Thanks for uploading Image:Vanbrugh.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Christopher Cocksworth

Please not that Christopher Cocksworth has not yet been consecrated as a bishop, therefore he is not yet a Right Revd. The consecration is scheduled for 3/7. David Underdown (talk) 14:31, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lord Jay of Ewelme

Thanks for adding the Styles section to the article. It would be even better with dates and references! He apparently received the GCMG in 2006 [1] and according to the New Year Honours 1997, he received the KCMG in 1997, and was indeed already a CMG - however, you should look up the relevent page in the London Gazette to confirm this. You can also look back to find out when he was made a CMG. It's much better if you can research all the information, rather than adding it with question marks (and guessing that he was a CMG). One hint when searching for this kind of information is to Google full names, Michael Hastings Jay, as that's only used in official lists such as honours announcements.

Peerages, Baronetcies and Knighthoods

Please note that on Wikipedia we do not add lower peerage titles that have been superseded by higher ones inline. Nor do we add baronetcies if the individual also holds a peerage or knighthoods if he holds a baronetcy or peerage. These can be described in the body of the article, but not listed inline. Thanks. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:17, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of New Year Honours 2009

I have nominated New Year Honours 2009, an article you created, for deletion.

Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Speedy deletion of "Margaret Ford, Baroness Ford"

A page you created, Margaret Ford, Baroness Ford, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Miquonranger03 (talk) 18:40, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Warwickshirepct.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Warwickshirepct.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 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) 16:03, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lord Mandelson?

Out of interst, what is your source for him taking the title Baron Mandelson, of Hendon in the City of London, seeing as it hasn't been gazetted yet? JRawle (Talk) 23:34, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Alick Buchanan-Smith, Baron Balerno

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Fullstop (talk) 19:59, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Biographyinfo! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 156 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Francis Brand, 7th Viscount Hampden - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Jane Williams, Baroness Williams of Elvel - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
