African wax print
Hey, thanks for starting this article! I changed some of the formatting and added the unreferenced template. Please let me know if you want help with that! Cheers, Melchoir (talk) 08:43, 5 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Hey Melchoir, thanks for helping me. As you can see I am quite new here. I would like to upload some pictures (fotos I made in Africa) of the some wax prints. How can I do this? Could you also tell me, how I can enter references?
 * Thanks Jule


 * For uploading pictures, I would recommend using Wikimedia Commons instead of uploading directly to the English Wikipedia. There's a decent introduction at First steps.
 * For references, there are instructions at Help:Footnotes. Basically, you use alongside the text in the body, and it gets displayed to the reader wherever you put Reflist. If you're unsure how it works, you can just use the "Show preview" button liberally until you get the hang of it! Melchoir (talk) 05:20, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Copyright problem: African wax print
Hi again, sorry for the trouble, but please read the following message:

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as African wax print, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to contain material copied from http://www.karibu-design.com/blogs/news/3470192-what-is-african-wax-print-fabric, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:


 * If you have permission from the author to release the text under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC-BY-SA), leave a message explaining the details at Talk:African wax print and send an email with confirmation of permission to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org".

 * If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted "under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC-BY-SA), version 3.0, or that the material is released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:African wax print with a link to where we can find that note.

Update regarding copyright concern
Since we do not yet have verification of permission by the processes set out above and sufficient time has passed since the placement of the notice, the article has been deleted for copyright concerns. This deletion is not necessarily permanent. If you have already sent a letter to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA) and GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) (if you are not the copyright holder or have co-authored the material, release under CC-BY-SA-compatible license alone is sufficient), the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed by the Wikimedia Communications committee. Likewise, if you have not yet sent a letter, you still may (or resend it, if you believe your original may have been lost), and the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed.

As Wikipedia does not require proof of identity on account creation, it is essential that we receive external proof of authorization in order to ensure that we remain compliant with US Copyright law. It is also essential that we verify that copyright holders understand the extent of the release they are authorizing, in that our licenses permit modification and reuse in any forum, even commercial publication, as long as authorship credit is maintained and future copies are compatibly licensed.

Please note that once permission is verified, the material may be evaluated and altered to meet Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Although we appreciate donations, we cannot guarantee that material donated will be retained.

Thank you. Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:45, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
