I would be happy to get a forum from the community that is around me. Why is it we African at times lack just the faith in ourself that we can make it? From those that have made it their generations we would want to get aid from you so as to remove that stigma behavior in our culture.How best can we implement changes to our culture and countries so that we can have confidence in our selves.

Hi
Alois, I'd like to welcome you to Wikipedia, but I do have some unfortunate news. We have a very simple, very important rule for people who want to write an article about themselves:

Don't.

If you're notable enough, if you truly deserve an encyclopedia article, then surely someone else will think so, yes? Someone else, someone who is not a personal friend of yours, will know who you are and will want the encyclopedia to mention you.

Consequently, your article has been deleted.

I do hope that this does not discourage you from further participation in the project; we do not have enough Africans providing their knowledge. DS 13:43, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Adminblock.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Adminblock.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 13:04, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:P2070037.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:P2070037.JPG. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BigDT 01:23, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
