Images
[edit]Hi, and welcome! It's great that you are interested in contributing to Wikipedia. In fact, I suggest that you take a look at WikiProject Judaism, which is a group of Wikipedians who have joined together to standardize and perfect articles related to Judaism and halakha. There are a couple of problems with your pictures, though.
First, unless you are Rabbi Yaacov Haber or you have explicit, verifiable permission from him, you can't upload an image (especially one that he sells on his website...) that belongs to him, because of copyright laws. Secondly, those images were not really relevant for most of the places where you tried to add them (e.g. Rav Soloveitchik, Rav Kook, the Chafetz Chaim, etc.). Plus, even where they could possibly be beneficial in the article (probably only in Vilna Gaon and in Tomer Devorah) you can't see any of the details because the images are so compressed - so it's pointless to have them there at all, irrespective of copyright issues.
I hope that you will continue to contribute - don't be discouraged by a minor setback like this. Good luck and kol tuv, DLandTALK 16:29, 22 November 2006 (UTC).
