Image upload
A suitable template you could use would be. Type that into the summary textbox on the upload page, along with any other information you'd like to mention. The full list of image copyright tags can be found at WP:ICT, and I'll be glad to help if you need any. :) Regards, Sango  123   (talk)  22:31, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Editing and images
Sorry its taken me so long to get back to you Matt. As for your question, there is no single ideal procedure for adding your images to articles. First thing though, you have to try to be as objective as possible and ask yourself whether there really is space and/or a need for your image in the article. If you're convinced of its relevence and quality, it isn't a problem to simply slot it into the article or replace a similar but inferior image. Sometimes you might find it is a good idea to leave a friendly note on the talk page to let the contributors know the reason for the replacement if it has the potential to be controversial. As long as you are polite and objective, nobody is going to bite! Hope that helps. Again, sorry I took so long to reply. Diliff  | (Talk)   (Contribs) 16:57, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Featured picture candidates/Ancient Egypt map
I've added some info to the image description page of Featured picture candidates/Ancient Egypt map, and made an explanation of the map. Is this satisfactory? Thanks, Jeff Dahl (Talk • contribs) 19:39, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Update added. Cairo and Jerusalem, as reference cities, now have black dots and italics to set them apart. Jeff Dahl (Talk • contribs) 18:03, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
