Thanks so much for the welcome, and the resource tips, Longhair. Very helpful! I am slowly making my way through it all. There's so much to learn. For instance, is it appropriate for me to reply to your message here on this page, or should I be going to your talk page to say thanks? RebBurton (talk) 01:59, 14 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
You can reply wherever you like. It's good practice to alert others when you reply on your own talk page by pinging them to notify them of your reply. -- Longhair\talk 02:01, 14 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. I will check that out as well (I thought there would be something like that). More reading.  :-) RebBurton (talk) 02:07, 14 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:ARTS Kirk-Dunn-and-Stitched-Glass-May-2019-Photo-Credits-Georgia-Kirkos-Jorjas-Photography-1024x640.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 03:25, 10 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi Bearcat,
Thank you for taking the time to explain this to me in detail (over a year ago now!). It clarified a lot of things for me. Very kind of you to help me out. I only get two weeks a year to work on Wiki stuff, and I forget everything in between. I'm going to try again, and hopefully do better out of the gate this time around (thanks to your explanations).TheaGala TheaGala 22:41, 21 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

Thanks again, and happy editing!
