21:06:09, 12 March 2016 review of submission by Jon Ingram 33
I have been asked to provide obituaries to confirm notability. I have managed to find copies in The Times Newspaper (Thursday 8 March 2001) and Independent Newspaper (Friday 6 April 2001). These I have in the form of an email, which I would be happy to attach but would need advice on how to do that.

I also have a hard copy of an entry from Who's Who (a publication of notability for people in the UK). Again, I would be happy to attach this with advice on how to do so.

I believe these documents should be adequate to prove notability.

It would also be useful to have your advice on how to upload a photograph. I have been sent an image by the National Portrait Gallery in London, who have given me permission to use the image. Again, I would like your advice on how to upload this as part of the entry.

Please could you advise me on how to provide all these supporting documents so that the entry can be uploaded?

Many thanks,

Jonathan Ingram


 * Hi, There is no need to email the obituaries or Who's Who entry. Simply use them as references after material in the draft that they support. You can use other templates in the cite family to do so, such as . Just fill in what I've left out: the author's names if one is credited, the title, the page number if available, and the quote from the piece that supports the content where cited (omit the quote if it would be more than a few sentences). Use the cite book template for Who's Who. There are many similarly-titled Who's Who directories. Be sure to specify the title and publisher precisely.


 * With regard to the photograph, these two guides contain the community's collected wisdom on how to do it:
 * Requesting copyright permission
 * Example requests for permission
 * You may also find Donating copyrighted materials informative, even though in this case you are not the donor. --Worldbruce (talk) 01:50, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
