Zelda PopkinBefore you made your comment, it was my impression that she had been largely forgotten -- there haven't been any new editions of her books for decades, and that was my rule of thumb. But then I read the entry under her name and started to reconsider; she was better-known than I'd thought. If you want to change this reference, let me know, or just change it to what you want it to read, and I'll find another name to substitute if necessary. BTW, I think Rex Stout's Dol Bonner novels are closely related, if you haven't found those ("The Hand in the Glove, among others").

GreenJoe 15:57, 31 July 2007 (UTC) Hi graham, I haven't been on wiki for a while but I see that you've been hard at work expanding some of the pages I created: Bramerton, Kirby Bedon, Claxton etc. Good stuff. Interested in your Bramerton Pits article. Cheers C1self Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun! SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping. If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker. P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 22:02, 2 November 2007 (UTC) defaultsort vs lifetimeInstead of using defaultsort for articles on people could you use {{Lifetime}}?

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 NoticeHi, As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid. We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded. You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets. We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page! Addbot (talk) 19:29, 30 August 2008 (UTC) You removed my picture and replaced with a zoomed out view of the first edition. However, I think the one that I orginally had in their was more aestethetically pleasing. Is there a policy about first editions having to be pictured, or why, why would that be more favorable.--Robert Waalk (talk) 18:17, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
NiceNice first edition cover @ The Burnt Ones. :) Julia Rossi (talk) 08:23, 19 October 2008 (UTC) First edition coversI know not much thanks is issued around here - but I would like to send my appreciation of your work in providing 1st edition cover for books and novels. I have noticed and although my more recent images are largely being replaced that is how it should be. Thanks. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:18, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
Saint coversGood work on the Saint covers. I don't know if you have admin privileges or not, but if you do you have permission to delete any images I've uploaded that you replace with first editions (it saves me getting bot messages like those above!). If you aren't an admin you can effectively do the same thing by using the same file name (if it's applicable). Cheers! 23skidoo (talk) 14:22, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
Replaceable fair use Image:Resurrection.jpgThanks for uploading Image:Resurrection.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself. If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Garion96 (talk) 10:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
HipposTechnically And the Hippos Were Boiled in Their Tanks doesn't have the correct first-edition cover. It has the UK edition cover, but it is an American release, so it should use the white-colored cover as used by Grove Press. Cheers! 23skidoo (talk) 18:15, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
File:Resurrection.jpg listed for deletionAn image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Resurrection.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Garion96 (talk) 15:24, 12 December 2008 (UTC) ImagesSorry for the late response, wasn't online much lately. Regarding flat images. Basically yes, when there is no creativity, basically a scan, there is no new copyright. That was the reason the Age of Innocense image was deleted. Regarding the other images, AnneOfAvonlea.jpg and AnneOfTheIslandCover.jpg. They were originally tagged as fair use (non-free content). If they are indeed images of public domain editions then the images can be undeleted. Message me if they are and I will undelete them.

St George's College, Weybridge also usese the same term for its alumni, and it's quite probable that some fo the other St George's Colleges do too. It might be better to rename the KGV one Old Georgians (KGV) instead, what do you think? David Underdown (talk) 20:24, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Harrington (surname), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Harrington. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally moving or duplicating content, please be sure you have followed the procedure at Wikipedia:Splitting by acknowledging the duplication of material in edit summary to preserve attribution history. This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

(It doesn't, and this article is ten years old, and has some other errors.). Because I pretty thoroughly researched her, and Jerry Oppenheimer's unauthorized biography, the only decent source for her early life, is pretty explicit that she attended only North London Collegiate and went to work in fashion before she was even twenty. I have come across nothing suggesting she went to Queen's (she worked at Harper's & Queen briefly, which may have caused the confusion). Daniel Case (talk) 16:34, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Also, they don't give terribly much about the actual book itself. For example, there's the question of edition. You're giving the publication year as 1955, which is that of the first edition; but I've never seen one of those in the wild; most copies in libraries or available secondhand are second or third editions (1966 and 1976). There is also a fourth (1982) edition, which seems rare: but I just happen to have owned one since about 1984. The 3rd and 4th were published after Rolt's death, and have revisions and additional material by Geoffrey Kichenside. Kichenside later wrote his own book on railway accidents, some parts of which were based on the material that he'd provided for the 3rd and 4th editions of "Red for Danger". His text was later removed from RfD, so virtually all copies sold new since the early 1990s (including the current June 2009 printing, ISBN 978 0 7524 5106 0) are essentially the second edition. I'd like to amend the refs, so that they will show more detail about the book yet won't take up much more space. I've already done that to South Croydon rail crash, but with only one reference per book, it's not too clear what I mean. You can see an example of the style that I'd like to use in Hinksey Halt railway station, where some books have several cited refs. If you suggest a section within List of rail accidents in the United Kingdom for me to have a bash at, I'll amend it along those lines, and then you can see what you think. --Redrose64 (talk) 21:27, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

HotCatHi Graham. You seem to have got the category bug big time! I know from experience that this can lead to large numbers of edits in a short period. Were you aware of the 'HotCat' tool? You may find that it speeds up your categorising (unless you are applying multiple categories.) It allows you to add, remove or replace categories without opening the page for editing. It also does an automatic edit summary (which is useful for other editors, since they can see that it is a HotCat edit and, probably, ignore it). HotCat is available from 'my preferences-->Gadgets-->Editing gadgets'. Keep up the good work! Cheers -- EdJogg (talk) 10:55, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
DyceWas the closed in 1903 category a typo? The infobox states closed: 2 October 1965. --Tagishsimon (talk) 20:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
Addition of Categories for Station opening and closing datesI support your addition of these categories but in some cases, for stations whose history I am familiar with, your changes are somewhat misleading or even confusing. Specifically listing Grosmont as opening in 1865 could be said to be wrong since only the Esk Valley line platform was opened on that date. The original station at Grosmont opened under the name Tunnel in 1835, this station was rebuilt and given two platforms and reopened in 1847, now named Grosmont since the village of that name had developed around the original station. The dates for Beckhole are even more complicated, originally officially opened in 1836 (although it may have been in use during the previous year), it closed to passengers only in 1865, becoming a terminus station at the same time. It reopened to passengers in 1908 closing to passengers on the outbreak of WW1 in 1914 but it remained open for goods for some time, losing that service at some so far unrecorded date as the branch serving it was gradually truncated as the individual private sidings it served were closed, the last fragment of the branch was closed in the early 1950's.

Cowlairs East Rail Collision ('List of United Kingdom rail accidents by death toll' page)Hello there. I thought I had copied those figures directly from the official accident report as published on the Railways Archive website (http://www.railwaysarchive.co.uk/documents/MoT_CowlairsEast1942.pdf), but on checking it again I seem to have somehow managed to get them completely wrong, for reasons which I cannot now comprehend...

How can a hotel be established, which tends to mean open, when it still has not been finished? I suggest that you limit the hotels established category to when they were actually opened like all of the other established in categories. If you are trying to use the Category:yyyy architecture categories I advise extreme caution since those contents need cleaning up. In moving the contents from there to more specific categories I have found many errors or incorrect assignments to actual years.

Removing Book covers not showing up on the pages you are adding them toHi Graham. Thanks for uploading book cover images to Wikipedia. Unfortunately, none of the cover images you have added to articles are showing up in those articles because you have not followed the template precisely. Please note that the infobox template for books requires that the format for images conform exactly to this style: [[Image:FirstPageGreenGables.gif|200px|Cover]]. That is, there must be a descriptor word or phrase at the end, after an "|" character. Without that, the image will not show up on Wikipedia. Could you please go back and correct all of the images you have uploaded, so that they will appear in the infoboxes? Right now, all that appears is a large empty space and a non-existent image character. Lastly, please remember to check "Show preview" on any page you edit on Wikipedia before you click "Save page".

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:HellBarbusse.jpgThank you for uploading File:HellBarbusse.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale. If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Acather96 (talk) 20:17, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
Book covers re: Stephen CraneHi GrahamHardy, I noticed that you recently uploaded book covers of several Stephen Crane works, including ones for The Red Badge of Courage, The Open Boat, and others. For the time being, I've removed the covers to these two works for several reasons. First, the latter is an FA and the other is currently at FAC, so the presence of any Fair-Use image may prove problematic. Second, your source (to AbeBooks) is not conclusive, mainly because the site is user-generated. Unless I'm wrong? Can you prove that these images are in fact the first US editions? I believe this to be the case for the Red Badge cover, but the Open Boat cover seems odd, especially since it doesn't include the full, original title of the work. Another issue is that you've tagged these works as being Fair-Use when, if they are in fact first edition publications, they would be in the public domain in the US because they pre-date 1923. Phew, lots of points. :) If you can clear up any of these issues, let me know! María (habla conmigo) 02:00, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

I just wanted to let you know that I replaced this fair-use image with a pic of the first edition title page. The first edition looks like it had no dust jacket cover, so I figured the title page was the best choice. --INeverCry 06:24, 31 August 2011 (UTC) Orphaned non-free image File:WinesburgOhio.jpgThanks for uploading File:WinesburgOhio.jpg.

Disambiguation link notification (for GrahamHardy)Hi, this message is to let you know about disambiguation links you've recently created. A link to a disambiguation page is almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles.

See User:SpeakFree/Schiedam train disaster. If you have anything to contribute, please feel welcome to do so. I also created the article nl:Treinramp bij Schiedam on Dutch Wikipedia. BTW I live very near to the location where it happened so I might take a picture of the surroundings once I figure out where it exactly happened (I have a general idea based on the NOS video but all the buildings in it aren't there anymore AFAIKS), maybe a panorama like on Harmelen train disaster.
