User talk:Peter James

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Peter James!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Hi Peter

Thanks for telling me how to correct Featherstone Park railway station and Coanwood. Now requested for name change.

John.

Files uploaded by Hinghty, Over To the Next Lane, and ZonesinZonesz

Based on your information from Commons:Deletion requests/File:Hgfddfdgsdf.jpg, I've nominated those 3 other users' alleged "own works" for nomination as well at Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Hinghty, Over To the Next Lane, and ZoneinZonesz. I also nominated Commons:Deletion requests/File:Dsfdsfds.jpg separately because it might be salvageable. Should someone be bringing up the newer sockpuppets for investigation on Commons, or were they already taken care of somewhere else? --Closeapple (talk) 08:36, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Redirect on Gateshead Metro station

Thanks for spotting my error and reverting the redirect on Gateshead Metro station. I hadn't realised that the page was transcluded. (Commons is a wee bit more complicated than Wikipedia and Wikidata!) I think I've done it correctly now and have applied the redirect again. Cheers. DrFrench (talk) 22:29, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. 4nn1l2 (talk) 15:03, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

Category:Temple Mills

Can you fix whatever you have done to Category:Temple Mills ? It used to correctly link to the wikidata info at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q115148090 it now links to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2402962 This is incorrect. Also why and how did you do this? Oxyman (talk) 23:31, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

It was originally Q2402962; I split the item because it confused the area with the Eurostar depot. I've purged the commons page and the infobox is now using the new item. Peter James (talk) 23:42, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

Ok thanks, I couldn't figure out why the wikidata wasn't showing the correct info. Oxyman (talk) 23:48, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
