And a big hello to you, too. Welcome to wikipedia.
- Kind of have an inquisitive mindset, lets see how I can make use of my experience and knowledge here.
Well sadly, adding a copyright photo to wikipedia is not a good start. Pdfpdf (talk) 12:27, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
Response to your question on my talk page
[edit]The image is from a website link and i had selected it as a free source. Can you please explain why you deleted the image. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tunnellight (talk • contribs) 09:27, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
- Hi
- You'd be entitled to think that you have asked a simple question. Unfortunately, your question isn't simple for a variety of, and a number of, reasons. In the following I will attempt to explain. If I'm unsuccessful, please ask for clarification. I'm more than happy to try to help you, and I apologise in advance if my efforts are inadequate.
- First I'll warn you that wikipedia is a community that, like all communities, has its rules and regulations. Wikipedia calls these "policies".
- Next we'll move on to: "The image is from a website link and i had selected it as a free source." Why did you categorise it as "a free source"? It isn't. The image is copyright - either to the place you sourced it, or to the person from whom they sourced it, (and they then got permission to use it). The image is copyright, not free, and you have NOT got permission from the copyright holder to upload it to wikipedia.
- Third, you say "Can you please explain why you deleted the image." I didn't delete it. Only wikipedia administrators can delete things. I am not a wikipedia administrator. To be less pedantic, I nominated that it be deleted because it is a copyright image and the uploader did NOT get the permission of the copyright holder to upload it.
- I expect this response only answers half of your questions. As I've said, I'm more than happy to try to help you, so please feel free to ask more questions. Pdfpdf (talk) 11:01, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
