Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Wayamba royal college has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.google.lk/imgres?imgurl=http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/object3/1986/63/s55385715796_7825.jpg&imgrefurl=http://hi-in.facebook.com/posted.php?id=54553099396&share_id=54991947759&comments=1&usg=__UWUefA-WS1w43A8GBVfgY1vVEuo=&h=109&w=100&sz=5&hl=en&start=22&zoom=0&tbnid=o0bNsBD3pK7brM:&tbnh=85&tbnw=78&prev=/images?q=wayamba+royal+college&um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&sa=N&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&biw=1366&bih=557&tbs=isch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=971&vpy=149&dur=247&hovh=85&hovw=78&tx=89&ty=60&ei=ohZ2TPiQJ5LAuAPcv6WWBg&oei=lxZ2TMPuBsuWceSnzOIF&esq=2&page=2&ndsp=24&ved=1t:429,r:13,s:22. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. an image file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Uploading photos
Hi, the best way of uploading photos is to go to Upload and follow the instructions there. Uploaded photos must be public domain or creative commons with attribution, see the upload page for links to detailed explanations of what these terms mean. Once uploaded on Commons, images can be shown in Wikipedia and any of the sister projects in the normal way (see Picture tutorial).

Additional points to note: A simple standard guide is at Help:Files. Thanks, Fæ (talk) 07:31, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) You have to have an account on Commons, this may have already been created under the same name and password as your Wikipedia account (see Special:MergeAccount, for a summary of where your account has been created on other projects).
 * 2) If your photo is not taken by you, then you must be absolutely clear about the source and permission from the copyright owner or photographer when you upload. It may be easier to load the photo to Flickr first, change the licence there to 'Attribution Creative Commons'. This has the advantage of making the upload a lot easier, avoids questions about who your friend is and what the evidence of permission is and the photo gets verified automatically by a bot sometime after upload. If the photo does get challenged for evidence of permission you may need to follow the OTRS process and confidentially supply an email from your friend with a declaration of their release into the public domain; yes it's a drag but it may be worth reading through the information on the OTRS page for your information. An alternative is to email your photo, see Contact us/Photo submission, but this may take a few days before getting processed.
 * 3) To upload, the photo needs to be on your local hard-drive. Don't worry too much about cropping and editing, this can be done by uploading improved versions after the original is uploaded.
 * 4) The photo may have information on the file in the form of EXIF image data added by the camera. This will be visible after upload so make sure you are happy that the make of camera, when it was taken etc. will be consistent with your upload information.
 * 5) The photo can be checked using TinEye after upload, so if it appears on websites which claim 'All right reserved' or similar then it may get marked for deletion.
 * 6) If you have some difficult questions about copyright they can be raised on Media copyright questions for a definitive answer.

Thank you for your recent contributions. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft version first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, without the risk of speedy deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you. Fæ (talk) 07:33, 26 August 2010 (UTC)



Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the article Wayamba royal college, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition was deleted under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text—which means allowing other people to modify it—then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You may also e-mail or mail the Foundation to release the content. See Donating copyrighted materials for more.

While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright concerns very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page.
