Chowk Bazaar

Hey Eshahalim, thanks very much for writing the Chowk Bazaar article! I changed some of the layout and added images. I have a question for you: is the entire article sourced to the book Dhaka Smriti Bismriti'r Nogori by Momtashin Maamoon? If so, could you please provide page numbers in the article? Don't worry about formatting; I'll be glad to take care of that. Cheers, Melchoir (talk) 07:07, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

hi yes most of it is sourced from Dhaka Smriti Bismriti'r Nogori and the page numbers are pg 68 to pg 71.I have taken some pictures of Chowk Bazaar and the Shai Mosque but how do i upload and insert them? Eshahalim (talk) 09:02, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There's no need to use a 'helpme' for this, Eshahalim. Instead, what you should have done is, put a quick note on the talk page of Melchoir, saying 'hey, I've replied on my talk' - which I've just done for you with this edit.

Use 'helpme' when you want to get help from any helper (such as me). Cheers, Chzz ► 09:27, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I have another question: when you say "it is sourced from Dhaka Smriti Bismriti'r Nogori" do you mean that you copied the text from that source? I ask because I found the page http://www.diaryfrombangladesh.com/chawk-bazardhaka/ and there were several passages copied from that website, which I've removed. Copying source material isn't allowed on Wikipedia.There is more information at Wikipedia:Copy-paste and Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing.

For uploading pictures, I recommend that you create an account on Commons:. You can then upload a file using the Commons:Upload page. You'll want to choose the "It is entirely my own work" link, which should take you to this page. There are more instructions there. Melchoir (talk) 09:43, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
