Getting images into wikipedia

[edit]

Ideally you would use Wikimedia Commons, so that the image is available to all language wikis, but you can start here.

On the left side of this window, see 'toolbox' and then Upload file. There are instructions there about what you have to do. Please note that the only thing that Wikipedia takes a consistently hard line on is copyright abuse: please see the strict rules in the article. If you upload an image that is your own work, it must be unambiguously free for anyone to use, in any circumstances whatever. You relinquish all rights to it, even if it is used commercially in a work that deletes all the wikipedia context. (The same is true for any text in Wikipedia).--Red King (talk) 17:50, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Before you go to a lot of work, you might want to check Commons to see if there is already a better image. --Red King (talk) 17:50, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Typo redirect Ms. Fitz

[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Ms. Fitz, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Ms. Fitz is a redirect page resulting from an implausible typo (CSD R3).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Ms. Fitz, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

The series of redirects you created in December amount to vandalism. If that sort of disruptive editing continues, you will be blocked.-Andrew c [talk] 16:32, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
