Welcome

Hello, CENA LUV, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• Community Portal
• The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style

I hope you will enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! You can sign your name on talk and voting pages using four tildes, (~~~~), which produces your username, the time, and the date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump, or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

Please stop adding Category:New Yorkers to pages. The correct category to use is Category: People from New York. Thanks -- getcrunkjuice^contribs 00:06, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

You said People from New York are New Yorkers! If you live in New York, you would totally agree. Stop deleting people from that category. And by the way, the category said it needs help! So you should follow the rules if you really are a true mod!

1. People from New York are people from New York. The "people from x" category format is used throughout Wikipedia. Thus I will not stop deleting people from that improper category.
2. I've removed the "needs help" tag from the category because it no longer needs help: all its contents have been moved to Category: People from New York.
3. Those are the rules, I am following them (even though I'm not an ADMIN, which I think you were referring to).

If you wish, you can further subcategorize people by placing them in categories of NY boroughs (like Category: People from New York City). Thanks for understanding. -- getcrunkjuice^contribs 20:02, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree with you that people from New York are New Yorkers.. but it is more encyclopedic to say "People from New York".. besides, there are already hundreds of articles in the "people from New York" category. By the way, it is appreciated if you sign your comments on TALK pages (with ~~~~). -- getcrunkjuice^contribs 22:32, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Images

If the other sites' pictures are free (like if they are photos taken by a government worker, or really old photos) and qualify as public domain, you just upload the picture, put a copyright tag and CITE the source. If they are copyrighted photos (most likely), you upload them as Fair use. It is recommended that you include a "fair use rationale". Here's more info from a template, Template:UploaderHints.

Hello!

Thanks for uploading some pictures to Wikipedia. I wanted to make sure you were aware of some of the requirements and good practices for uploaded images.

• Pick an image name.

When uploading an image, pick a file name that is descriptive, and unique. Remember that many images may be uploaded about the same topic, and remember that names are case sensitive.

• Source the image.

On the image description page, explain where the image came from. If you created the image yourself, then say so. If it's from the web, give a URL. If it's a screenshot of a movie or game, or a scan from a book, give the title.

• Provide copyright and license information.

This part is a little bit trickier, but it's very important. The copyright of the image generally belongs to whomever created it.

If it's a photograph you took, or an image you created (modifying an image that already exists doesn't count) in software like Photoshop or GIMP, then you own the copyright. To upload it to Wikipedia, you must agree to license it under the GFDL (which allows anyone to use it, but requires that they give credit to the original author and requires that any further edit to the image be licensed under the GFDL as well) or release it into the public domain (which allows anyone to use it for any purpose without restriction.) Do this by placing an appropriate tag on the image description page, like {{GFDL}} or {{PD}}. Be sure to mention that you created the image. If you're using {{PD}}, you may also want to use {{NoRightsReserved}}, since there is some dispute as to whether one may grant items into the public domain.

If you didn't create the image, or the copyright somehow belongs to another party (like a screenshot, which you might "create", but the copyright belongs to the author of the movie or video game), then you need to find another tag that describes the copyright status of the image. Images used on Wikipedia need to be free for our use and the use of sites which reproduce our content. This means that images cannot have a restriction such as "only for use by Wikipedia", or "for non-commercial use only", or "for educational use". Images without a free license may be usable in certain articles under fair use, but such a use should be justified on the image description page.

• Describe the image.

To another reader, the image may not be immediately understood. A caption in an article doesn't explain the image to a visitor who sees it on its image page. Put a brief explanation of what is in the image on the image description page, similar to what you might include in a caption on an article.

Copyrights, Copyright tags, Fair use, Image description page, Public domain, Images for deletion, Possibly unfree images, Copyright problems, Uploading images

Thanks again for your contributions. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me at my talk page.

By the way, I removed your comments from my talk page because they were unsigned, I usually remove unsigned comments from my talk page (it's my thing). -- getcrunkjuice^contribs 22:42, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Since Image:Normal 023.jpg is most likely a fair-use image, you need to add a fair use tag to the image. Since the image isn't an album cover or movie poster, you should include a "fair use rationale" too.

If the image is indeed under a free license, you need to give proof that the author has given you permisiion to use it. -- getcrunkjuice^contribs 01:37, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Image:Normal misc01.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded, Image:Normal misc01.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 23:18, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

More sockpuppets

You were caught creating additional sockpuppets. For this reason, your block has been extended to six weeks. Once again, during that time, you are not permitted to edit the Wikipedia, either with this account or with any other account. Any further instances will result in a permanent block on sight. Your abuse has continued long enough. Sit out this block and do not create any more sockpuppets and you will be welcome to resume editing in six weeks. --Yamla 01:17, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

You were caught yet again editing from an abusive sockpuppet account. As a result, you have been blocked indefinitely. You are not to edit Wikipedia, you are not to create a new account, and you are not to induce your friends or associates to edit for you. Your behaviour is abusive and unacceptable and you have been warned over and over and over again. Please understand this means you are forbidden from editing or adding content to the Wikipedia. Any content you create or edit for the duration of this ban will be reverted on sight and the accounts blocked permanently. If you wish to edit again or wish one of your friends to edit for you, your only acceptable choice is to request unblocking. Add {{unblock|Reason for unblocking}} to this page and your request will be considered. Once again, your actions are seriously and deliberately harmful to the Wikipedia and you are no longer welcome to edit here or have your friends edit for you. --Yamla 02:41, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
