Principal Area Templates: Neath Port Talbot & Bridgend

Hi Geaugagrrl, I've filled the Bridgend template as best I can and it has been taken out of the deletion process. I've filled in the Neath Port Talbot template, but as I began distributing it, it appears there are already several templates for the region, and we are now doubling up. Any ideas on how to progress this? FruitMonkey (talk) 21:09, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

It seems to be a free-for-all on templates. There were none when I first designed this group (that I could easily find), now there appears to be many. It is usually a group decision which template takes precedent. Thanks so much for all your help. A posting to the Wales Project page asking for input of what others think would possibly be helpful. ~Geaugagrrl ^talk 20:12, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

Copyright problem on Kingdom of Ceredigion

Hey Geaugagrrl, just letting you know that I filed a notice for the issues at Kingdom of Ceredigion on copyright problems. I know you didn't intend to break the copyright rules, I just wanted to get some more knowledgeable eyes than mine on it. Hopefully this can be resolved with a simple rewrite.--Cúchullain ^t/c 13:46, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

As I said on the article talk page, the author of the article gave full permission for it to be published. He did not want a major re-write. ~Geaugagrrl ^talk 02:49, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Chapels etc

Hi. May I humbly enquire about the usage 'Cille Aeron', vis-a-vis 'Ciliau Aeron'? Is it a recently adopted (well justified) phonetic transition? Also, the Unitarian chapel there is called (Capel) Neuaddlwyd (or Neuadd Lwyd). Some of my 19th-century ancestors got married there. Mysteriously, they seem later to have bolted back to orthodoxy at nearby St Non's, Llanerchaeron. Cheers Bjenks (talk) 15:42, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for the delayed response. I will investigate and let you know what I learn. All my non-conformist relations apparently stayed that way according to all my research :-) Bye for now. ~Geaugagrrl ^talk 16:03, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Here's the response I received:

CILIAU AERON is the only correct spelling. The local Welsh pronunciation is *Kilye, with the accent on the first syllable, and the second pronounced ::with a very short 'e'. The chapel at Neuaddlwyd (correct spelling) was NEVER Unitarian. It has been since its foundation in 1810 a Congregationalist ::(Independent) congregation, with an academy for training ministers and missionaries, which has long closed, but produced the first missionaries to ::Madagascar. Hope this helps. ~Geaugagrrl ^talk 13:06, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Many thanks for your pains. And (oops) you're quite right about the chapel. I was confusing it with the rather architecturally similar nearby Unitarian Capel y Groes at Llwynygroes, Llanwnnen, with which some of my family were also associated. According to , there also is or was one somewhere at Ciliau Aeron. Cheers Bjenks (talk) 04:25, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Hi, would you be so kind as to give us support!

Hello, I hope you're doing fine and I sincerely apologize for this intrusion. My name's Claudi Balaguer (User Capsot from the Catalan Wikipedia and Occitan Wikiccionari) I've just read your profile and since you're Welsh I suppose you know very well what are a minorized language and culture and maybe I am not bothering you and you will help us... (I'm glad your culture and nation can provide people like Hywel Williams!) I'm a member of a Catalan association "Amical de la Viquipèdia" which is trying to get some recognition as a Catalan Chapter but this hasn't been approved up to this moment because Catalan is not supported by a state even though our Association is working real hard. We would appreciate your support, visible if you stick this on your first page: Wikimedia CAT and/or sign the list of "Members and Supporters" that can be reached through the link inside the template. Thanks again/diolch for your attention, I wish you a wonderful, warm and sunny summer, take care! Capsot (talk) 13:40, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Evan Vaughan Anwyl

I don't think you'd want me to comment at that AfD, as I'd be supporting (at best) a merge and redirect. (1) The fact that the article appeared at DYK is no bar against subsequent deletion or merger. (2) The article is mainly about his family history, not him. What there is about him boils down to a couple of lines, from only one source, and the fact that he doesn't claim the titles. That doesn't pass WP:BASIC for me, and I don't think there's a presumption on Wikipedia that pretenders to thrones or princely positions (especially non-claiming pretenders) are inherently notable. Regards, Bencherlite^Talk 20:23, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, Bencherlite. I understand your point. I know that contact has been made with Evan Vaughan Anwyl's son so perhaps more info will be available. Bye for now. ~Geaugagrrl ^talk 04:00, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Pen y Bryn

I have edited this page in a way that you may find - interesting. I hope that the page is now much more encyclopedic, better referenced, not depending so much on a single source, and reflecting the available scholarship much better. I will in any case be grateful for your comments - perhaps on the relevant talk page. Civis Romanus (talk) 21:09, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for writing to let me know; your assistance is much appreciated. I'll have a look at your changes and make comments on the article talk page. ~Geaugagrrl ^talk 05:05, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. Might I point out that your comment on the talk page of Garth Celyn gave the real world identity of a Wikipedia editor, and that this is strongly discouraged by Wikipedia policies. Unless of course the editor concerned is happy with it. If she isn't, you might want to contact a friendly administrator to remove all record of the real world identity. Civis Romanus (talk) 20:23, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

I was not aware of that policy. Thanks for letting me know. She didn't really seem to be hiding her identity based on what was being submitted. ~Geaugagrrl ^talk 21:17, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion for WikiProject United States to support WikiProject Washington

It was recently suggested that WikiProject Washington might be inactive or semiactive and it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States. I have started a discussion on the projects talk page soliciting the opinions of the members of the project if this project would be interested in being supported by WikiProject United States. Please feel free to comment on your opinions about this suggestion. --Kumioko (talk) 01:33, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Love your tree photo can I use it in a book for chrildren

Hi I am a writer I cant find your email on the User Talk so I hope you get this. I am working on a cover design for a chrildrens book I have writen. May I use your photo of the white willow tree on the back of the cover of a book, you took the image of a white willow tree and placed here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bloedel_Reserve_Willow_Tree.jpg I have no money to buy the Image or anything yet, but If I can sell enough books I can pay you for it. If you allow me to use the image, how much do you feel is fair? I can't use put anyones name on the book, as there are no names in the story and the author remains nameless as well, the theme of the story is "that it is the message that is importand not the messenger", humility, so I wouldn't be able to use your name in it or mine or anyones, but the image would still be yours and there will only be 999 copies of the book with that image on it, it will be a limited edition...just you would be allowing it on a book. I wouldn't own it, it would still be yours, if you read the story I think it would explain what I mean.

PS I am a writer not an editor sorry for the spelling :) My name is Kevin and my email is motherearthisalive@gmail.com Please let me know If I may us this and if so how much I will pay, you have my word. I am all about Honour and It is such a beutiful Image.

Out of no where, one of my new articles was just redirected to the subject's husband. I need help reversing the article and talk page redirect, please. If the article is not noteworthy, then it should be reviewed under that (speedy delete) criteria, right?

~Kapohogrrl ^talk 23:57, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

You should probably talk to the person who made the edit first (@Cabayi:). Also they did leave a reason in the edit summary, which is "REDIR to Ernest Vaughan, 7th Earl of Lisburne, from where the text was copied, where it's better sourced, and WP:BIOFAMILY" --Terra ^(talk) 01:18, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

Kapohogrrl, I saw your discussion with TerraCodes and decided to put in some time on your article Ernest Vaughan, 7th Earl of Lisburne. I've added sources from the London Gazette which allowed me to unravel some of your faulty claims about his military record. It also uncovered some problems with your contributions which, since you're not a frequent contributor, you may not be aware of.

• Copyright - most of the text in the article was lifted directly from thepeerage.com. (I'll add the templated message below to avoid mis-quoting the policy)
• Image copyright on Commons - the image you loaded for EV is clearly tagged as CC-BY-NC-ND, not the CC-BY-SA 4.0 which you claimed. Wikipedia can not accept a licence which does not allow derivative work.
• Inline sourcing is strongly preferred, not a bunch of sources tacked on to the end of the article.
• Irrelevant sources - the article cited the Dictionary of Welsh Biography. Their article ends with the THIRD Earl in 1831 and has no relevance to an article about the 7th Earl.
• When I look at your contributions on Commons, I see that you claim that you are the copyright owner of, and that Gerald Morgan is the author of, several images. Either you are Gerald Morgan, so citing your own book

• Morgan, Gerald (1997). A Welsh house and its family : the Vaughans of Trawsgoed : a study of the Vaughan family and estate through seven centuries. Llandysul, Ceredigion [Wales]: Gomer. ISBN 1859024726. OCLC 48038048.

is original research, or you're not Gerald Morgan and you've falsely licensed his images. Which is it?

Cabayi (talk) 14:01, 9 October 2017 (UTC)

Hello Cabayi, I am not new to Wikipedia, but apparently have "lost my way" (flubbed it) since editing very frequently in the past. Thanks for jumping in and trying to rescue (and keep on track) what I have posted so far in regards to the Earl and Countess of Lisburne family. I am in communications with Gerald Morgan (personal friend) and John Vaughan (younger brother of current Earl) and really do hope to make the best foot forward in what I post. I do mean to do a lot more editing on this family (Vaughan family of Trawsgoed) since they can reliably trace to 1200s on the same estate in Wales (Trawsgoed). I will do my best to clarify/cleanup what I have posted but I may need additional assistance. I do appreciate your reminders and guidance; I am committed to the Wiki-community and do aspire to make it perfectly accurate. Much appreciated ~Kapohogrrl ^talk 01:02, 14 October 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Kapohogrrl, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Ernest Vaughan, 7th Earl of Lisburne have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Cabayi (talk) 14:07, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
