I now have the photo up, but need help with citation.

Also need someone to review the article Thanks Richard

Welcome
Thanks for the clean up and review. Now the problem is with the Title- there are 2 "the"

Need help to change the title to: Lamp of Brotherhood. This form better conveys the meaning of the inscription “Fraternitatis Lumen.” Inscriptions on the photos all refer to an organization to be know as "Lampada," not "The Brotherhood."

Comments and requests
Hi, just a suggestion that if you are having a problem with an article, place your comments and suggestions in the article's talk page. That way the comments/suggestions will be seen by editors. Placing them on your own talk page will not lead to results since no one is watching your talk page with the aim of making improvements to articles. Cheers. BC talk to me  04:37, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Suggestions for your lamp article
Hi again. The history section of Lamp of the Brotherhood has much useful information. That information should be available via your references. I can't see any of this information anywhere. That information should have come from a reputable source, and I would make sure you include that source in the reference section, otherwise the information could be considered original research and be deleted. Also, make sure your citations have direct relevance to the information being cited, i.e. the information being cited should actually exist in your cited sources. For instance you cited a Vancouver parks page. There should be mention of the lamp and on that page in the context of it being a "focal point" of the ceremony. I couldn't find any mention of it. The information could be in another source you may have. Such unsourced information could eventually be removed. Just trying to help. Regards. BC talk to me  05:14, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

A book reference
You may be interested in this book:

It has a few paragraphs on the history of the Lamp of Brotherhood, which I have used to add to the article. There is a footnote in the book which I can't read online. It could be a reference to the author's source. I don't plan to follow it up, but if you're interested you might.--Srleffler (talk) 08:55, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
