Image:Clonmacnoise Cathedral.jpg

Hi Shermozle, That's a truly stunning photo, congratulations! But the building perched precariously on the mound is in fact the castle, not the cathedral, so I changed the title in the Clonmacnoise article, but perhaps you should rectify it elsewhere also.Blorgina 17:19, 30 March 2006 (UTC) Also I just noticed, that's not the main round tower at Clonmacnoise, but the small round tower which is part of Temple Finghin, a later 12th c building. So I altered that title also in the Clonmacnoise article. You must have got there just about sunset - I always think it's beautiful then as the heritage centre is shut and you can be all alone without the 21st century impinging.Blorgina 17:25, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. Yes, we were there after the heritage centre had closed so we didn't really know what we were looking at. I've updated the image descriptions. Shermozle 17:36, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

That's not Japanese breadcrumbs but Korean. Those letters written on the bag are hangul. --222.3.79.41 18:15, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Indeed it is Hangul, but I think the standard description for the category would be "Japanese Breadcrumbs", no? Shermozle 18:26, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Chernobyl photo

I didn't take the photo. I have no idea what the weird plants near the orange flowers are. Sorry. Edward 19:14, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

I was there and saw the things. They are some ceramic art objects, their only purpose seems to be there and look ugly. --Shaddack 04:39, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Backpacking

Hello, I noticed you seem to like Backpacking and was wondering if you'd be interested in WikiProject Backpacking, a new project geared towards improving backpacking related articles on Wikipedia. If you'd like to join, show support by signing your name at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals#Backpacking and by helping to edit our beta project page at User:Leif902/WikiProject Backpacking. Thank you, and have a nice day! -Leif902 00:43, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

I see you have self-identified as a backpacker by using the ”This user enjoys backpacking” userbox. I invite you to join the backpacking project. It recently reactivated. There is plenty of good work to do improving the encyclopedia’s coverage of backpacking equipment, organizations, celebrities, books, skills, and trails. The project provides a system to rate articles and prioritize editing efforts. Visit the project’s page, take a look, and please consider joining me in improving the articles and coverage of an activity we both enjoy.

Image:Turbonegro_by_Stian_Andersen_2005-03.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Turbonegro_by_Stian_Andersen_2005-03.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 21:18, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Errr, it's an image from a press kit. That's the point of press kit images!
