Reference Errors on 20 December

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

License tagging for File:Ankogel.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Ankogel.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:06, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Alps

Hi Huddsblue, Thanks for your message, and welcome. I'm quite busy right now and don't have the opportunity to do much editing so I'm not sure how much I can help. I'll have a look at your new Ankogel page and tweak it a bit when I have the chance. Best advice I can give is to look at the coding, style and formatting of other similar pages and follow that. It's what I did when I got started and seems to work fine. You also need to sort out the copyright info for the image. Good luck! Ericoides (talk) 10:12, 2 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your advice! I think I've cracked it ;-)
That's great news. (PS Always remember to sign every post on Talk pages with four tildes, so people know who's made the post and when! Colon indents, as here (click the edit tab to see the coding), also help to keep a nice sense of spatial order.) Ericoides (talk) 07:01, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletions

I note that you often use the {{db}} template with your own invented rationales ({{db|1=insert reason here}}). Please note that the criteria for speedy deletion are very narrowly defined. The use of the non-specific db template should be limited. Instead, use deletion templates that are specific to the particular criteria: {{db-band}} for non-notable bands, {{db-person}} for non-notable persons, {{db-hoax}} for blatant hoaxes, etc. If you are unfamiliar with these templates, you can find them listed under Category:Speedy deletion templates. Please familiarize yourself also with the allowable criteria for speedy deletion. If an article is not eligible for speedy deletion, then do not tag it for such; use one of the other deletion processes. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:24, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Huddsblue. You have new messages at Huddsblue's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Hi Dan61 yes I am trying to learn. I saw someone else use that template and thought it applied to all prop deletion. I will try to follow your advice, so thank you for taking the time to write to me {{Huddsblue (talk) 21:59, 27 January 2015 (UTC)}}[reply]

A barnstar for you!

Thanks for your recent efforts in adding citations to many mountain related articles. RacerX11 Talk to meStalk me 04:15, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great work! If I may offer just a couple small tips. Peakbagger has its own ref template Template:Cite peakbagger. It may save you some time to use it, and some of this discussion may be applicable as why you should use it. See here for an example of the template in use. Also note that the comma doesn't affect the displayed elevation and prominence values, so it's not entirely necessary to add it in. --RacerX11 Talk to meStalk me 04:15, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Categories and sub-categories

Hello. When an article is categorized to a sub-category of another category, it is proper to only cat the sub-category and not the parent, lest we defeat the purpose of sub-catting in the first place. I have corrected most all such changes you have made, for example here.Thank you. --RacerX11 Talk to meStalk me 06:50, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The same applies to all the Category:Mountains of Liechtenstein mountains that have been been put in Category:Mountains of the Alps despite the latter already being the parent of the former. I have not fixed these. JMiall 09:39, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
