Speedy deletion of "Charles Samuel Richter House"
edit
A page you created, Charles Samuel Richter House, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it has no content, other than external links, categories, "see also" sections, rephrasing of the title, and/or chat-like comments.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thank you. Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 19:26, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, I created a stub article for the house, since it's listed on the National Register of Historic Places. I noticed you tried to put an image in the article, but since the image resides on your own web site, Wikipedia can't display it in an article. You can upload the image to Wikipedia using the "Upload file" link to the left. Wikipedia:Images explains how to do this, or you can ask me if you have further questions. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 19:46, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
The image you tried to insert seems to be your own creation, so copyright shouldn't be a problem as long as you release it with a GFDL-compatible license. But please be aware that many editors would prefer to have an actual photo than a painting. However, the painting will be adequate as an image until a photo is uploaded. Additionally, when such a photo is uploaded, there will be no reason that I can think of why we cannot keep both images.
If you need help with uploading your image to the Wikipedia database, you can ask Elkman, who wrote the above comment. If he's not available, maybe I will be, and I am willing to help you as well. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 21:46, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Johnson-Russ-Mr-Oswald-left-town.jpg
edit
Thank you for uploading File:Johnson-Russ-Mr-Oswald-left-town.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Armbrust, B.Ed. Let's talk aboutabout my edits? 06:24, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
