Try as I might, license in hand, et al., I cannot get the photo (Pam & Alan Ross, c.1973) uploaded/inserted into my Pam & Alan Ross page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wm ross (talk • contribs) 03:25, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
 * "License in hand"? It looks like you uploaded a photo of a photo and called it "own work". This will likely cause the photo to be deleted from Commons because it is improperly licensed. The original photograph's copyright is the relevant one.
 * Fortunately for you, a photo is not important for a draft, so I suggest you wait until your draft is accepted before attempting to illustrate it with photos.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 21:58, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Pam & Alan Ross, from its old location at User:Wm ross/sandbox/Pam & Alan Ross. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Nathan2055talk - contribs 21:24, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

 * It saddens me to have invested literally a month of my time in putting together the page on Pam & Alan Ross several years ago. In hindsight, I never should've tackled that but perhaps instead maybe would have better put my efforts instead into "wm Alan Ross," my brand as a solo artist the past 30 years (I have five solo albums out under that name and a decent online presence.) My dilemma is this: I have recorded professionally for parts of seven decades continually, going back to when I was part of the folk group Children of Rain on Dot Records (see Wikipedia) in New York City in the mid-1960s. The dilemma is that I have recorded under five different names during that seven-decade time expanse, and Pam & Alan Ross (the third name change following Children of Rain and Ross Legacy, the latter whom recorded on Philips in the late 1960s) was the most prominent iteration of Pam and me (we headed up those two earlier groups just mentioned) that included our move to Nashville and to country music in late 1969. The P&A Ross segment was our biggest "splash," so to speak, appearing on over 300 Nashville TV shows over a six-year period in the late '60s through the mid-'70s. We finally released our first of two scheduled albums under the name Pam & Alan Ross back in late 2020, "Visions." Really, what I should have done is opened a page called "wm Alan Ross" and placed all these earlier configurations underneath that umbrella. But, honestly, my spirit and will are sorely lacking for tackling the Wiki maze again. It's extremely difficult to find digital links for activity that took place in the analog era. I wouldn't have that problem if I put out a page under "wm Alan Ross," as I said, but because the work I put into the P&A Ross "draft," I just feel I'm kind of done.
