Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/BBK
Dear assitant

I need to put the logo and few small pictures of ice cream products after receiving the confirmation I wish you support help for making this hope.

 * If you took the ice cream product pictures yourself, they don't show any copyrighted logos or the like, and you are willing to release them under a free license such as the CC-BY-SA 3.0 License, you can upload them to the Wikimedia Commons via their Upload Wizard. The logo is probably copyrighted, and I doubt the copyright holder would be willing to release it under a free license that would allow anybody to modify and re-use it for any purpose, including commercial purposes. Thus the logo cannot be uploaded to the Commons. We can still claim fair use for such images and upload them to Wikipedia itself, but Wikipedia's non-free content criteria say non-free images must be used in articles proper, not in drafts. Thus you cannot upload the logo before the draft has been accepted. Once the images are uploaded, the picture tutorial explains how to add them to an article.
 * That said, your draft currently has large swathes of off-topic content on the history of ice cream in general that's irrelevant to the company the draft is supposed to be about. I also found the references unhelpfully vague. Take for example this one: Know-how and technology of ice cream: Baharak Chegeni engineer, Mr. A. Mshkvh. Is that a book, a peer-reviewed paper? When was it published, and by whom? I don't think I could find that work in a library without additional information. Huon (talk) 20:12, 17 April 2013 (UTC)


 * No, you cannot use Wikipedia to promote or advertise your company. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 07:55, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Mary Collins Ammirato
I'm trying to gather more information on this poet and artist and a friend suggested i start a page here. Some music woman (retired teacher i guess) dumped the page because the sources were not verified. I wrote what I know about the artist. If some one could help, rather than show off their edit skills, I would appreciate it. Kind regards to the nice people on the web. artisticmanatee Artisticmanatee (talk) 16:24, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

 * I'm not quite sure what kind of help you're asking for. Wikipedia does not consider itself a reliable source, and I couldn't tell what kind of source "Academie Julian" is. Wikipedia content should be based on reliable published sources that are independent of the subject, such as newspaper articles or articles in reputable music magazines. Unfortunately I don't know of any such sources that cover Ammirato. Huon (talk) 20:43, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
