Welcome!

Hello, DelanyBB, and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.

Did you know that ...

• ...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
• ...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
• ...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
• ...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
• ...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process - at least until you get the hang of things?

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. JarrahTree JarrahTree 14:58, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Note

Starting to upload from one user name

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/DelanyB

then doing the same a week later from DelanyBB

is a problem, it is not how wikipedia works.

Also uploading images to redirect pages is a problem.

Before you try doing any of your 3 photo uploads again, please read WP:ABOUT, WP:NOT and also some of the issues the links are in the text above.

messages always go at the botttom of the page, and signatures at the end of the message.

You need to check that when you add a photo, that is clearly identifiably adequately free of any restrictions as far as what the instructions say.

much better if you look around at other articles how they work. read things before you get too carried away with uploading to redirect pages ...

photos must be with articles not redirect...

read things, have a look around. im off. JarrahTree 15:23, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

ok thanks for being patient with the newbie {DelanyBB (talk) 15:28, 12 January 2016 (UTC)}
