Thank you / Asking for help

Thank you for your good faith efforts to improve Wikipedia. I have taken the liberty of adding a more-detailed Welcome message just above, with more detailed pointers to help. I am not expert on images rights clearance, but you should be able to find guidance in online documentation. If you still cannot find what you need, you can always ask at the WP:HELPDESK. Cheers!
