[edit] Charles Darwin
The article you created yesterday was deleted, first because of the extraneous "/" in the title, and second because it contained material already in the Charles Darwin article. It is very likely that such a prominent figure will already have an entry in Wikipedia, so it's a good idea to check. Of course, if you have information that you think is important you should add it.
The picture Image:Darwin.gif would, I think, be a useful addition to the article because it's such a famous photo, but the problem is that you have not indicated its status with respect to copyright. Images are a problem for Wikipedia because of the difficulty of complying with intellectual property law, and you must indicate in the image page whether the picture is public domain or otherwise used with permission. I believe a sufficiently old photograph is PD, but I'm no expert on that. See Wikipedia:Image use policy.
I hope I'm not being discouraging. Everyone is welcome to add their own insights to Wikipedia! David Brooks 19:51, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
