A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Headingley.JPG. The copy called Image:Headingley.JPG has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action. This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and remember exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads.

It looks like this: The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature. Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. BlueValour 02:15, 19 May 2007 (UTC) RevertedHi! Just a short message to let you know I have reverted your last edit to the Meltham article. The external links only needed to be corrected, the Textron page location had changed and the David Brown Tractor Club has a new Website. Additionally I have deleted the sports person John Stead from the notables list. There was consensus some time back that the list was to large. BlueValour created the category Category:People from Huddersfield to use instead, which allows far more names to be added. Richard Harvey 23:44, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi! I've moved the images on the page back into gallery format. When I originally uploaded them I spread them around the page within the various sections they related to as normally seen in a hard copy encyclopaedia. However over time this proves to be a problem with the page layout. Often with image frames overlapping text, depending on the readers monitor resolution and varying text edits. Thus the images end up being constantly resized, or moved around the page, depending on individual editors preferences. Consensus has shown that one large image near the top of the page, often in the infobox unless it makes it to long, with the others lower down the page in gallery format allows text to flow, without the constant need to keep re-editing the individual images. I used to get frustrated trying to keep redoing the page formats to let the images be seen easily, until a senior editor advised: "This isn't a hard copy book, so the page format is not the same". Richard Harvey 09:05, 16 June 2007 (UTC) Hello. I have seen the table you are in the middle of placing on the Sheffield speedway page. Looks good. Can I make one suggestion though. Instead of putting the rider biographies on that page, can you make the wiki artciles for each of the riders and link to those instead. The bios really aren't relevant to the Sheffield team page and there is a template about for rider pages. Will probably be quicker for you in the long run. I will eventually get round to doing them but its slow going. This may interest you too .. {{User:Radzinski/SpeedwayFan}} Hammer1980 14:14, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I like the squad template. I have been working out how to do that myself but I dont understand all that techie stuff !! I have showed you good work to another editor who made the speedway templates and asked him if he could make a dedicated speedway template based on yours. Hope you don't mind. I would then add to all the riders so far. Maybe each team should have its own year template ? What do you think? Hammer1980 22:17, 24 July 2007 (UTC) Cheers. Thats what I based the speedway one on, football, then Foxhill made it a generic speedway one. You a Tigers fan I take it ? Hammer1980 22:22, 24 July 2007 (UTC) I added sources on your new articles so they don't get tagged for speedy deletion ! Hammer1980 22:44, 24 July 2007 (UTC) Squad template made by Foxhill. I have edited the Sheffield template to the new code. It works really well. He has made your good design easuer for idiots like me to use ! Hammer1980 13:42, 25 July 2007 (UTC) You think its worth putting the squad templates on the relevant club pages too ? Hammer1980 22:16, 25 July 2007 (UTC) SiblingsI have to say I'm not convinced the Sporting Siblings category is an encyclopedic way to organize articles on Wikipedia. Could you outline your reasons for creating the category? I've already removed several individuals who do not have a sibling verified as notable, and this could be a recurring problem. Deiz talk 11:08, 28 July 2007 (UTC) Scott AutreySorry didn't realise !! Didn't notice it was alphabetical either !! I have put some of the refernce links in your latest rider posts so they are not deleted but have nothing for Charlie Venegas. Have you got a ref we can add ? Hammer1980 23:46, 31 July 2007 (UTC) CatGood work on adding siblinbgs and removing single articles.. maybe it has a future. FYI your page on Charle Venegas looks fine, simple details, establishes notability, appropriate external link. Deiz talk 00:52, 1 August 2007 (UTC) Younis / YounusHi Joe, the reason I changed the spelling is purely down to the name of the WP article, spelt Younis. Cricinfo and CricketArchive (the two main resources used by WP:CRIC) also have him listed as Younis. The fact that Khan himself spells it Younus is what's stopped me from changing it again, so thanks for bringing that to my attention. AMBerry (talk | contribs) 23:15, 11 August 2007 (UTC) InfoboxesHi. I see you've set up a new infobox for current Test cricketers which includes biographical details. I've raised this at WT:CRIC, where there has been considerable previous discussion about infoboxes and where WP:CRIC members may have views. There are a few thousand past and present Test cricketers, so getting the project's consensus on this is probably wise, because all of the bios should, as far as possible, be similar in layout. It'd be good to hear from you on the project talk page why you think this is a beneficial change and what proposals you have for rolling this out across the other cricket bios. BTW, I see from your updated Monty Panesar that the info is said to be correct to today's date. I'm unclear whether that means you've included the stats from the current England v India match or not. The past convention has been to wait for the match to be concluded before updating stats of this kind to avoid confusion. Your infoboxes on the English county cricket clubs are, in my view, very good. This new one looks good too, but let's get a consensus on it. Johnlp 22:05, 12 August 2007 (UTC) InfoboxHi Joe, Can you take a look at my attempt at expanding the infobox, User:Mdcollins1984/Sandbox3, demo here. Ignoring the flag issue, if you like the International section, and the improved clubnumber function (reducing the space issues) it might be an idea to merge it back to the original template, to ease the discussion at WP:CRIC. Best, –MDCollins (talk) 12:42, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
Looks fine to me as it is there. :) May still be a bit big when put in to action proper, but it's probably a better way of doing it full stop, even without formatting issues etc. AllynJ 14:41, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
Have updated the documentation. I've also tweaked various bits of code to make it easier to manage, and more intuitive to implement. Watch out for small {{{field}}} changes, such as the removal of the 'domestic' option (it is now coded from the international function, one 'deliveries = balls/overs, removing the need for two separate options, and probably a few others. When you've had a look and checked it through, feel free to take it back to WT:CRIC. Well done. –MDCollins (talk) 13:04, 16 August 2007 (UTC) Hi - just a pointer, when implementing the 'box, you might want a slightly more informative edit summary, such as 'Implement new infobox, see WT:CRIC, incase anyone has missed the discussion and tries to revert. Keep going lad, not too many more to go... </sighs>. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mdcollins1984 (talk • contribs) 23:19:10, August 19, 2007 (UTC).
