Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Isle of Man TT/British Grand Prix

Your deletion of my rather considerable contribution was not fair and wrong, I think. First of all- in case you didn't know- the Isle of Man TT was pretty much the British motorcycle Grand Prix from 1949-1976. It was part of what is now the MotoGP calendar during that time. So that's why I put that there, because there is no other article listing all the winners of that race when it was part of the international championship. And I imagine you would know but anyway the Isle of Man is one of the dependencies belonging to the United Kingdom. I would like to revert your edit, what you did was really not right. --76.95.132.85 (talk) 08:15, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Article Feedback deployment

Hey Readro; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so. On Thursday and Friday the tool will be down for a major deployment; it should be up by Saturday, failing anything going wrong, and by Monday if something does :). Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:04, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

2013 Americas GP

Sorry if I take your time, I'd like to clarify why I put Ret rather than NC for Márquez and Baldassarri: usually the MotoGP reports say "Not Classified" for riders who retired from the race. In this case we put Ret in the tables, while we give NC to riders who finished the race crossing the line in the pitlane or who took the chequered flag but did not complete enough laps. Márquez and Baldassarri are in first case because these are normal retirements due to crashes, and they didn't take the chequered flag. Maybe the fact of the red flag misled you but also Petrucci, Pesek and Edwards in MotoGP are "Not Classified" in the official report but we use Ret for them as well, not NC, and we do this for every race. –Gpmat (talk) 18:35, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

'Abandoned' template documentation subpage

Hi. Could you please delete or otherwise cleanup User:Readro/GPtemplate/doc? It appears to be unused, and is cluttering up Category:Documentation subpages without corresponding pages. Thanks. Revent (talk) 22:12, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:March BMW Marc Surer.JPG)

Thanks for uploading File:March BMW Marc Surer.JPG. 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 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. Werieth (talk) 17:13, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

Singapore Marina Bay Street Circuit diagram

You appear to have added the following:

The Italian motorcycle Grand Prix is a motorcycling event that is part of the Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. Before 1991, Italy had previously held a round of the world championship, known as the Nations Grand Prix.

in this edit back in 2006.

Is there any historical source for the Italian motorcycle Grand Prix being called Nations Grand Prix? And if so, in what countries/languages? It does not Google, except for Wikipedia and Motogp.com - is the latter where you sourced it, from a modern website, almost qualifying as self-published? Further compounding the confusion is a redirect created by @Orsoni: which is just bouncing around to itself.

It started out with me intending to simply add an image to a BLP (with a caption 2nd place to Mike Hailwood, Italian Grand Prix) and not recognising the infobox link, formatted as [[Italian motorcycle Grand Prix|Nations Grand Prix}}, but so far I've spent 30 minutes checking period mags, books and net, trying to understand the basis for this, because I suspect something's wrong here. Is there any historically-provable, hard-copy basis? Am I missing a subtle connection somewhere? Thanks.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 15:01, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

I can see you've logged in a couple of times recently - I would still like any comments on this Nations Grand Prix which I couldn't verify. Thank you.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 20:26, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
Much obliged for the info to my talk page - certainly is convincing and I appreciate the lengths you've gone to in providing the different sources. I've had a quick look and will digest it further later. I only found the motogp.com reference and I am sceptical about most websites. I can understand you not doing much on Wikipedia as I am, too, curtailing my activities during 2015 with just a little prose, mostly adding citations, images and logos. Thanks and regards.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 22:56, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
