National Varieties of English
[edit]Thanks for your contribution to the Semiconductor device article. Before changing spelling to match your local usage, please review Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#National_varieties_of_English. Some important guidelines:
- The usage most relevant to the subject matter (doesn't apply to this article)
- Keep the usage within the article consistent(since the article uses about "transistors" and "tubes" instead of "valves", we seem to be using American English)
- "If all else fails, consider following the spelling style preferred by the first major contributor (that is, not a stub) to the article"

Image source problem with Image:Dilbert2033251021119.gif
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Dilbert2033251021119.gif. 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 23:47, 26 October 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -Nard 23:47, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
