Image copyright problem with Image:Front of Greenhouse.JPG
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Front of Greenhouse.JPG. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}
.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Flying Canuck 01:43, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia!
If you would like an article that you have written in its entirety to be deleted, you may add {{db-author}} to the top of the article. But don't feel like just because someone proposed an article you wrote for deletion that it's not worth saving. Maybe it isn't, but maybe it is, you know?
You might check out WP:YFA for how to avoid common mistakes in writing new articles.
Also, I think you ought to have the standard welcome message, with its helpful links and stuff, so I'm pasting it here:
