License tagging for Image:Picture 052.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Picture 052.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 17:11, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Issues
Also, there is a more serious issue that I'd like to discuss: uploading images. You attempted to upload Image:Picture 053.jpg, but that picture already existed! The image was previously a picture of the platform at a Yekaterinburg Metro station (which was in the article!), and it shouldn't be replaced with your image.

Remember: always attach a license to any image you upload! If you took a picture of yourself, release into Public Domain. If you are the "author" of the picture, this will be good for all involved. And make sure than an image exists before overwriting it. An image called "Willno51.jpg" might be appropriate. It's okay for you to have your own image on Wikipedia. But please release it under the GFDL.

Also, you shouldn't put that you're a "Teenager from England" in the Matt Williams article. That might be true, but suppose that ALL people named "Matt Williams" were listed in that article. Then it would be huge! So Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while it isn't paper, we only include the most important people named "Matt Williams." If you do something really important, you might have an article one day! But until then, please understand that you don't have a place in Wikipedia yet. I don't either. :)

On the same note, do not use your Wikipedia user page as a myspace. If you have a user name and a user page, it is generally expected that you help Wikipedia become a better encyclopedia. If you're using your user page as a "home page" for other people to see, it may be deleted. I'm not saying that you're doing that; but please don't if you are.

Thanks for reading, and please help Wikipedia by contributing to it! Happy editing! Grace notes T  &#167; 02:25, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
