I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make mistakes at some point, here is what Wikipedia is not, which might help you out. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages, add a question to the village pump, or ask me. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing! User:Mys e kurity|Mysekurity ]] additions | e-mail]] 00:23, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks for adding the picture of Dedan Kimathi, but you might especially want to take a look at the Image tutorial. Again, welcome!

Image tagging
I noticed the two images you uploaded to Dedan Kimathi are not tagged. Please go to that page, and put an appropriate tag, as well as the source of the photograph (which I noticed you did, but a link would be helpful). Thanks again for adding to such an important, yet undernoticed article. -User:Mys e kurity|Mysekurity ]] additions | e-mail]]02:21, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Copyright
Hi, it's great that you are adding information about people who are famous in Kenya, like Bamboo (lyricist), but please don't copy directly from other sources because its copyvio and wikipedia can get in trouble. It's better to write just a couple of sentences of your own to establish importance, and then link to the source. Kappa 22:20, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Lucykibaki.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Lucykibaki.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Carnildo or ask for help at Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you.

Image Tagging Image:Kimathi.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Kimathi.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Longhair 11:02, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
