Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. ttonyb1 (talk) 05:22, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

If you wrote the entire article, why is this statement in it? "Photo credit: Jim Gardiner, Tolosa Press" ttonyb1 (talk) 05:38, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * "If you wrote the entire article, why is this statment in it? 'Photo credit: Jim Gardner, Tolosa Press'" is an absurd question. I am not the photographer, but the photographer gave me permission to use the photo he took of Steve Moss.  There was no justification for "ttonyb1" to remove the photo on March 14, 2009.  Since that time, others have edited this page, so I have not subsequently been the author of the "entire article."
 * Please replace the photograph. Kdmoss (talk) 16:41, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I wrote the article. Later, I obtained permission from Jim Gardner, the photographer, to include the photo he took of his then-employer, Steve Moss. Mr. Gardner is given the photo credit.  That is standard operating procedure for Wikipedia and any news organization's publication.  Please re-install the photograph you deleted. Kdmoss (talk) 17:18, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you have been adding your signature to some of your article contributions. This is a simple mistake to make and is easy to correct. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should use your signature only when contributing to talk pages, the Village Pump, or other such discussion pages. For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these type of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thank you for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! --Auric (talk) 04:12, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the article:

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Kdmoss! Your additions to Draft:Mike Stoker have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 17:10, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
