Hello Bonjour Buenos días

Dave Of Stoft and...

Welcome Bienvenue Bienvenido/Bienvenida

to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia!

Wikipedia is a free-content encyclopedia written in over 250 languages by thousands of users like you and me from all walks of life. As a member of the Welcoming Committee, I would like to say thanks for being a part of this project. Here are some links to help you, the new user, on your Wikipedia journey: Introduction Sandbox Editing a page Bootcamp Manual of Style Five pillars Whether you're new to the project or have helped us for a while, remember to use edit summaries when you're done with a page. Summaries are important because, with those, other editors will understand what you have done with the content. REMEMBER: think twice before clicking "Save page" below the editing box, since whatever you write in the summary box will permamently go in the history of any page. (Spellchecking is important; you cannot change the summary data after you have finished editing.) Remember, also, to sign your name with four tildes (~~~~) or by pressing this button () above the box, whenever leaving comments on talk pages. If you want to know how you're doing on Wikipedia, feel free to check out your list of contributions. If you don't know how to do something, type {{helpme}} on your talk page, and administrators will come to solve your problems. After you've stayed here for a while, you might want to take an editor review, or, even better, take a chance at adminship. Wherever the journey takes you, I wish you the best of luck and respect on Wikipedia. If you have any questions about my expertise or this site, you can e-mail me or talk to me, and I will see about the situation as best as possible. In the meantime, happy editing!

Fair use rationale for File:Battlefieldbritain.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Battlefieldbritain.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. FASTILY ^(TALK) 00:48, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for helping me with the link to the Wikipedia:Non-free_use_rationale_guideline page. I'm very new to wikipedia and I'm finding it difficult to understand all of the things I need to add etc. Once i've added the information you have requested would you be prepared to check the tag and advise me of any mistakes? Thanks. Dave Of Stoft (talk) 08:57, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi Dave Of Stoft, I reviewed your edit to File:Battlefieldbritain.jpg. It looks good except for the fact that under the "replaceable?" section, you claimed the image to be a book cover. I have fixed that problem - except for than that, there really aren't any other problems. Happy Editing, FASTILY ^(TALK) 23:01, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Ah, my bad. Removed the tag -FASTILY ^(TALK) 02:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
