How does one add picture of art? I have obtained permission of the artist. Jayvee69 (talk)jayvee
 * There is an address that you need to send a release to at wikipedia. I will see if I can locate it.  In the meantime I am getting ready to remove all the content on this page that is cut & pasted from here http://christiansatin.be/Biographie.html  Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 02:03, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Here is the wikipedia permissions email address.      Howevr be aware that the permission must come from the artist, not for some person that he has given permission to unless it is done very carefully.  Anyway, contact those folks and ask them.  Carptrash (talk) 02:08, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

I would like to keep the description of Transrealism obtain from the artist's web page. I do have his permission. Is there a way to do that? Or should I rewrite? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jayvee69 (talk • contribs) 15:45, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The peson who owns the rights to the photograph is the photographer who took the picture, not the person who is the subject of the picture. That is who must release the rights.  If you wish to retain the description of transrealism then  . . ..well where did it originally come from?  One way is to put it in quotes and reference it to whom ever wrote it.  To whomever published it first. Some editors on wikipedia do not like long quotes but doing that would satisfy me.  Good luck.  Wikipedia is a complex place.  For example, must of the copyright laws that I have been using is American law.  If this is originating from Belgium there might be different laws that apply.

I have obtained the approval, by email, from the artist to use both the text from his webpage and the photo I have added. Is that sufficient? (If not I can rewrite the text.) Thanks! I have contacted the Wikipedia permission address that you posted, waiting for a reply there. Jayvee69 (talk) 17:36, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * You will need permission from the photographer, I am pretty sure of that, but don't worry until you hear back from the Permission Folks. Just be prepared.Carptrash (talk) 17:41, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Typically
when there is a phrase such as "was harshly criticized " there is a reference as to when and where and by whom this criticism took place. Also there is another "quote" in the article earlier that does not reference where the quote is from. These might be nice loose ends to tie up. Carptrash (talk) 18:23, 13 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Good points, one is easy. The other one is hearsay -- basically the artist recalls a row in the local newspapers. But there is no internet proof one way or another. It seems like a nice anecdote but I could delete it if it does live up to the standards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jayvee69 (talk • contribs) 00:27, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Well don't delete it,it doesn't bother me. I'm just using it as an example of the sort of thing that goes on around here. Carptrash (talk) 01:18, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
