User talk:Cassiopeia

This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers, which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated.

Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page.
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
Please specify a descriptive subject or headline for a new topic and separate subtopics by ===heading=== lines, if needed.
Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.

I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.

Question from Highwayman10419 (03:32, 5 November 2024)

Would like to add a picture to a page --Highwayman10419 (talk) 03:32, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Highwayman10419Good day. Here's what you need to do to follow the process:

(A) Ensure You Own the Image: You must be the original creator (i.e., the photographer or illustrator) of the image to hold the copyright.

(B)Understand Wikimedia Commons and Wikipedia Copyright Polices:

(1)WP:Copyright outlines the need for clear ownership and release of works under free licenses.

(2)WP:Images provides guidelines on what kinds of images are acceptable on Wikipedia.

Make sure your image follows these rules, and that you're okay with releasing it under a free license, such as Creative Commons.

(C)Upload the Image:

(1) Go to Wikimedia Commons Upload Wizard - see HERE.

(2) Follow the steps to upload your image. You'll need to select a license, likely a Creative Commons license, that allows others to reuse the image with appropriate attribution.

(3) During this process, you'll be asked to irrevocably release your copyright, making the image freely available for others to use.

(4) Get the File Name: Once the image is uploaded, you'll be provided with a file name in the format File:Example.jpg. Copy this name.

(D) Insert the Image into Wikipedia:

(1) On the Wikipedia page where you want to use the image, use the syntax:

(2) Replace "Example.jpg" with your file name and add a description of the image.

(3) Ensure the image appears correctly and aligns with the content of the Wikipedia page prior saving the edit.

By following these steps, your image will be legally and properly uploaded for use on Wikipedia. Let me know if you need further assistance! Cassiopeia talk 00:57, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Patroller School

Hi Cassiopeia, I hope this message finds you well!

I was wondering if you would be available to be my trainer in New Page Patroller School?

I'm very interested in helping with the backlog, and have ~40 AfDs with a 100% match rate, 10 CSDs and 15 CopyPatrol reviews, while meeting the edit count requirement and having created several articles myself.

Note that the Cave article that shows up in my Xtools pages created isn't mine and was made on behalf of a user needing help on IRC.

I'm also very passionate about helping new users understand our guidelines, being active on the Teahouse, Help Requests and IRC.

Thank you for your time in considering me! Molecular Pilot 08:25, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
