Thanks for uploading Image:L 13c1c7cb0342340b4449f9434ae49bae.jpg.

==Benedict Glaister==

Some of your recent Benedict Glaister edits have removed citation tags that I placed there because it is necessary to provide verifiable inline citations for the things you write on Wikipedia. I chose those places to place tags because most of those facts might be questioned by others editors, though the whole article is rather badly sourced and referenced. If you don't know what to do, or how to do, it just ask, but please do not remove tag left by other editors as that is regarded as vandalism, which was no doubt not your intention. Don't forget to assess the links in the welcome information I posted above. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 20:21, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, did not mean to remove the tags, I am trying to edit the page to make it better, sourced and references wise. Thanks for the help.

also when it comes to pictures, I'm not sure how to do the copyright and how to the citations. thanks for the help. Lady234 (talk) 10:13, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem as I replaced the tags. If you need to put in some inline citations, just let me know and I will show you how or check out this page. Under the Policies and Guidelines section of the welcome you will find links to copyright and image use policy. The image must, either be in the public domain, or have a suitable licence like Creative Commons but if all else fails you might be able to use a image under fair-use policy. Do you have am image and where did you get it? ww2censor (talk) 16:36, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any way you can check how many people have viewed your page? Thank you Lady234 (talk) 10:24, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately not that I know of. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 16:36, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the help again, i think i would need some help with citations. Also I was keen to do an infobox, I saw one was up, but this was for a military person, he however was more of adventurer i was wondering how i changed this. thank you. Lady234 (talk) 17:18, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You tried to put one in yourself but missed some of the code; the closing brackets }. You might want to choose a new template here. I would suggest using the biography template with the basic parameters, not all the parameters. Citations are also done with templates as I mentioned above. That page lists both the format for web sites as well as books and journals. Copy the format from the page and fill in the data you have. Ask if you can't figure it out. Here is a page that contains the book and website citation template in use on a page that I did a lot of work on, though some are truncated where the ref is use several times.
