Pryor (Creek)

edit

Thanks for your note...in what way is it called simply Pryor by the state government?  The thing is that the way we name municipality articles is always going by their official name, rather than even a common nickname such as "Pryor": because the article is about the city, not simply about an area where population density is a lot higher than in nearby farm fields, it's incorrect to have it at another title.  It's not just the Census Bureau that recognises it as Pryor Creek: although the area where population density is a lot higher than in nearby farm fields is listed by the GNIS as Pryor (with a variant name of Pryor Creek), the city itself is listed as Pryor Creek without any variant names. This being said, the state government could trump it, such as if the state had officially seen the city be renamed; but unless that's happened, I can't see why/how/etc. this should be done properly. You mention New York: that's different, as a long discussion has resulted in a list of cities given in the AP Stylebook being listed other than they might be normally; but that only affects about 25 of the country's largest and best-known cities, which (obviously :-) Pryor Creek isn't.

Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:Titanoboa.jpg

edit

Thank you for uploading Image:Titanoboa.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image 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 image 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 images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image 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. Jkelly (talk) 20:34, 6 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
