Some cookies to welcome you!  

Welcome to Wikipedia, SethMatthieu! Thank you for your contributions. I am Antiqueight and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! ☕ Antiqueight chatter 16:52, 20 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

A bit more information as promised edit

Try going to this page for more info on editing as a beginning position and some names to perhaps start with when you create an article...User:Antiqueight/Octocon ☕ Antiqueight chatter 20:37, 20 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

PS -I think I mentioned this -Decolonising the internet. When you get home and get settled, have a go at editing a bit and them give me a yell. Despite the media, I've found folks to be fairly friendly and helpful unless you go around deleting their work or getting into contentious areas - for the first few edits stick to something simple until you get the hang of the policies or the styles. Some of the pages in the 'welcome' are good that way. And some of the pages on the link to the Octocon site I put up there help too. See you later. ☕ Antiqueight chatter 08:11, 24 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

 

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Orphaned non-free image File:Patricia Wrightson author photo.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Patricia Wrightson author photo.jpg. 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) 03:46, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
