The article Michael Trent has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Wgolf (talk) 18:18, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

How can I add a picture to the page I created?
If you need to upload an image
- Make sure the image is not copyrighted. Only free images are allowed, with the exception of certain fair-use circumstances
- Go to https://commons.wikimedia.org. An shortcut link from Wikipedia is "commons:". Commons is our sister project where all of our free images are collected.
- Click "upload" on the top right (link: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard)
- Follow the step-by-step instructions! If you have any questions, click the link to the help desk.
- You'll chose the name for your upload. Once it's completed, you can add the image to your article by typing "[[File:FILE_NAME_HERE]]"
- You can change the orientation of your image. For example: [[File:Eddie Vedder.jpg]] will simply make the image pop up:
- However, [[File:Eddie Vedder.jpg|thumb|Your caption here|center|100px]] will make it show up like this:
- You can modify the parameters to suit your needs for the article. This is a very basic rundown, so feel free to take a look at Wikipedia:Image use policy and don't be afraid to ask for assistance at Commons if you need help. However I hope my explanation was useful and let me know if you have any other questions! Oh, and if you don't have an image to upload, feel free to search Commons for pictures already there! Any of those can be used in Wikipedia articles. Swarm X 19:17, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
