Welcome to Wikipedia


Hello, Rsansevere. I'm Orlady, another volunteer editor. I see that you tried, unsuccessfully, to add an infobox and image to the article about William Durden. Maybe I can help you solve the problems you encountered there.

First off, images used in Wikipedia must be hosted on a Wikimedia website and generally must have a suitable "free" license. If you have a photo of Durden that you own the license for (for example, because you took the picture yourself on your personal camera) and you are willing to share it with the world, you can donate it at Wikimedia Commons -- see commons.wikimedia.org.

Second, the infobox formats can be tricky, and there are different formats for different categories of people. See Template:Infobox person for guidance on creating them (and more information than you probably need).

Finally, since I want to welcome you here, I should give you a standard welcome message. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out the Wikipedia Teahouse or Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! --Orlady (talk) 18:54, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
