[edit] C. S. Lewis
Hi. Wikipedia has an article on C. S. Lewis. It seems that you created an article called C.S.Lewis (note there are no spaces after periods), so probably, it was speedy deleted. utcursch | talk 07:47, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Jesuit Alumni
Hi I've put something on the articles Talk Page. You're right. My previous move was not really satisfactory.

[edit] Religion in the United Kingdom
Thanks for the comment. It seemed to me that perhaps the role of Henry VIII of England was overstressed in an article about Religion in the United Kingdom - his influence in Scotland, for example, being less than crucial. Further, there is a question as to the extent to which Henry led the demands for reform of the Church (remembering that he was Fidei defensor) or finally climbed on a long-rolling bandwagon for dynastic and political reasons. I'd leave the wording fairly neutral so the reader may refer to articles such as History of the Church of England. Man vyi 15:06, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:Roy evans.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Roy evans.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairusein|article name}} or {{fairuse}}. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much. --SCEhardT 23:33, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Copyright
Your original version of the Ceiriog Valley article contained a lot of material lifted from http://www.ceiriog.com/, with no assertion of permission. After removing some of it as being biased (which is OK on its original site, but not on wikipedia) I have rephrased the rest. Please don't insert copyrighted material into articles. Thanks.
