Welcome!

Hello, Carolinefcmeijer, and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits, such as the ones to the page Iceboat, show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.

Did you know that ...
 * ...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
 * ...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
 * ...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
 * ...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
 * ...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process – at least until you get the hang of things?

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type  on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Your image at Iceboat
Hi Caroline,

You appear to be new to Wikipedia, so you may not understand that the purpose of images in an article is to illustrate the content. Your image shows two people standing in front of a DN-class iceboat. This does not appear to illustrate any point being made in the article, which already shows images of DNs in action. I tried to make that clear with my edit comment: ''Thank you, but in the post below, I said, "Thank you, but this is not a site for posting pictures. This image doesn't explain anything new or different about a DN, which is a classic design." Please discuss how this contributes to the article at Talk:Iceboat.'' I hope that this helps.
