License tagging for Image:Palmwood house.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Palmwood house.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 13:08, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Dear Dominic, please do not take offence at my deleting most of your article. As you understood correctly, the main problem was the lack of references. If you can provide accurate references for your claims, please feel free to restore (parts of) your original article. Bear in mind, however that your interviews with company representatives may qualify as orignal research, and do not belong in the wikipedia. Also make an effort to preserve a neurtral point of view throughout your article. I believe the wikipedia would be better with your article in it, but we must all try to adhere to the wikipedia standards. I hope you find the time to restore and improve on your article.

Kind regards --Philippe 09:06, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
