Hello
[edit]Asics said hello[1]
Asics said sausage[2]
Asics said sausage again[2]
