Tag on Image:MarkCronin.jpg
Greetings! I see you have uploaded an image of yourself at Image:MarkCronin.jpg. My question is about the tag on the image. Should this actually be, since you are the subject of the photo and have the copyright thusly? Or did you take this yourself on a tripod and self-timer? I'm not disputing that you can release it; I just want to clarify which side of the camera you were on. Regards, —C.Fred (talk) 18:29, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

You are right! It should be. I will make the change if I can. Podusa (talk) 22:43, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

Re: Howard Stern Show page
Hello OwenX

''I am a former staff member of Howard Stern and would like to add information to some pages that are now semi-protected. How do I save my edits?''

 * Hi Mark,


 * I appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to help Wikipedia. However, we have policies against editors writing articles about themselves or their own work, which would be the case with you editing the Howard Stern Show page. We make it a point to base everything here on independently-verifiable public sources, which is why personal knowledge of the subject matter, as in your case, is often a hindrance.
 * If you still want to help fixing mistakes or filling in some glaring omissions, your best bet is to leave a note on that page's Talk page (which is rarely protected), and let a more experienced editor handle it. Or you can gain more experience with Wikipedia as an editor, at which point you'd be able to edit those pages yourself.
 * I realize it sounds counter-productive to keep experts out of using their expertise here, but that's the only way a project of this scale could utilize such a large volunteer workforce. Owen&times; &#9742;  00:39, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
