A belated welcome!
edit
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, KenHirsh. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Wikipedia
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! Marchjuly (talk) 00:46, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
Using non-free images
editHi KenHirsh. I just wanted to let you know that I have hidden an image file which was being mistakenly displayed in User:KenHirsh/sandbox. File:Uc-seal.png is a non-free image because Wikipedia considers it to be still under copyright protection. The usage of non-free content such as this file is pretty restricted and each usage is required to satisfy all 10 of the the non-free content criteria listed in WP:NFCCP. One these criteria is WP:NFCC#9 which states that non-free content may only be used (i.e., "displayed") in the article namespace, which means no user pages, sandboxes, templates, talk pages, etc. Non-free images may be linked to (i.e., "hid") like I have done above and like I did in your sandbox when they are being discussed, etc., but they should not be displayed. Please refer to Wikipedia:User pages#Non-free images for more details. Finally, feel free to ask any questions you may have about this either here or at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:47, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
