Please don’t bite me, I’m a newbie!

I’m a university student in a Wikipedia Education class, and I’m currently learning how to contribute to Wikipedia.
I am approaching my subject in good faith.

If you have any concerns or questions, my tutor’s name is psmwm (talk · contribs). Thanks!

Answers to Module 7 Questions

I need some guidance about whether or not I can upload my chosen media, and under which license. I found a photograph of Joseph Perry in a book. The photograph in question must be at least 120 years old. Am I allowed to upload my scan of this photograph? How would I go about finding out who owns the copyright? Ultimately, I don't think imagery is necessary for my particular wiki article, so if I can't upload the image - I don't believe it will negatively impact my article.
