Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Wazzup, since you know very well what an article needs, is it close to meet the FA needs? In your GA review you said that the prose could be improved. Can you check the article and tell me if something is missing? Thanks again.--Gduwen (talk) 03:07, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
- Sure, I can handle to be responsive to the feedback. In addition I have also the help of Gunt50 that contributed to the article for the GA, so I think we can take care of those specific issues quick. Thanks for the quick reply.--Gduwen (talk) 03:35, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
Harvard
The Crimson have locked up at least a share of the regular season title. However, they are not Ivy League Champion, as Princeton can still beat Penn and then take out Harvard in the one game playoff. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 01:37, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, Harvard is at least co-champions of the league, but that does not mean they are the singular champion. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 01:53, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not going to waste my time. The whole banner is poorly worded, but we can wait one game to settle all of this. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 02:18, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
Welcome to the Wikipedia Ambassador Program
Hi Tony!
Congratulations! Your application to join the Wikipedia Ambassador Program as an Online Ambassador has been accepted.
First off, two apologies. I'm sorry it took so long to accept your application; I've been traveling and have been almost totally off-wiki for about two weeks. And I apologize for the following info-dump. If this feels overwhelming and you're wondering how to get started or are wondering what's going on, please contact me.
If you haven't already done so, take a look at the Online Ambassador guidelines: Wikipedia:Online_Ambassadors/Guidelines
The "mentorship process" section lays out approximately what will be expected of you as a mentor. If you'd like, you can also volunteer to be the coordinating online ambassador for a class or two.
Please add yourself to the top of the list of available mentors, and note the number of students you think you'd like to mentor next term (it doesn't have to be a final answer, this is just to help with matching students and mentors once the students start getting active) and if you'd like to take on the coordination role for any classes note that as well: Wikipedia:Online_Ambassadors/Mentors (Don't add yourself to the lower "Additional online ambassadors section; that's for ambassadors-in-training and ambassadors who are already mentoring all the the students they want to take on.)
To coordinate between Online Ambassadors and Campus Ambassadors, we've been using a Google Group as a mailing list. It's not required, but almost all the ambassadors are on it. Would you like me to subscribe you? Email me with your email address if so.
You can catch with what's been going on so far with the first major message this term, with details about what the group should and shouldn't be used for: Wikipedia_talk:Ambassadors#Information_for_Ambassadors_about_January_-_May_2011_term
You can also check out the first two ambassador newsletters, which have more detail about what's going on right now. You'll get future editions delivered to your talk page.
If you use IRC, please consider adding #wikipedia-en-ambassadors and #wikipedia-en-classroom to your channel lineup.
Finally, please help us find more mentors! Because the number of students, and their involvement with mentors, is increasing so much for this term, we're going to need a lot of solid Online Ambassadors. Please take a few minutes to think of several other editors you know who would make good mentors, and invite them to apply the the Wikipedia Ambassador Program. The key things we look for are: regular activity (so that we can be confident they'll keep up with their mentoring role for the whole term), friendliness, and the ability to give detailed, substantive feedback on articles (both short new articles, and longer, more mature ones). You can point them to Wikipedia:Online Ambassadors for information on how to apply and what to expect.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

New User
Hello TonyTheTiger,
I am fairly new to Wikipedia and I was just wondering if you could help me out with some tips on how to edit and expand articles properly and become a more frequent user of Wikipedia. I am currently taking a class at UC Berkeley titled, "The Politics of Piracy," so I thought a good place to start would be to edit the page on Cary Sherman, President of the RIAA, and Mitch Bainwol, CEO and Chairman of the RIAA. Is there anything I should be cautious of when exposing more information on these powerful key figures? By that I mean, if I post something that could be potentially harmful to their reputation but is backed by fact and credible sources, is there any way I can get in trouble? Other than that, is there any general advice you can give me on how to be a more effective user and properly contribute to Wikipedia?
Here are the articles I am planning on editing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cary_Sherman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_Bainwol
Here is a link to my discussion page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Gunheim
Please write back to me when you can. Thank you.

John Beilein
Why did you remove my additions to the article? If you didn't like that they were unsourced, that's fine, but you didn't have to delete them - you could have just added a "citation needed" tag. I can find a preseason page in which Michigan is predicted to finish at or near the bottom of the Big Ten if I have a little more time. Also, the point about Beilein primarily using man-to-man should be in there. I've watched every Michigan game this year and can tell you that he very rarely uses the 1-3-1; his reputation for using that defense is seriously overblown. 98.209.116.7 (talk) 05:00, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
DYK
You stated last night that you are reviewing the two Air Union Farman Goliath crash articles. Are you still reviewing these, or did you forget? Mjroots (talk) 06:25, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- I've withdrawn the May accident from the nom, as I won't be able to expand it further. A reference has been added for the aircraft in the August accident being written off. Mjroots (talk) 07:46, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
