Hello, Penmachine.
Welcome to Wikipedia ! And thank you for sharing your loving photographs. :-)
I just wanna remind you that according to Wikipedia:Captions, complete sentences are preferred in the image captions. I am not making you do anything, but as an admin here, I thought I should point that out to you. If you like, you may also want to submit your pages to Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions and let the wikipedians there work on the captions.
Happy editing. :-)

Thanks! I didn't know about the complete sentences, and will do my best to make them so for subsequent captions.

[edit] Germany#History
Hi, and welcome here!
The history section of country articles is thought to highlight the most important aspects sumarized in a couple of paragraphs (ideally four or five paragraphs of modest length). For most countries, at least for the better known, there are specific articles on history, linked to by the phrase Main article: History of Germany right below the headline. This is outlined in Wikipedia:WikiProject Countries.
In principle, it's our objective that the history section of the country article is a well balanced summary of the history article, but this is a policy that we not always have energy to live up to.
As a rule of thumb, it may be a good policy to remove as much text from the history section of the country article as is added.
best regards!

Lost your additions in the shuffle... will fold 'em in...
[edit] Image copyright tags
Thanks for uploading Image:NewWestminsterPattullo.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, Tagishsimon (talk) 16:27, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image:MetrotownStation.jpg
I wondered if you could relicence this image, as non-commercial is non-free. Cheers. Burgundavia 16:27, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
Anyone wanting to make commercial use of the image is welcome to ask me, but depending on how they propose to make money with it, I may wish to be compensated. Anyone using it non-commercially is free to go to town. So it's true, it's not free, but that's fine with me. Penmachine (talk) 08:45, Apr 24, 2005 (PDT)
Seeing that Wikipedia is now deleting non-commercial-only images, I have now modified the license to be attribution only. Penmachine (talk) 22:43, Jun 4, 2005 (PDT)
[edit] Image:NewWestminsterPattullo.jpg
Thanks for your image! I have copied it to the Wiki Commons ( http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:NewWestminsterPattullo.jpg ), so that it can be used in other Wiki projects as well. I would encourage you to post your images in the future to Wiki Commons instead of English Wiki, as they will get wider exposure this way. Vmenkov 08:30, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
