Screw EL

Hi, I understand that the EL link you keep removing is to a commercial site, however it has useful information, especially the images. I believe the link qualifies per WP:ELYES point 3; The images cannot be incorporated into Wikipedia because of copyright issues. As such, it should be restored, unless you can find a non-commercial link to replace it. Wizard191 (talk) 20:44, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

The website may be copyrighted but the information can still be put into the article. Bolt Depot does not hold copyrights to the head markings or specs on metric or sae bolts. The info is easily obtained from other sources. --Weetoddid (talk) 20:58, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

I looked at your contribs and see your active in removing spam so I won't revert if it goes back. I just hate to see the state of the external links sections these days. --Weetoddid (talk) 21:07, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

You are correct that they don't hold a copyright on the marking layouts, however we can't just copy their images. I'll try and create an SVG version of the images today and incorporate the info into the article so that this becomes a moot point. Wizard191 (talk) 22:13, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Lake Huron article dead external link

Just a quick note to let you know that I restored the dead external link that you removed from the article, and replaced it with a link to a stored version of the site in the Internet archive. Wiki policy recommends that if the information provided by a dead link contains desirable material, this is the preferred maintenance procedure. See WP:DEADREF. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 00:18, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

I'd seen something on the internet archive earlier, but forgotten all about it. I see you cleaned up a few more of my deletions. Sorry to make extra work for you. At least I knew not to remove them from the refs. --Weetoddid (talk) 20:50, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

June 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, you may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did in North Albion Collegiate Institute, makes it harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. See WP:PEACOCK. —C45207 | Talk 04:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

I restored a blanked section that the editor gave no reason for blanking which had been blanked by the same IP in Feb (and reverted). If the editor had had mentioned WP:PEACOCK in an edit summary or edited out peacock wording I would not have rolled back. A uw seems a little harsh for an obviously good faith reversion. --Weetoddid (talk) 04:39, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

You're right. You didn't create the peacock section. My bad. I still think that it should be removed, though I'll leave this to you.—C45207 | Talk 04:48, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
