Adding of pictures to articles edit

When you add a picture to an article, it is important to remember that we are creating an encyclopedia. It needs to be consistent. If you go back to the articles Gothic architecture and Cathedral you will see that every picture in those articles relates directly to the text that is in a nearby section or paragraph. Not one of those pictures were chosen randomly. The criteria is firstly: they illustrate the text or add information that enhances the accompanying text. Secondly: there has been an attempt in both articles to have a range of regions illustrated. Thirdly: they are all the best quality photos that are available. (For this reason, France, England and Germany may predominate, partly because of the large number of relevant buildings, but also because there are many good quality images. I would not use that chancel interior of yours in any general article, because of the low quality. It is only relevant to illustrating that particular church. There are many other views of chancels on Wikimedia Commons that are better from a photographic point of view.

So the message is, before adding anything, read carefully, look at the article, and see whether it is really the right place for your photo. I personally have taken dozens of photos of Gothic churches and cathedrals, but only a very few of my pictures appear in articles, because I always have to look and see if someone else has taken a better one.

Speedy deletion nomination of Jean Vodaine edit

 

Please do not create hoaxes on Wikipedia, as you did at Jean Vodaine. Doing so is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. –eggofreason(talk · contribs) 12:59, 28 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Jean Vodaine moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, Jean Vodaine, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Extra note: Apologies for marking your article as a hoax earlier—that was a rushed and botched nomination on my part. Once again, the article is just in draftspace, and hasn't been totally deleted. Sorry once more.eggofreason(talk · contribs) 14:02, 28 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
