Your feedback edit

I noticed your feedback. The box at the top right is called an "infobox", and you can read about them at Help:Infobox. I suggest you copy the example from Template:Infobox scientist#Blank and then fill in some of the data. -- John of Reading (talk) 22:34, 10 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Infoboxes edit

Typing in Template:Infobox into the Wikipedia search bar and then finding the right infobox might help. Just saw your feedback to the cheatsheat. Did you get your questions answered? Best. Biosthmors (talk) 20:14, 17 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Great. Thanks for having the patience to stick around, give us feedback, and wait until someone helped you. There's usually always someone willing to help, it's just a matter of finding them. =) Best wishes. Biosthmors (talk) 21:49, 17 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Picture copyrights edit

I see that you've managed to upload commons:File:Chester Whitley Ph.D. M.D..jpg. But if you follow that link you will see that someone has tagged it for deletion. You need to give more information:

  • Who holds the copyright to the picture? (Usually that will be the person who took the picture)
  • What rights is the copyright-holder willing to give up so that the picture can be accepted at Commons?
  • How do we know that the copyright-holder is happy to give up these rights?

For the second question, the acceptable answers are usually those described by the templates Commons:Template:PD-author and Commons:Template:Cc-by-3.0. For the third question, if you didn't take the picture yourself then the person needs to send an email, as described at Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries.

I'm sorry this is complicated! -- John of Reading (talk) 08:05, 19 January 2013 (UTC) amended the third question -- John of Reading (talk) 16:11, 22 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
