Thanks for uploading [[:Image:Lindisfarne Bay.jpg]]. I just wanted to compliment you on the image, and encourage you to continue to upload any useful photos you have. You might also want to consider uploading them to the [[m:Commons:Main_page|Commons]] so that all of the projects can access them. Again, great picture! --[[User:Hetar|Hetar]] 05:36, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


OK, so it wasn't the quickest response in WP history, but a mere three years after you asked for it, I've added a photo of [[Yabba]] to his article. Cheers [[User:Manning Bartlett|Manning]] ([[User talk:Manning Bartlett|talk]]) 00:13, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
Phil, "the Commons" that I mentioned earlier is what is officialy known as the Wikimedia Commons. It is run by the same non-profit company that runs Wikipedia, and its sole purpose is to host all types of free media (mostly images if I remember correctly). The Commons is useful because once you upload an image there, it can be used on the English Wikipedia, the Spanish Wikipedia, or any other language project, all via the same image name. Here are some links with more info:

==Pocket cruiser==
I just got around to looking at the high res picture of the Nautilus you uploaded, and was really suprised to see that it had an inboard motor. Do you know of any other pocket cruisers like that? [[User:Fluzwup|scot]] 22:15, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

==RfC:Infobox Road proposal==
--Pocket Cruiser yachts of around 20'LOD that come with an inboard diesel are quite scarce here in Tasmania. Most small yachts here use outboards, even boats of up to 30' often have them. The inboard diesel was a major selling point for me when I bought the Nautilus, as I truly hate outboards of all types and refuse to ever use one again. I love diesels however and my little 8hp Yanmar has powered me through some atrocious weather for hours on end (60knots plus winds) and got me home safely every time, all the while using very little fuel.

*[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Australian Roads/RfC:Infobox Road proposal]]
There ''are'' some pocket yacht designs that use inboard diesels, either as standard, or at request, but they are rare; Selway Fisher designs in the UK feature some small yachts that can be fitted with diesels for instance. I suppose the fact that so many pocket cruisers are designed to be trailerable precludes the extra weight of a diesel in many designer's minds.--[[User:Phil Wardle|Phil Wardle]] 06:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Phil - you seem to be the world's expert on the Savage Nautilus ! I have a question about rigging - on two examples of the craft I have noticed that there is a forward facing sheath in the top of the mast. Do you have any idea what this is for ? It's not matched by an exit point at the base of the mast. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Ericrussell|Ericrussell]] ([[User talk:Ericrussell|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Ericrussell|contribs]]) 11:12, 24 January 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
