[edit] License tagging for Image:Suzlonlogo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Suzlonlogo.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:07, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] {{Renewable-energy-stub}} / Cat:Renewable energy stubs

Hey. You created this stub type out of process. New stubs must first be discussed at WP:WSS. I have listed your creation at the Discoveries page and a discussion will now take place there and possibly also at WP:SFD. Thanks. - crz crztalk 17:07, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Severn Barrage

Inwind, why did you remove the Severn Barrage from Category:Renewable energy ? Are you saying that tidal is now a renewable source? Fig 10:10, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bhagavad Gita

Hi Inwind, I can see what you were aiming at but I honestly think that in this case the picture looks better in the introduction with the Hindu Scriptures banner in the scriptures section for those who want to look further. Yours sincerely, Gouranga(UK) 11:34, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Grigori Rasputin

Hi. I think you were trying to make a productive edit, but it looks like maybe in this change to Grigori Rasputin you may have ignored an edit conflict and accidentally reintroduced some vandalism. You might want to take a look at it (and at surrounding edits) and try to figure out what went wrong. (I'm fixing it.)

[edit] Re: United Kingdom

Hi Inwind, well I understand your reasons now but it is very wrong. You can rewrite some paragraph in summary style if you want to make article shorter but you can never remove valid reference. A) It doesn't make article shorter - only source code is shorter and it isn't really an issue - references and oher sources should not be counted into article lenght because they are not part of main text and so they don't make the actual reading take longer time. And B) references are needed to reference the text. If you want to verify a statement you are not going to go through the entire Wikipedia to see if it is cited somewhere else. I hope I clarified it a bit. Thank you.--Pethr 17:49, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Replying on other user' talk page is pretty common practice because you're notified about new message and you don't have to be so awfully carefull about watching user talk in your watchlist. But of course I don't mind or anything. Best --Pethr 22:55, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Finite Element Method

Hi. Note that Category:Finite Element Method should be instead Category:Finite element method, in lowercase, per Wikipedia style. You can reply here if you have comments. Cheers, Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 16:10, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Done Inwind 16:25, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. But you actually need to go and edit each article in Category:Finite Element Method to make it appear in Category:Finite element method. After that I can delete Category:Finite Element Method. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 03:09, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Seems a rather awkward process. I should hope that a script exists to do this automatically.Inwind 03:15, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Nope, unfortunately. Either you fix it, or somebody else will have to do it. I can write a bot to do this particular renaming, but writing and debugging such a program would take more time than doing it by hand. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 03:43, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tool

Hi, I was wondering what the point of your first first change in [1] is? It looks to me like having "This article is about a tool used as a piece of equipment. For the American progressive rock band, see Tool (band). For other uses, see Tool (disambiguation)." at the top of the article is a good idea, especially as looking at the disambiguation page, the band is likely to be the main "non-hammer" reason to go to the Tool page.
