[edit] License tagging for Image:Rembrandt.by.himself.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Rembrandt.by.himself.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:11, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Welcome
Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
- Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such unreasonable information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, and will result in your account being blocked.
The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!-Andrew c 21:28, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] 3RR
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing in Jesus. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.-Andrew c 21:28, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- All you've done is revert, seemingly for other users. This account is blocked as a suspected sockpuppet. --Deskana (ya rly) 15:01, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

- The contributions prove that to be false. I have reverted because I see several people unreasonably ganging up on one editor. --Triffid3 15:12, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

- There was no ganging up involved. Wikipedia works by consensus. If there is controversy over an edit, you take it to talk, and work out a compromise with other editors. You don't create sockpuppets to force your edits in. You simply cannot force edits in wikipedia, and unfortunately, you had to learn the hard way. When your 1 week ban is up, I suggest that the next time you get in a content dispute with editors, that you go to talk and build consensus before editing the article again. Edit warring gets you no where (except blocked). The article survived without the controversial edits for years before you came along, so it can survive without for another few weeks while talk page discussion goes on. Again, we work by consensus here. If you don't have support for your edits, then don't think there is any way to slip your edits in without compromising, building consensus, and talking it out on talk pages. I hope this helps, and good luck.-Andrew c 22:26, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
