Potentially controversial and libelous information needs exceptional sources

If you are going to create an article such as Media censorship in Zimbabwe, please make sure to add more sources and ones that are considered more trustworthy. Such as the NYT, WSJ, or Reuters over tabloid journalism sources. See wp:RS and wp:citations Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 04:28, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

Image uploads

If you don't own the copyright to the image, you can't upload it. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:02, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

I understand that part. However I'm not sure what constitutes me to have the rights to the image hence me asking.

Proposed deletion of News in the digital age

Hello, Faf120. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, News in the digital age, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

1. edit the page
2. remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
3. save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

• Hi! I know that the class is over, but I wanted to give you some advice with the article up for deletion. Unfortunately I have to agree with the nominator, Chrissymad over the deletion rationale for your article - it does read more like an essay than an encyclopedia article, especially as the article looks to be more written to frame properties created by Natalie Fenton. My recommendation here would be to see if any of this could be possibly merged to News_media#Online_journalism. My thought is that you may be able to very sparingly mention this in the section I linked to, but it must be brief and neutrally written. You should also try to find more sources about Fenton's properties, as one source may not be enough to show where these things would be worth mentioning in the main article.
