{{unblock}}why have I been blocked? I am not a persistant vandal and I have never been warned. look at my contributions if you dont believe me.{{unblock}}

my IP is 82.203.3.4 {{unblock}}

Your IP was indeed blocked because it was vandalizing, and perhaps you got caught by the autoblocker. If this was collateral damage because you share that IP with a vandal, you have my apologies. In any case, plenty of time has passed, so you are now again free to edit. -- SCZenz 07:26, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This IP is Pudsey Public Library in Leeds, maybe there is a resident vandal here?

Bulmer, Victorian historian looks a bit curious if it is to be a biography of a person. I suggest you re-write it slightly as an article about the publishing company. You should find scans of some of their directories at http://www.historicaldirectories.org/ . -- RHaworth 19:04, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Have you any thoughts about Kermit Paint Factory? I am concerned that it might be an hoax since it gets zero Google hits. The author of the article claims here to have references but has not given any. -- RHaworth 15:41, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've never written on anyone elses talk before so I hope I dont balls it up!

I lived in Pudsey for a while, no Idea if the paint factory is real, a bit before my time I'm afraid. I could probably find out if I got some addresses for the factories. Several hundred jobs sounds a little dubious though.

On a completely different topic, do you know how I can make the map to put in the '{{infobox with map}}'? I cant figure it out. And another thing, do you know any good sites to find uncopyrighted photos?

You did not balls it up - your message on my talk page was perfectly OK but I have brought it here cos I like to keep the thread together. But did you sign your comment with ~~~~ ?

Maps. What I usually do is find a dotty map for another place within 10 or 15 km and then use it either in {{GBmap}}, eg. Kettleshulme or {{Infobox England place}}, eg. Ulverston. Category:GBdot contains a list of all the dotty maps. There is a generic template:GBthumb which lets you put the dot anywhere but I find it too messy to use (and I created it!). And I've just noticed a new version of that, described in Template talk:Infobox England place and used in eg. Bolton-le-Sands.

Uncopyrighted photos. You can search the photo sharing sites such as flickr, multiply or fotopic (note fotopic is in Wakefield) for ones with an appropriate licence but it may be a long search. All images on geograph are on a licence that allows Wikipedia to use them - please upload them to the Commons and put a proper {{geograph}} tag on them. -- RHaworth 00:25, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

my usual IP is 81.96.242.176.

my computer often logs me out without warning so my contributions appear as either User:King of the North East or as 81.96.242.176.

I was in the middle of making a table of Listed buildings in Leeds, I accidentally put it into [[Category:Listed Buildings in Leeds)), (a category I created and populated) when I meant to put it into Listed buildings in Leeds so I cut and pasted it from one to the other and got barred.

I am fairly new to wikipedia so i didnt know that deleting my own work would be considered as a crime against the system.

I have contacted the administrator responsible, (User:DragonflySixtyseven) but have had no response.

I dont know why the link to Category:Listed Buildingss in Leeds wont work, when I put the square brackets around it, it just dissapears.

You got no response because of timezones. I live in Montreal, and I just woke up 20 minutes ago. I concede that the block was in error; I'll fix that. DS 11:22, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
