The article Corus Hotels has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- no evidence of notability
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — [[::User:RHaworth|RHaworth]] (talk · contribs) 19:38, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
- I've added a few more references, nothing very exciting, but no less notable than the 16,511 lumps of rock that have their own articles. --Iantresman (talk) 20:36, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
License tagging for File:Proctor-beauchamp-ancestry.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Proctor-beauchamp-ancestry.jpg. 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.

Removing Speedy at Latham of Bradwell
Hi Iantresman, you recently removed a deletion tag from Latham of Bradwell. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 00:11, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Ian, you might remember me from the bad old plasma physics days way back in '05... interesting that you know so much about the Cheshire Lathams - which includes my great uncle! Jon (talk) 06:59, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
- Gosh, a small world. Bradwall itself is just around the corner from, and after I heard about three members of the same family, the memorial to the good old doctor, the family seat, and the school, it sounded to interesting to ignore. --Iantresman (talk) 08:24, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Just wanted to say thanks for your improvements to E number! -- Ed (Edgar181) 17:49, 14 December 2011 (UTC) |
- Many thanks for your kind words. The changes are small, and I only wish there was a better way to represent several hundred entries in the E number table. I plan to do some more, for now, I'm trying to figure out the difference between E315 Erythorbic acid and E317 Erythorbin acid, and consequently the difference between E316 Sodium erythorbate and E318 Sodium erythorbin. I can find nothing on the erythorbins. --Iantresman (talk) 18:12, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
- I've copied and replied at the end of the E number talk page. --Iantresman (talk) 20:27, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi. In Bourne Co. Music Publishers, you recently added a link to the disambiguation page Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Pinewood
category pinewood studios is popping up on films and tv not made at pinewood. please fix.90.215.25.153 (talk) 18:16, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- Do you have some examples? I'm using the List of Pinewood Studios productions, which I didn't compile, but assumed was correct. --Iantresman (talk) 18:25, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- I been looking at this as well and the list has wrong links 1996 The Saint is the film not the tv series, 1997 The Avengers again link to tv and not to the film. 2000 Queen of Swords tv series was filmed in Spain except for 20 minutes in london and I have been looking for years as to where in London it was filmed. Reply here to keep in one place please.REVUpminster (talk) 22:23, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- I think the List of Pinewood Studios productions is very broad, in that productions don't have to be made exclusively at the studios, but may include productions in which just a very small part of the film/TV programme was made there. For example, the IMDB includes films where even a single scene had their sound re-recorded at Pinewood. On the one hand, some people may not consider this sufficient, on the other hand, I'm sure Pinewood would credit the programme as being a client. --Iantresman (talk) 23:22, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- But the Saint and Avengers links are to 1960's TV series so no part could have been in the years of the article. Hopefully watchers of other tv and film will notice the errors.REVUpminster (talk) 23:58, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- I guess that's where editors with a greater knowledge of the films and TV programmes will be able to demonstrate their expertise. Thanks for the heads-up. --Iantresman (talk) 00:34, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Pensee-ivr7.jpg
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Pensee-ivr7.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:13, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Mediation Cabal: Request for participation
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7e/Wikipedia-Medcab.svg/50px-Wikipedia-Medcab.svg.png)
Dear Iantresman: Hello. This is just to let you know that you've been mentioned in the following request at the Mediation Cabal, which is a Wikipedia dispute resolution initiative that resolves disputes by informal mediation.
The request can be found at Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/27 February 2012/Wikipedia:Verifiability.
Just so you know, it is entirely your choice whether or not you participate. If you wish to do so, and we'll see what we can do about getting this sorted out. At MedCab we aim to help all involved parties reach a solution and hope you will join in this effort.
If you have any questions relating to this or any other issue needing mediation, you can ask on the case talk page, the MedCab talk page, or you can ask the mediator, Mr. Stradivarius, at their talk page. MedcabBot (talk) 14:09, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for expanding the article! Lugnuts (talk) 09:57, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

WP:V mediation straw poll
Hello Ian, this is just to let you know that we are having a straw poll about how many drafts to include in the proposed RfC about Wikipedia:Verifiability. The result of this straw poll will have a large effect on the direction the mediation takes, so if you could let us know your preferred number over at the mediation page, I would be very grateful. I am thinking of leaving the discussion open at least until 10am (UTC) on Thursday, March 22, and possibly longer if we require more time to reach a consensus. Best — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 16:22, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
WP:V mediation compromise drafts
Hello Ian, this is just to let you know that to help find compromise drafts at the verifiability mediation, I would like each mediation participant to submit at least one draft at one work group that includes the best of all the previously submitted drafts of that work group. This will probably make more sense if you look at this section on the mediation page, but if anything is still unclear, just let me know. Best regards — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 17:34, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
WP:V mediation step five
Hello Ian, this is another update about the verifiability mediation. We have now started step five, in which we will work towards deciding a final draft for each work group. I would like you to submit a statement about this - have a look at the mediation page to see the details of what you should include. The deadline for this step is 10.00 am on Friday 6th April (UTC), and unlike the other steps I am going to be strict about it. If you don't leave a statement by the deadline, then you won't be able to participate in steps six or seven. If you think you are going to be late turning in your statement, please let me know as soon as possible - I can't promise anything, but it will be much easier to work out alternative arrangements now than it would be after the deadline has passed. Best regards — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 17:39, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
