Disambiguation link notification for August 18



Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Arthur Wellesley, 4th Duke of Wellington ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vanity Fair ↗. Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 07:51, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

John Dodd (engineer) ↗ moved to draftspace



Thanks for your contributions to John Dodd (engineer) ↗. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because '''it needs more sources to establish notability''' and '''Facebook and Youtube are not reliable sources'''.
I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page ↗.
When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. voorts (talk/contributions ↗) 19:24, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

:Thank you. I agree that it should've been a draft. Having had my first article, John Morgan, 6th Baron Tredegar ↗, approved, I can now approve drafts myself. It seems to automatically approve itself, so I am unsure as to how I can create a draft. Please could you let me know for future reference? Mac Edmunds (talk) 19:30, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
:The original article still exists, and has now been connected to the relevant WikiData page. Is there a way that it could be deleted, to avoid confusion while I work on the draft? Mac Edmunds (talk) 19:32, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
::I will request the article's deletion on your behalf. voorts (talk/contributions ↗) 19:42, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
:::Thank you. Mac Edmunds (talk) 20:13, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
:Hello again,
:Just to point out, I agree that social media platforms of Facebook and YouTube ilks, are usually unreliable sources, as not peer reviewed. However, the Facebook posts have been made by children of Dodd, who I am sure are reliably informed for obvious reasons. I can accept that this does not prove notability as it is a primary source, however I maintain that it is accurate.
:As for the YouTube sources, each come from reliable independent journalists, who have columns and websites outside of YouTube. Here is a list of the relevant videos and why they're reliable:
:Car & Classic: This is the platform that sold "The Beast", meaning their information would be accurate, as supplied from the Dodd family themselves.
:Throttle House: Two reliable independent journalists, who have formal content outside of YouTube, and whose information would be accurate as supplied by "The Beast's" current owner.
:TLBS: Presented by Jonny Smith ↗, a reliable independent journalist who has written for magazines, and formal television programmes.
:The only other video(s) are from Suzanne Dodd, daughter of John Dodd, whose information would be reliable for obvious reasons, although does not prove notability.
:Mac Edmunds (talk) 21:41, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
::The fact that they're journalists outside of YouTube doesn't affect their reliability, unless they're considered experts ↗, in which case they might be reliable outside of publication in a traditional media outlet. I recommend working on the draft more and submitting it through AfC. voorts (talk/contributions ↗) 22:55, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

John Dodd's car



Hey! I'd recommend that you make an article on "The Beast" itself, as it seems that interestingly, it has a better claim to notability than John Dodd himself. OhHaiMark (talk) 13:22, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

:Hi @OhHaiMark
:I did consider that when I made the page, especially considering ‘The Beast’ is the main topic of the page.
:However, I think Dodd gains notability from the engineering feat of building an aero-engined car, and not the other way around. Plus, his eccentric life outside of his car is also interesting.
:Mac Edmunds (talk) 15:22, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
::Notability is about what sources say. If the sources primarily discuss the Beast, the article should be about that. voorts (talk/contributions ↗) 22:54, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

Replaceable non-free use File:Duncan Barber OBE 2024.jpg


32px|left ↗
Thanks for uploading ''':File:Duncan Barber OBE 2024.jpg ↗'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use ↗. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion ↗. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to the file description page ↗ and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|&lt;your reason>}} '''below''' the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <code>&lt;your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On the file's talk page ↗, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license ↗, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=Mac_Edmunds&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy ↗. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you. <!-- Template:di-replaceable non-free use-notice --> — Ирука<sup>13 ↗</sup> 06:28, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

File source problem with File:John Dodd The Beast.png


64px|left|alt=|link= ↗
Thank you for uploading ''':File:John Dodd The Beast.png ↗'''. 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page ↗.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion ↗ and ask for a chance to fix the problem.<!-- Template:You can request undeletion -->

Please refer to the '''image use policy ↗''' to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads ↗. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page ↗.

::@Mac Edmunds, you could probably remove the suggested links. However you should not remove talk sections, and never delete another editor’s comments WP:TPO ↗, regardless of age. The only option is archiving if it is needed (such years old discussions or very long/active talk page). 3 months ago is relatively new actually in terms of most small pages and the RM has to be kept to show the current title was discussed, is the consensus, and therefore be more likely respected.

:Hi @Bonadea. Don't quite understand your rationale? The Wikipedia notoriety criteria states that three accurate and reliable sources are required which show significant coverage. I have provided three: 1) ''Country Life'', a full-article feature on Reed. 2) ''Classic Driver'', a high-brow journalistic source with another full-article feature. 3) the ''Mail Online'' article, which although tabloid, provides the same information as the former two. While some may argue, it is the content that's notable (i.e., arguably Reed's Land Rover, not Reed herself), it is Reed, her personality and adventures that are being reported on, fuelled by her interest in her Land Rover.
:Furthermore, while the podcast and YouTube sources are primary and not peer-reviewed, the frequency of them (plus Reed's undeniable presence throughout them), provides a guide as to her social media influence, and the scope of her out-reach.

Thanks



Thanks for the new articles, several names of which were new to me. I was at 82MM this year (my first MM, though I am no stranger to FoS, Revival and other venues). Hope you find more to create. Best wishes, Tony. <b><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;color:#000000">Tony Holkham</span></b> ''<b><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;color:#008080">(Talk)</span></b>'' 19:39, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

:Thank you. I assume it was my revamp of the Goodwood House ↗ article which brought you here? I too was at 82MM. My Dad was racing our Mini in the Whitmore Cup saloon car race... our first time competing at Goodwood. We'll be at Revival this year, alas, only spectating. There are a few other articles that I would probably like to create, or at least revamp; I think a lot more could be added to the Goodwood House page, and probably the current Duke's too. But as I'm sure you know, it's a bit of a rabbit-hole researching these things! :) Mac Edmunds (talk) 20:37, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
::Yes, Goodwood is one of my favourite places. Rabbit hole indeed. Be cautious about using too much from the primary source (Goodwood itself), as it is always better to use secondary sources where possible. If you need any help, let me know.

Machen House



Nice photos! Did you go with a view to buying? KJP1 (talk) 20:13, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

:right|250x250px ↗'Fraid not. The photos were actually in December. I finally got around to going down there to improve on the old infobox photo, taken from the entrance gates. The lady who answered the door kindly let me take some, so an improvement I hope. I also went to Plas Machen, but no answer on the door. I spotted a man inside doing spreadsheets on a computer, so I suspect the not-answering was intentional! Managed to get a fairly good photo of Plas Machen, however, when I was walking back to the car though Lower Machen. Just spotted it across the trees. Mac Edmunds (talk) 20:24, 19 January 2026 (UTC)
::right|250x250px ↗
::Also went to Ruperra Castle on Saturday for the first time. Very secluded place, but a sad sight given how beautiful it once was. Pictures of that property uploaded to Commons too. Mac Edmunds (talk) 20:28, 19 January 2026 (UTC)
:::Yep, Ruperra is a sorry wreck. It's over 30 years since I saw it, it was bad then and it looks worse now. It's the kind of building that you hope such as the Landmark Trust could take on, but the rebuild costs will be astronomical. I fear it will never happen now.
:::You can never predict owners' reactions but my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. In photographing dozens for Monmouthshire's Grade Is and II*s, I only had one negative response. At Hygga House Dovecote, Trellech ↗, I was even offered tea! KJP1 (talk) 20:43, 19 January 2026 (UTC)
::::Yes, it is a worry that nothing will happen to Ruperra. There were conversations that the NT would take it on in 1949, at the same time they were looking at Tredegar House. James Lees-Milne said that he "saw no point in [the proposals] at all". Considering in those days, the park was simply overgrown and the castle still all together, I'm sure the Trust would make quite a different decision if given the same opportunity to take it on now, in the condition it was in then. A few surveys have been commissioned by the owner, but whether anything will come of it... The stables and service buildings are still in use. A lady (with two viciously yappy dogs; I'm glad there was fencing between us) told me over the fence that she keeps her horses there, but said no work was being undertaken to the castle itself. On a brighter note, tea!... Well that is a result, then! Mac Edmunds (talk) 20:56, 19 January 2026 (UTC)
::::Interesting article on the dovecote. "Ivy, that most dangerous foe of masonry", as Arthur Owens Cooke is quoted in the article, has thankfully been removed at Ruperra in recent years; not long ago, it engulfed most of the towers. Mac Edmunds (talk) 21:03, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

Gattonside - will accept after redirect dealt with



Hello @Mac Edmunds - I will get the Draft:Gattonside House ↗ into mainspace, however there is a redirect in place, so I need someone else to delete that first. I live nearby, I can see you have done a lot of work and research on this, many thanks for that. ChrysGalley (talk) 18:07, 7 February 2026 (UTC)

:Thanks very much for that quick review. Yes, I noticed that there was a redirect one submission. Thanks for you comments on my research! It took quite some hours to collate the sources. From there, the write-up was pretty straightforward. My reason for writing was that John Morgan ↗ appears to have occupied the house for a short time 1952–1953. I've done a lot of research on John Morgan, and created his page, so Gattonside cropped up during my work. As you live nearby, I wonder if you'd be able to advise me on an apparent conflict of information. The Historic Environment Scotland listing report for the property states that it was owned by the Brothers of Charity and used as a care home from 1921. However, newspapers contradict this, with photographic evidence, that the Hon. Mr and Mrs Montgomerie lived there from c.1923 to 1951. Similarly, the report lists the chapel connected to the house as being built "almost single-handedly" by one of the Brothers of Charity from 1921 to 1972. But again, photos exist from 1930, clearly showing that no such work had yet been carried out. Perhaps the single Brother building the chapel from 1921 is a generalisation, based on the supposed ''fact'' that the Brothers owned the property from then onwards. Even so, the assertion that they owned and used the property from 1921 seems to have no grounds? Perhaps something as simple as a member of staff informing the reporters during their inspection in 1971 that this was in fact the case? Mac Edmunds (talk) 18:25, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
::* OK, I think there is someone I know who may know the answer, whether this is going to lead to a reliable source is another matter - he used to work there. My first reaction, uncluttered by sourcing, is that the chapel was a bit later than 1930, it's the sort of thing that happened in the late 1930s when there was a lot more pessimism around. However the photos that I've seen of the chapel suggest something more modern, 1960s even. But I'll do some digging around.
::ChrysGalley (talk) 18:36, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
:::Having hit this problem a number of times, I tend to just write the article over the redirect page, which has worked previously. Whether it is the right approach, and how it fits with AFC, I know not. KJP1 (talk) 18:43, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
::::Yes we are templated in AfC, so we press a button and on of the higher unpaid helps usually steps in within a day or so. Writing over the redirect page will cause problems in terms of categorisations, patrols and what-not. It's a bit of a delay, I grant, so the ever eager ranks of Wikipedia readers will just have to hold on for a bit. ChrysGalley (talk) 18:49, 7 February 2026 (UTC)

:::Hi Chrys. You mentioned being local to Gattonside. The housing developers who have recently acquired the site are engaging with locals throughout the development of the property.

:It’s the painting of John Morgan in the green dinner jacket.

AI



Hi - I noticed that you told User:Ipflo that AI use is acceptable: {{tq|Moderated and considerate use, I think all would agree, is fine.}}

All would ''not'' agree, and Wikipedia's stance, per WP:NEWLLM ↗, is that AI use for anything but basic copyediting (typos, punctuation, etc) is not allowed. So please don't mislead users about what Wikipedia's guidelines are. Gnomingstuff (talk) 23:33, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

:My apologies. If this is the case, then much of their editing breaches guidelines. Not to throw anyone under any buses, but that’s just the case. Mac Edmunds (talk) 06:38, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Death Valley



I don’t know if you watch Death Valley ↗, but I’m currently playing “find the filming locations”. Such trivial things provide entertainment in difficult times. Much is in Llantwit Major ↗, but what building is John Chapel’s cottage, and which is the purported Port Talbot Police Station? KJP1 (talk) 20:33, 3 July 2026 (UTC)

:Never heard of it, but will have a look and report back. Mac Edmunds (talk) 07:22, 4 July 2026 (UTC)
::Lots of instantly-recognisable ones, e.g. Raglan, Insole, but a fair number that are harder to identify. Whether you’ll like the series… among my friends there are almost equal numbers who do and don’t. KJP1 (talk) 09:22, 4 July 2026 (UTC)
:::From the first episode, thus perhaps a premature conclusion, the show is not to my taste. But I have been able to identify the buildings in question. John Chapel's cottage is in St. Hilary (as per this article ↗) and is of a terrace accessed from Llantrithyd Road. I can't see a number or name for the house, but if you search "1 Llantrithyd Road" into Google Earth, you'll come within a few metres of it. Coincidentally, the terrace is adjacent to the home of a godson of the last Lord Tredegar. The Port Talbot Police Station seems to be Mountain Ash Town Hall ↗.
