Hello, Ratel, and welcome to Wikipedia! Here are some pages that will help you to find your way around, understand some of the most relevant policies and guidelines, and develop your editing skills:
A few other useful tips: Please sign your name when you comment on talk pages (not articles) by using four tildes (~~~~), which will show your name and the date. When you edit a page, even minor edits, you should include a descriptive edit summary. If you need help, Drop by the Help Desk or the New Contributors' Help page. Another option is to join the adopt-a-user project. You can also add {{helpme}} to your talk page, followed by your question,and someone will come answer the question, or point you to the proper page. Happy Editing!-► RATEL ◄ 01:52, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

| Description = This image is
| Source = http://

| Portion = Image shown in its entirety.
| Low_resolution = Yes - the image is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality of the image, without being high resolution.
| Purpose = The image helps the reader identify the painting, assures the reader they have reached the correct article, and illustrates the colors and composition in a way that text can't. For use only on articles related directly to the subject.
| Replaceability = The image can't be reasonably duplicated. Any substitute that is not a derivative work, would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification.
| other_information = The image does not in any way limit the ability of the copyright owners to market or sell their product or services, the image is only used once and is rendered in low resolution to avoid piracy, meets Wikipedia's general content and image requirements, and is encyclopedic. The image is used in the article wiki-linked in the section title, and is significant in identifying the subject of the article.
