Hey Keep it up. I might suggest that you do line by line citations or at the minimum a citation for each paragraph. Sadads (talk) 23:57, 10 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Belgian Congo edit

Your edits are great and constructive, however, you make many statements which present analysis which need's to be cited under Wikipedia's policy, see WP:Verifiability. All of these great writing and effort you are making, may be subject to serious purging in the future if you don't include AT LEAST ONE FOOTNOTE PER PARAGRAPH. Accurate history about the Congo needs to be addressed and available, and Wikipedia is a great place to do this. However, because we should not partake in WP:Original Research, these statements need to be referenced. Very good work by the way, if you need any help, feel free to contact me.

Fair use rationale for File:King Bauduoin visits the school of the Force Publique in Luluabourg 1955.JPG edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:King Bauduoin visits the school of the Force Publique in Luluabourg 1955.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 22:59, 11 January 2011 (UTC)Reply


Disputed non-free use rationale for File:King Bauduoin visits the school of the Force Publique in Luluabourg 1955.JPG edit

 

Thank you for uploading File:King Bauduoin visits the school of the Force Publique in Luluabourg 1955.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. J Milburn (talk) 22:58, 19 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
