Some concerns edit
Hi Laura Kina, while your motive appears worthy, I'm concerned that a lot of the articles you're creating start as drafts linked to the subjects' websites. Then once they're expanded into article space, they sometimes become overtly promotional in content, or are little more than resumes, with long listings of exhibition histories that aren't adequately sourced or don't indicate the significance of the shows. In short, the articles appear inclined toward promotional tone. Do you have a WP:COI regarding the subjects? And have the articles been written in part by the subjects themselves? In total, this may merit some further overview from objective editors. At the least, a lot of clean-up looks necessary. Thanks, 2601:188:0:ABE6:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 18:50, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

Image permission edit
Hi Laura - I know that this comes after the course, but I wanted to let you know that you need to get Yoshimoto to file a ticket with WP:OTRS giving Wikipedia permission to use the image File:JaveYoshimoto portrait.jpg. They have to specifically file something with Wikipedia that states that they give us permission to use it or it's seen as a copyright violation, even if they gave you permission. The other thing to take into consideration with this is that him filing this ticket would put the image under a Creative Commons license, meaning that he would not own the copyright per se and that anyone can use it for pretty much any reason. This can also be problematic if Yoshimoto isn't the person who owns the copyright on the image, as sometimes magazines or other publications will take someone's photo and give them permission to use it, but will ultimately be the one who owns the copyright on the photograph. You definitely need to get this taken care of or the image is almost certainly going to be deleted. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:43, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
