From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] February 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. The links you have added to numerous articles concerning Cheshire this morning do not conform with the advice about allowable ELs. They are being reverted. You should read WP:EL for guidance on this. If you persist, you could be issued with warning notices about being disruptive, and so it would be best to avoid that happening. I hope you can contribute with more substantive material to articles.  DDStretch  (talk) 13:24, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Macclesfield-forum-screenshot.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Macclesfield-forum-screenshot.png. 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. Melesse (talk) 11:21, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
