Copyrighted image

Thanks for your observation about the absence of copyright information about the image inserted in the page named 'The Fine Print and other Yarns'. I have added the required copyright information. I hope it will suffice. If not the present image can be deleted and I will try to find another one with even lesser resolution (one which has been used in a newspaper report and which is available on the internet).

You still need to add a non-free license tag (see here) and a fairuse rationale (see here) --Chris 02:05, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

{{IPAr}} rd.

Would it be possible to change transclusions of the now-deprecated template + switch {{IPAr|pl|...}} to {{IPAc-pl|...}}? There are over 25,000 of them. Because of the switch, we cannot just redirect, and because there are more transclusions than AWB can handle, we can't maintain the template. AFAIK, all have the |pl switch, but if not, I can go through and clean up the remainder manually. kwami (talk) 19:42, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

I'll start work on it soon. --Chris 07:39, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! kwami (talk) 07:48, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Barnhill

OK, I've had a shot at putting a a copyright tag on the Barnhill image. No idea whether it's right or not (I find this technical stuff bewildering!). Perhaps you could have a look and let me know? Thanks. Dhmellor (talk) 07:33, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Everything looks correct. Thank you. --Chris 07:35, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Sock template deprecation bot mapping errors

There appear to be some errors in the mapping. If the bot is approved, please don't run it until you check for issues at the WP:SPI page.--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 22:02, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

• Operator headspace, I didn't notice that we have to rename a template first.--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 22:13, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
