[edit] Eagles

Hello - Nice additions to the Eagles page! Wanted to ask you if this stuff is coming from some source(s) that you can put up citations from - the article is light on footnotes. Also- it's helpful to other editors when there are a few words in edit summaries (you'll see the place for them right below the edit screen)- ao they can track changes. Finally - it looks like you've run into the wiki photopolice - when you upload pictures you have to indicate where you got them from (source), choose a license tag (if they are album covers, you would click on that, otherwise you have to come up with appropriate wording) and you need to indicate your "fair use rationale". They tend to be unforgiving on this - take a look at [1]] and [2] for the general approach. If you don't tag the pictures, they will certainly be deleted. Anyway - good to have you working on the article! If you haven't heard the BBC interview, I think you would enjoy it - it's available on MP3s at [3] - 10 segments, good quality.

[edit] Pictures, summaries and citations

Hi Brentgz- You haven't responded to the notes left here for you, so I am going to try again.

You need to properly tag the pictures you've uploaded or they will for certain be automatically deleted from the system and all the work you're doing in including them will be wasted, plus someone will have to go through the article to delete the dead tags. I didn't make the policy and I don't necessarily agree with it, but unfortunately it is the way it is.

As for edit summaries - it really would be helpful for the other people working on the page to be able to easily track changes - it takes maybe two seconds for you to add them, and others benefit. At least if you would edit by section (there are little "edit" buttons throughout the article) rather than use "edit this page", the section titles will be automatically transferred to the edit summaries which will help the other editors. You're adding some good material which is really appreciated, but as a collaborative effort others want to follow the changes.

And finally, I asked you above if you could provide citations when you are adding material - the article needs more footnoting overall and since you must be using sources of some kind to get these details, it would be great if you would reference those sources. It is difficult to go back and re-create them later on, so while you're editing is a good time to include them. If you need help in figuring out the reference system, or you don't have time to do it just ask - or post them on Talk: Eagles and someone will do it for you.

Thanks very much! -Tvoz | talk 00:28, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
