User talk:Chesshti

October 2015
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Paula Franzese. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:22, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Saying that someone is "deeply committed" and that they have "pioneered" is expressing value judgements. Also, the mere fact that an award has been given does not justify inclusion in an article: it is necessary that the award be significant.

Request for information
Can you tell me what your connection to Paula Franzese is? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:37, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
 * It looks as though you have decided not to answer, since you have edited since I posted this message. However, it no longer matters, since the reason I asked was to help determine the copyright status of a file you uploaded to Wikimedia commons, but the file has now been deleted as a copyright infringement anyway. However, please be careful over copyright, and bear in mind that repeated copyright infringements can lead to being blocked from editing.

Hi-->I did not see your response until now. I am Professor Franzese's research assistant. She sent me the pictures to post on wikipedia. She owns the picture, but felt it would be best to include a credit to the photographer who took the picture. That being the case, and that she owns the picture, can I post it on wikipedia with her permission? Thanks. Chesshti (talk) 12:48, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

Thank you. I do not have any other changes to make other than the picture, which I posted. For the future, I will familiarize myself with the policies. Chesshti (talk) 14:37, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
