== Searching for Category ==

I am looking for a Category of Hospitals in Dublin.

*There's really very little alternative to deletion when it comes to that image. [[WP:NFCC]] is the full policy, but the short version is this: we can only use copyrighted material if it meets a list of ten conditions. One of those ten conditions is that the image cannot possibly be replaced by a free image. In the case of a picture of a living person, it's ''always'' possible to replace it with a free image, because someone could walk up to him, take a picture, and release it to us.

== I have created an article: ArchiFM please verify and suggest necessary changes ==

The article was 3 times not accepted. I added references, I changed the text more neutral but still not accepted. I can see in the encyclopedia similar articles. No I am without any idea what to do...
[[User:Ptuczai|Ptuczai]] ([[User talk:Ptuczai|talk]]) 13:10, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
:Hi, [[User:Ptuczai|Ptuczai]]. I would suggest finding one or two more reliable sources that discuss the subject in detail. Some good places to start would be Google News, Google Books (often reliable), and professional-looking and serious websites (these seem to be fairly common). <sup>[[User: King jakob c 2|<span style="color:red;">King</span>]]</sup> [[User talk: King jakob c 2|<span style="color:green;">Jakob</span>]] <sub>[[Special:Contributions/King jakob c 2|<span style="color:blue;">C2</span>]]</sub> 14:34, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
::Grettings Ptuczai and welcome to the teahouse. I took a quick look at the article I think you are talking about: [[Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/ArchiFM]] Here is some of my feedback. Note this is based on a very quick look so I may get some things wrong about the article. It seems that all your references right now are internal white papers and reports. Those are OK but not great for notability. One problem is that they are inherently biased, they are a company defining their own product. Better sources would be independent journals, magazines, conference papers, newspaper articles, etc. Another issue is that right now all your references are just raw URLs. So as a user when I look at them I have no idea if they are from some guy working in his mom's basement or some PhD from MIT. Here is a real example of some editing I did to give you a concrete idea. On the article [[The Lady in the Lake]] there was a reference to a NY Times review of the movie version of the book. As it was in the article before I editied it, it just looked like this in the references: http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9C04E3DE123EEE3BBC4C51DFB766838C659EDE  I changed the ref to put it into actual Wikipedia markup so that now it looks like this: " "Lady in the Lake". New York Times. January 24, 1947. Retrieved 16 July 2013..." You can still click on the reference to go to the NY Times web site if you want but now you can look at it and get a lot more info than just that its on the NY Times web site.(Actually a better example would have been one where the author of the article was documented but I imagine you get the idea.) So if I were you the first thing I would do is 1) Convert all existing URL refs to the better Wiki style and 2) Find additional references that aren't internal publications and hence more objective. The best way to create good references is to use the Cite tool in the editor. It will pop up a form with various fields (most optional) and then generate the Wiki code for you. Hope that was useful.

== Reliable Sources ==

:It generally would be. There are always exception cases, so it's hard to give a firm answer without knowing exactly what you want to say using exactly what item as a source.

I would like to add information about a medical clinic and its founder, who has a profile on Forbes.  I would like to cite information from Forbes about when the clinic was started and the medical associations that the founder belongs to.  Do you think it would be reliable in this case?  Thank you![[User:Docia49|Docia49]] ([[User talk:Docia49|talk]]) 08:01, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

::I was using Forbes to add a source to the lead paragraph of the Burzynski Clinic article where it states that it was founded in 1976 (Forbes says 1977) and I was also trying to add that he is a private practice physician in Houston under the section, 'Stanislaw Burzynski.'

:: Looks like [[Burzynski Clinic]]. - [[User:David Biddulph|David Biddulph]] ([[User talk:David Biddulph|talk]]) 14:43, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
:::Just wanted to point out if the article in question is [[Burzynski Clinic]] that its a very controversial topic. Burzynski has alternative treatments for cancer. People tend to feel very strongly about him. Some think he is a dangerous huckster and some that he's a savior persecuted by the AMA and FDA. (I have strong opinions myself but trying to keep them out of what I type here) So, I think the standards for a good source may be a bit more rigorous than on other articles. A Forbes article about a businessman would be almost certainly a good reference. On someone who is making scientific claims there may be more of an issue. You may know this already Docia49 but a good place to look for these kinds of issues is on the talk page of the article, for the Burzynski article the talk page is: [[Talk:Burzynski_Clinic]] I looked there and as I suspected there is a lot of discussion.

::::::Thank you for your comments.  I just used the Forbes article to source the statement,"The Burzynski Clinic is a clinic in Texas, United States founded in 1976" which is already in the article, but unsourced. I changed it to say 1977 because that is when the Burzynski clinic and Forbes state that it was founded.  However, I just sourced Forbes for that statement.  I also tried to add that Burzynski has a private practice in Houston, Texas under the Stanislaw Burzynski section of the article which I saw on Forbes, but that was removed also because I was told it is not a reliable source. Besides the Burzynski Clinic and Forbes, what would be a reliable source for the founding date?  And, do you think it is too controversial to add that Burzynski is a private practice physician in Houston?

== Notables ==

It seems like notability is tricky issue on Wikipedia.  It makes sense why it would be.  If my article was rejected based on the issue of the subject not being notable is it possible that my presentation of the subject was poorly executed?  Could a better representation make a clearer case for notability?  
[[User:Dweeksutah|Dweeksutah]] ([[User talk:Dweeksutah|talk]]) 05:36, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
:Hi [[User:Dweeksutah|Dweeksutah]] and welcome. In the end, notability is judged by other editors and they will review the sources that you have used in your article to determine if they meet the [[WP:PEOPLE|standard for notable people]]. When thinking about sources, you may find this [[WP:42|simple resource]] helpful. I have searched for reliable sources that would help you demonstrate notability for John Aziz and I could not find anything that would help you get your article through [[WP:AfC]]. Other editors might have a different view, but I think it might be best to keep the article as a draft in your userspace until reliable sources can be found. I hope this has been of some help.

== WATCHER ==

What is the "watcher" (under the Number of Watchers) in the Revision History area?

Does this provide an update or alert when a wikipedia page is changed?  Is there such a service such as an RSS feed that will notify when edits are made to a particular page?

== WikiMedia Commons and Copyright ==

Hi

I'm new into the editing scene apart from odd bits and bobs anonymously over the years but I thought I'd get involved.
It's quite daunting though with all the vernacular and language.
However, the one thing I surely am confused about is the images within the Commons section.

I edited a page about the new Nokia Lumia 1020 and uploaded a picture from a website, the copyright section of which stated "you may copy the content to individual third parties for their personal use, but only if you acknowledge the website as the source of the material".

I did this but the photo was removed.
There are lots of images around Wikipedia that credit their sources - what's the story behind what you can use and the various licences that were being thrown at me when I uploaded?

Cheers chaps.
[[User:The Drof|The Drof]] ([[User talk:The Drof|talk]]) 13:50, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

:Greetings The Drof and welcome to the Teahouse. I'm a new editor also so I can't give you all the details on copyrighting. While I feel that I've picked up most Wikipedia policies and the markup language pretty quickly copyright is something I still feel is complex. My first rule of thumb is to just search in the commons: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page and as much as possible use images that are already there. There is a lot there already. My second rule of thumb is if I'm not absolutely sure that I have the legal right to use something assume that I don't. Regarding your specific case, that the image was pulled doesn't seem odd to me. If you look at what the license said it gives permission for "personal use" like uploading it to a blog. Wikipedia is not personal use. Also, one other distinction that confused me as a new user but that is important is between The Commons and uploading a file for a specific use. You can use the [[Wikipedia:File_Upload_Wizard]] to load an image for a specific use and there are a fairly intuitive set of forms it will walk you through to provide an appropriate justification if possible. If you get to a point where you can't answer any of the questions it means you probably shouldn't be using the file at all. The upload thing is different than the commons though. Uploading a file means there is some justification on a case by case basis that lets you use the image on one or more specific articles. Putting it in the commons means that Wikipedia has the right to reuse the image any way we want. Here are a couple more articles on copyright you might find useful: [[Wikipedia:Copyright_questions]], [[Wikipedia:Copyright_violations]] &   [[Wikipedia:Copyrights]], cheers. [[User:Mdebellis|Mdebellis]] ([[User talk:Mdebellis|talk]]) 14:40, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

::Thanks for that comprehensive info [[User:Mdbellis|Mdbellis]]. 

::Still about unsure about it though - how do other sites get away with publishing photos? Facebook for instance has millions, people just post them up. I could use the one that got taken down on there and have no redress from anyone. As this is a new device and the only photos that been taken are by either journalists for tech blogs or Nokia themselves, they are all someone else's. 

::Ok I searched the Commons and there has been an image uploaded since I first looked a few days ago so I'm cool to use that. [[User:The Drof|The Drof]] ([[User talk:The Drof|talk]]) 15:02, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

:::Facebook (and any other content sharing website) has a term somewhere in it's terms of service which states that by uploading an image there a) you are saying that you have permission to use it, and b) you give (and are capable of giving) Facebook permission to use it.  Wikipedia takes the more direct route of asking you for every image you upload, and pro-actively removing images when there is any doubt. [[User:MChesterMC|MChesterMC]] ([[User talk:MChesterMC|talk]]) 15:19, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
::::IMO one other thing that makes this complex is that in reality a lot of the use of images on the Internet is by the letter of the law illegal. The chances of someone going after each individual that improperly used one of their images on their personal page are negligible. But the risk to a big organization (especially one that stands for freedom of information -- something a lot of people don't like) is much greater. So Wikipedia needs to be a lot more rigorous about these kinds of issues than you or I are in our personal Internet use. [[User:Mdebellis|Mdebellis]] ([[User talk:Mdebellis|talk]]) 16:21, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

::::: I guess you're right. But basically everyone on Facebook is guilty of that breach in copyright at some point. I'd love that law to suddenly be enforced - the place would be decimated and all the better for it.

:::::Wikipedia is a more organized and respected site so the law has to be clearer and more rigorously adhered to. I respect that. Cheers. [[User:The Drof|The Drof]] ([[User talk:The Drof|talk]]) 11:07, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

== Curious about what questions I can ask here ==

I am wondering if I can ask any questions here or if I should seek answers other places too. Sometimes I feel like I am pestering people (not that they have said I am pestering) by asking too many questions on their talk pages, I just don't want to be a pest. I do want to do things correctly. I do seek help on the help pages and descriptions of such things however sometimes I don't really understand or its too much information or it doesn't quite fit the question I have. Anyhow, I sure do appreciate the teahouse being here.

:Hey Tattoodwaitress, thanks for asking.  I think anyone here would say that you are welcome to ask as many questions here as you want.  Keep in mind we may not have all the answers, and we may direct you to another venue that's more appropriate.  Here's a few other places for questions and when you might consider using them:
:*[[WP:Reference desk|The reference desk]] is for asking for clarification on general knowledge such as "When was [[Macy's]] founded?" or "What country has the highest income tax?"
:*[[WP:Help desk|The help desk]] is basically like The Teahouse here.  You can use it for how to do things on Wikipedia, like asking about how to make [[WP:Wikitable|tables using wiki markup]] or how to nominate an article for deletion.  It's been around for a while, and is watched by a lot of people.  It also has an extensive archive of questions you can search to see if your question has been asked already.
:*The e-mail address <code>info-en@wikimedia.org</code> is maintained by [[WP:OTRS|a large group of volunteers]], including myself, and you can ask questions here over e-mail if you'd prefer.  You can direct pretty much any question to the address, but keep in mind that responders generally don't get involved in content disputes or make substantial content changes to articles.  They will, however, guide you to the right places on Wikipedia to propose an idea or discuss a concern about an article.  It's also common for us to do minor changes to articles (like fixing broken templates) if you are unsure of how to do them yourself.
:*There is also a chatroom filled with editors who are generally there to help new users with questions.

== Can't find sources for an existing article that is supposed to be about a rock album ==

I also posted this at the Rock project discussion thread but haven't gotten any replies there. I was wondering if anyone had any input:  I've been working on various Rory Gallagher albums. I've done all the major ones and am starting to look at some posthumous releases, etc. One that I've found is this article: [[The_G-Man_Bootleg_Series_Vol.1]] The current article has no references. I couldn't find the album of that name on Allmusic, Amazon, or on Gallagher's official site rorygallagher.com I also have the one and only Gallagher biography on Kindle and I did a search for that name and found nothing. There is an album with a similar name that also has an article (and that I can find in all those places) but the song lists for the two albums are totally different. I googled it and I found a few sites that look like this: http://www.last.fm/music/Rory+Gallagher/G-Men+Bootleg+Series,+Volume+1 I think what this is is a site where people create their own playlists. I think either this is someone trying to advertize their personal playlist or it was an actual bootleg album. If its the former (I think more likely) I would say just delete the article. Any ideas? [[User:Mdebellis|Mdebellis]] ([[User talk:Mdebellis|talk]]) 12:17, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
:Hi [[User:Mdebellis|Mdebellis]] and welcome. It seems to have been a [http://www.amazon.co.uk/Men-Bootleg-Series-Rory-Gallagher/dp/B0000248F0 genuine box set release]. Does this help?
::Yes, this is why its good to have other people give feedback. I did find that Amazon page you linked to before but I dismissed it as something different because the art work was different and I couldn't find anything at all about the CD on that amazon page (e.g. to compare the track listings). But as I look at it more carefully, I think you are right, they probably are the same thing. I can't figure out why this box set though wouldn't be on Gallagher's official site at all or in Allmusic. I wonder if it actually was an actual bootleg? Not sure if those can get released on CD legally and be sold on Amazon. Anyway, still not sure what to do with this but that helps, thanks [[User:Mdebellis|Mdebellis]] ([[User talk:Mdebellis|talk]]) 13:02, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

== Using the new editor - HELP ==

Hey everyone, hope all is well!
I was recently editing an article, but used the "edit" button instead of the "edit source" button. I wanted to put an internal link, but when I saved it the code was written in the article. The problem is, when I try to fix it using the "edit source" button, the whole article loses its links and all the codes are written in. Can anyone help me fix this problem?

== citation style ==

Is it best to put citations at the end of sentences when there's heaps of them? This article I'm working on is getting hard to read because of all the mid-sentence citations. see: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Haminoon/sandbox#Other_activities] [[User:Haminoon|Haminoon]] ([[User talk:Haminoon|talk]]) 04:23, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
:Hi there, welcome to the Teahouse. Regarding the citations, consider if you have [[WP:CITEKILL|citation overkill]]. The easiest way to resolve this would be perhaps [[WP:BUNDLING|citation bundling]] where a large number of citations are moved to a single footnote. Technically there's nothing wrong with many inline citations but that's a good way of making it neater. <span style="font-family:Verdana;">[[User:Cabe6403|<span style="color:blue;">Cabe</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Cabe6403|<span style="color:green;">6403</span>]] <sup>([[user_talk:Cabe6403|Talk]]•[[User:Cabe6403/Guest book|Sign]])</sup></span> 10:41, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
Greetings Haminoon and welcome to the teahouse. This question actually came up on another question recently. I'm just going to paste part of a response to an earlier question:  In the section [[Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Inline_citations]] 
"As in the above example, citation markers are normally placed after adjacent punctuation such as periods and commas. For exceptions, see the Punctuation and footnotes section of the Manual of Style. Note also that no space is added before the citation marker.

The citation should be added close to the material it supports, offering text–source integrity. If a word or phrase is particularly contentious, an inline citation may be added next to that word or phrase within the sentence, but it is usually sufficient to add the citation to the end of the sentence or paragraph, so long as it's clear which source supports which part of the text. If an infobox or table contains text that needs citing, but the box or table cannot incorporate an inline citation, the citation should appear in a caption or other text that discusses the material." 

So to paraphrase, usually refs go at the end of a sentence after punctuation but in special circumstances they should go directly next to some text they support or that is contentious. Also, I've never seen an article where I thought "too many references" I'm not saying its impossible, I'm sure it is but my strong preference is when in doubt more references are always better. (Assuming of course they are accurate and relevant to the text they support) [[User:Mdebellis|Mdebellis]] ([[User talk:Mdebellis|talk]]) 11:01, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

== Why is the content box so wide ==

I have a few questions. Why is the content box so wide on this? [[Joe "Tiger" Patrick II]] It wasn't like that at first. Did i do something wrong with the category code, there is two for living people (i only put one though). When you go to edit source is all the coding correct at the bottom? Or should there be some things removed? It just doesn't look quite like what I am used to seeing when editing other articles and I am not real sure what to change or how to fix it. This is whats there " comment ( Just press the "Save page" button below without changing anything! Doing so will submit your article submission for review. Once you have saved this page you will find a new yellow 'Review waiting' box at the bottom of your submission page. If you have submitted your page previously, the old pink 'Submission declined' template or the old grey 'Draft' template will still appear at the top of your submission page, but you should ignore them.

:Sohambanerjee, welcome back.  Looking at the template {{tl|Infobox album}} which is the one in the section you linked to, I think the answer is currently no.  A look at the archives for this template and the collapse parameter was included at one time (about 6 years ago) but subsequently removed.  In the article you're talking about it doesn't go miles past the bottom of the text so persnally I don't think it's a big problem if it stays the way it is. [[User:Nthep|NtheP]] ([[User talk:Nthep|talk]]) 10:50, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

:Thanks [[User:Nthep|NtheP]] for the reply. The album has four singles each of them with their own respective album arts that I want to include (there are 2 more) but that would make it too long. Also the singles themselves were released yesterday so they don't have much of background information or popularity so I can't create them as articles. Also If I include four of them as it is then some obnoxious editor would come along the way and remove them citing too much non-fair images in the article about which I cannot do nothing.

::It wouldn't be obnoxious of that editor at all: there's no justification for adding four single cover images to an album article.

== Reliable sources problem and dissatisfaction with formulaic rejections ==

Hi!  I think I may have succeeded in establishing the notability of my subject after some difficulties with this, but am now being blocked over the issue of reliable sources. I've asked the most recent editors, Techatology and Arctic Kangaroo, to specify which references they consider inadequate. Techatology seems to have been suspended and Arctic Kangaroo has a note saying he's away until October 2nd.
Some early editors were clearly constructive and helped me greatly in improving my article. More recently I have the sense that there are rules of thumb being applied without full consideration being given to the issues involved in this particular case. I find myself wondering whether the editors read the article or simply check the references.
I make it clear at the start of the article that my subject was opposed to self-promotion and claims of authorship for reasons that were integral to his practice. This has meant that there is not all that much information about him. What he has left are a couple of books that have remained in print in English since the 1950s, and there were various references to him and accounts of his work in a  few journals. Interest in his ideas is kept alive on a few websites.
Such information as there is, and these references to him and his work, are detailed in my article. I can't see what the editors are asking for.
I am extremely critical of the custom whereby editors give a formulaic rejection without providing specific details.
Is there an appeal process built in to Wiki? Latterly I have not been impressed by the quality of editing.

:::I am a regular reviewer at the Afc project. In spite of what [[User:Keri|Keri]] says above, there are many of us who feel that it is important that Wikipedia be as "good" ''now'' as we can make it.  In response to the discussion above about lack of sources, Wikipedia has policies about which topics can be in the encyclopedia, and one of them is that the topic must have been written (or spoken if it's radio/television, etc.) about in a number of published sources with editorial control.  Saying that there aren't any doesn't mean that the article doesn't have to cite them, it means that the article shouldn't be in the encyclopedia.  Now, there are many thousands of editors who take part in creating Wikipedia, and they all have their own unique perspectives.  The above policy represents a "consensus", but of course not total agreement of everyone.  However, if an article is moved to the main encyclopedia too soon without demonstrating notability, sometimes it will be deleted rather than just declined as happens in Afc. &mdash;[[User:Anne Delong|Anne Delong]] ([[User talk:Anne Delong|talk]]) 14:30, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
::::On the contrary; this Afc was declined on the grounds that it was "unsourced or contains '''only unreliable''' sources" (my emphasis) - and yet it was sourced to multiple auhorities including peer-reviewed academic journals and works by internationally renowned experts in the field of pyschotherapy. This, I believe, is the crux of the original complaint above ("''I am extremely critical of the custom whereby editors give a formulaic rejection without providing specific details''.") It would appear that some reviewer(s) lack a basic understanding of what does and does not constitute a "reliable" source. As for whether the subject was "notable" or not, again see the multiple sources within their field; when authors of the stature of [[Aldous Huxley]] discuss and promote your works, you can begin to suspect that you are, indeed, "notable."

::::[[User:FGrahamR|FGrahamR]], I see that you had another question that wasn't answered.  You wanted to know if there was an appeal process at the Afc.  Each time an article is declined, the notice says that you can ask for help at the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk]].  There you can not only get a second or third opinion about your article, but you can see the advice that has been given to other new editors.  This is often better than asking the specific editor who declined the article because he or she may be sleeping or at work or even away for days.  If you have been unfairly reviewed by someone who is particularly critical, the reviewers at the help desk will recognize this and rectify the problem. Also, invitations to the Teahouse are sent out, and I see that you found your way here an got some help.  &mdash;[[User:Anne Delong|Anne Delong]] ([[User talk:Anne Delong|talk]]) 14:45, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

== WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE TO CREATE A BIOGRAPHY ON WIKIPEDIA? ==

I'm working on the biography of a Romanian art critic and essayist following closely one of Wikipedia's many models. 

Please advise on the way of working within a Wikipedia site, and all the steps toward having the material validated and for  the public  use.  

[[Special:Contributions/173.32.2.10|173.32.2.10]] ([[User talk:173.32.2.10|talk]]) 00:41, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
:Hello 173.32.2.10, and welcome!  There's a page titled [[Wikipedia:Your first article]] that has some pretty good tips on how you should prepare to write your first article.  There is an "optional" validation service you can find at [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation]] where experienced users will review your article before it is published.  However, once you create an account, there is no technical hurdle to creating an article at any time; but beware that articles may be deleted just as easily as they are created, and new users often make common mistakes (the three most common are probably 1) [[WP:COPYVIO|copying text from elsewhere]], 2) Writing about articles where there is no [[WP:RS|reliable source material]] about the subject of the article or 3) Writing an article whose [[WP:NPOV|tone is wholly inappropriate for an encyclopedia]].  However, if you can avoid those pitfalls, no one will stop you from just creating your article right away.  I'd not recommend it; but you're allowed to do it.  --[[User:Jayron32|<span style="color:#000099;">Jayron</span>]]'''''[[User talk:Jayron32|<span style="color:#009900;">32</span>]]''''' 00:51, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

== How to add footnote to bibliographical citation-- ==

In adding a title -- a collection edited by the publisher, not by the original author -- to a bibliography I have the publication data, but no indication of editor.  So I queried the publisher, Bloodaxe (a major UK publisher), and received response, which would be provideed as footnote in this way:

"Query to Bloodaxe Books, in the UK, re. publication data received response from Neil Astley with this about this volume:

"<i>Selected Poems</i> (1986) had no editor as such: the book was edited by Bloodaxe Books in consultation with Denise Levertov, with helpful suggestions made by Linda Anderson and Cynthia Fuller.  It was originated by Bloodaxe Books for publication in the UK and there was no corresponding US edition.  It had no introduction or preface."

How would I add that as a footnote to that title?

This is analogous to citing an unsigned newspaper article. Unsigned articles don't need a writer's name.

== Use of Cover art ==

Hi Teahouse hosts and everyone,

Now to my question - Recently I came across a few articles where album arts were used which exceeded the [[Wikipedia:Fair use/Definition of "low resolution"|300 pixels thumb rule of low resolution policy]] and were around 500 by 500 pixels in size, some were even bigger. Now that would be copyright infringement as far as I know since when usually someone buys music online (Amazon.com, itunes or even for that matter Flipkart's now defunct Flyte) they get an accompanying album art generally 500x500 or 600x600 pixels in size.

So if a pirate knows how to tag mp3 (which in most cases affirmative) he can use these images found in wikipedia along with the pirated music. That would lead to financial losses to the recording label or producer since most of the buyers of digital buy them for album arts. 

I immediately uploaded a resolution newer version of the files I saw infringing the rule so the files would not be available at-first sight. There is one problem though I cannot delete those files since I'm not an admin, what should I do '''NOW'''? Should I request an admin to it, if so then to any admin?

The files

:::The article is in main space now. There are many ways to create an article. Some of them are "wizards" and the Articles for Creation procedure, and such semi-automated procedures may place a template on an article. But if someone starts an article draft in user space, and no one else notices it, then no one else will template it. Here's where I make a confession: I have started over 60 articles, and I just moved every one to the main article space when I thought it was ready, and not a one of them has been deleted, though I had a couple of close calls in my early days of editing. I spent a couple of months studying policies and guidelines before opening my account and making my first edit. I suspect that few new editors were as well prepared as I was when I started. I tell this story just to illustrate that there is more than one way to create a new article, and that knowledgeable editors don't need to go through AfC.

== Getting a Pic in an Infobox ==

I *thought* this was going to be easy, as there is a photo icon in the toolbar.  The pic resides at Wikimedia Commons.  It is the arms of a royal person for whom there is no extant portrait, so it would be going into Infobox:royalty.  I clicked the photo icon & inserted the URL & centered it & added a caption.  I got a lovely box that had the caption under a red link, so I canceled the edit.  I looked at Help & it was not helpful.  I do not understand what it's on about at all.

== Help needed adding content ==

Awhile ago I tried to add a bio and other info for my husband, Jaime P. Gomez, who is listed as an actor on the TV series Nash Bridges.  The content was rejected based on copyright infringement as the bio was on another website.  That website was for a film festival my husband was attending and they posted the bio I gave them.  I provided that content, it's on IMDB as well.  How do I get around that to add my husband's bio, etc.?

:When you wrote material for another website, a copyright was created, and that copyrighted material can't be used here on Wikipedia unless the copyright holders (which may well include that website) freely license that content for use on Wikipedia, and also by anyone else.

== Qualifications and Controversial topics ==

So what does wikipedia do about authors who properly cite, but who's primary concern is to proselytize.  Controversial topics like, [[Eichman in Jerusalem]] and [[eugenics]] often have criticism and controversy sections bloated with irrelevant and redundant material.  Often this material would belong in a separate article in an actual encyclopedia.  What methods does Wikipedia use to fight (even better prevent) proselytization legitimized by citations? [[User:Aetherist|Aetherist]] ([[User talk:Aetherist|talk]]) 02:34, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
:One of our core policies is the [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]]. Briefly stated, this means that a well written Wikipedia article summarizes what the range of [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] say about a topic. You are correct that some editors are quite skillful at pushing their own points of view at the expense of others. The solution is for editors who make improving the encyclopedia their top priority to work on improving problematic articles, and for the community to work to change the behavior of problematic editors, or if that doesn't succeed, to prevent them from disruptive editing by topic bans or blocks if necessary. We have a wide variety of administrative noticeboards, where such matters are discussed and debated, sometimes in mind-numbing detail.

If anyone stops to read the full book review, "Human Nature Abhors a Vacuum", they will discover that the statement "[it] in fact gives the book a thumbs-up" is an [[equivocation]] of "thumbs-up".  Here "thumbs-up" has two definitions: Waller illustrates his thesis, Waller proves his thesis.  According to the book review, Waller does in fact illustrate his thesis but this definition is equivocated with the definition of proving.  The book review does not claim that Waller proves anything.  PoeticBent, I would appreciate it if you stopped the [[ad hominem]] attacks on me and attacked my argument instead of calling me names.
