Hey, I read over your article [[Prohibition in the United States]] because I saw you had [[CZ:Feedback_Requests|requested feedback]]. It's a pretty good start, overall, briefly covering the important aspects of the topic. I did make some edits for grammar and clarity. One thing I think you should consider is renaming the article, because the current title is quite awkward. How about [[Prohibition in the United States]], or simply [[Prohibition]]? I don't think you need to clarify "of alcohol", because the term almost always refers to the historic prohibition of alcohol. --[[User:Carl Jantzen|Carl Jantzen]] 15:46, 22 August 2007 (CDT) | |||

I have reverted your changes to the caption of the photo of Queen Elizabeth II, becayuse the photo says it is public domain, but you have put a copyright symbol under the photo in the article. This is wrong: if you are in doubt, consult with Stephen Ewen about image copyright.

Prohibition
Hey, I read over your article Prohibition in the United States because I saw you had requested feedback. It's a pretty good start, overall, briefly covering the important aspects of the topic. I did make some edits for grammar and clarity. One thing I think you should consider is renaming the article, because the current title is quite awkward. How about Prohibition in the United States, or simply Prohibition? I don't think you need to clarify "of alcohol", because the term almost always refers to the historic prohibition of alcohol. --Carl Jantzen 15:46, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
- I submitted an enhanced photo for the article. See talk page. --Robert W King 15:53, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
Exploration of the Moon
Please explain why the Category "Exploration of the Moon" was removed from Apollo. Charles F. Radley 10:01, 22 September 2007 (CDT)
Image copyright
I have reverted your changes to the caption of the photo of Queen Elizabeth II, becayuse the photo says it is public domain, but you have put a copyright symbol under the photo in the article. This is wrong: if you are in doubt, consult with Stephen Ewen about image copyright. Sorry to complain, I am sure you thought it was the right thing to do! --Martin Baldwin-Edwards 22:53, 6 October 2007 (CDT)
- Thanks for your reply, there is no problem. I think Stephen has developed a PD sign which you can put there, if you like. However, this issue with image attribution is still being debated and has to go to the Editorial Council. I am still working on a proposal about it...--Martin Baldwin-Edwards 10:54, 7 October 2007 (CDT)

Blind Thomas Jefferson Airplane
Greetings. I think you should remove (or change) your self-effacing comment from Talk:Jefferson Airplane. You are partly right, after all (& I assumed the same thing) - Robert Thorpe 13:47, 14 October 2007 (CDT)

Query on my page
Although you removed it, I got the email notification anyway. i suppose the missing pics are because there are not suitable images for copyright reasons, but no doubt Stephen Ewen can tell you. Or was your query about something other than missing images? --Martin Baldwin-Edwards 16:03, 10 November 2007 (CST)
