@Largoplazo: Thanks for your introduction! One question: how do I add pictures to biography pages? It looks like you can't upload pics, you can only add wikimedia pictures. Is this the case? Lucymobe (talk) 15:28, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi! It's true that you can't display images on other sites here. However, for pictures for which you have publication rights, you can upload them and then add them to pages. See Wikipedia:Images for instructions and other details. Largoplazo (talk) 15:56, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

Article cleanup involving Arabic

Responding to your note on your user page, take a look at Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English and, specifically, the last major section on it at WP:PNTCU. There's a long list of pages in English but that appear to be translations and that could use some clean-up. A few of them are marked as either translations from Arabic or at least as having corresponding pages on Arabic Wikipedia that might be used to guide improvements. You might be able to help out with some of those so they can be removed from the list. Largoplazo (talk) 16:09, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
