File source problem with File:Early trench watch DSC00031 copy2.jpg.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Early trench watch DSC00031 copy2.jpg.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:22, 18 December 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. (ESkog)^(Talk) 15:22, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

{{unblock-un}} ihaynes

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Allowing username change to ihaynes (talk · contribs). Please put this request in at Wikipedia:Changing username as soon as possible to avoid re-blocking. — Athaenara ✉ 06:48, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request handled by: — Athaenara ✉ 06:48, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unblocking administrator: Please check for active autoblocks on this user after accepting the unblock request.

Would I be out of line here if it occurred to me that "ihaynes" is the author referenced in the only source provided in your WW1 Watches article? If so, we have another problem; we're not allowed to use ourselves as sources in Wikipedia. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 17:41, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, that's not strictly true. Daniel Case (talk) 02:44, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of WW1 Watches

The article WW1 Watches has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Wikipedia is not for essays.

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 {{dated prod}} 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 {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.
