| File:Wiki letter w.png | Note: This page is on Misplaced Pages, if you have been redirected from another project please mention that in your message. |
 | Steinsky is taking a short wikibreak and will be back on Misplaced Pages soon. |
My forced wikibreaks are being voluntarily extended as I've realised how many more fulfilling and productive activities can be completed in the same amount of time that can be spent here. I will still be logged in, and get your message whenever I next happen to click on a link to a WP page.
Misplaced Pages is a community effort: where relevant start discussions in a public namespace, i.e. on the talk page of the article in question, and notify me of them, that way others can give their input. If your comment is about a specific article I will likely reply on the talk page of that article.

The website you sourced the images from doesn't actually say the images are PD. It says they are from some books published in 1932 by the BBC and I quote "In these web pages you can find most of the photos from the books (hopefully out of copyright!).". I don't think they are - as far as I can tell copyright exists for life of the author + 70 years. Therefore I've listed it as a possibly unfree image, in order for someone with more experience to make a decision on it. Alexj2002 13:04, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
Map for K&A canal
I see you are taking a well earned wikibreak & wondered whether, on your return, you might be able to help with a map. It's not actually Bristol, but not far away. I've been doing some work on the Kennet and Avon Canal & have put it up as a FA candidate. One of the comments made was that it would be improved by a map. I've seen maps here, here and here but don't have the knowledge or skills to create one. — Rod 19:58, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- This is now being kindly done by user User:SFC9394 so please cancel the request. — Rod 16:54, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Bristol
Hello. Just wanted to let you know that your project is being listed on the WikiProject Directory, so you might be expecting a bit more activity soon. One suggestion. One of the criteria which is used to determine is a project is eligible for deletion is the lack of any listed members. Right now, your project has no member list and, thus, no members. I think you might want to change that situation. Good luck and I hope you had some fun and relaxation over your break. Badbilltucker 18:44, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Constituency page moves
Hi Joe, I have left reply on my talk and on the project page. --BrownHairedGirl 12:29, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
- Steinsky BrownHairedGirl's moving of pages to XXX (UK Parliament constituency) does have the support of the vast majority of those of us who are working in this area. Simpy moving the pages to vague georgraphic names such as South Dorset is too non specific and we prefer to standardise on 'South Dorset (UK Parliament constituency) as a given example for clarity. Also in the likes of 'West Lancashire', the District council is already on that page as as are the vast majority where the councils and the constituencies share the same same, hence our use of 'West Lancashire (UK Parliament constituency)' for that page and also many others like it.
So please come into line with the rest of us on this subject as I am sure you will realise with further consideration, that you own formula is unworkable on the vast majority of constituencies. Galloglass 13:11, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
- I think you'll find it is very much the case. Your own formula is just too vague I'm afraid Galloglass 13:23, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
- Rather patronising of you to say I'm unfamiliar with the arguments steinsky, Having been a part of this debate for a long time now. Galloglass 13:28, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
wp: uk geography
You rated Banbury a 'start' article on the discussion page, now i know that it isn't fully complete but i think it is at least a B grade article because although it can be improved it has a lot of info, Thatperson 21:37, 29 November 2006 (UTC).

RE: Shaftesbury page
You recently removed a link on the shaftesbury page under the reason "removed spam link" this is vandalism of the Shaftesbury page as the link was to http://shaftesburytown.co.uk the towns completely free website, nothing on that website charges and its the only place where the official where to stay and where to eat tourism guides are kept as well as the shaftesbury and district chamber of commerce business directory. While there have been recent spam by commercial websites relating to shaftesbury attacking its only non-profit one which has a great standing in the community and has served the town well is a great mistake.
Please do more research before damaging pages.
Also the gold hill article links were a bit much, the original 1 link to the gold hill section on shaftesburytown was enough however vandels and spamers removed that last week and replaced it with the 2 links, which for benefit of users were altered to point at the non-profit community and tourism website. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by --Shaftesbury 09:23, 7 January 2007 (UTC)81.129.208.199 (talk) 08:55, 7 January 2007 (UTC).
