User talk:Sunnyprime

Welcome!

Hello, Sunnyprime, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

There, that's the boilerplate welcome message. As for uploading images and so forth - I'll see about getting someone else to help you (I'm a bit busy just now).

Good job, by the way. DS (talk) 01:33, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Some details

All right, let's see.

First: when this article goes into mainspace, you are not supposed to put your name or e-mail address on it. Talk pages are signed, articles are unsigned (because they can be created by dozens or hundreds of people).

Second: just because you own the physical photographs, that doesn't mean you own the copyright to them. Copyright to an image typically belongs either to the person who made the image, or to the corporate entity that hired the person. Since Showmen's went under, and was bought by Exhibitors, which also went under... I'm not sure, really. It's probably okay, but I'll have to make sure before I give you the okay.

Also, trim the Lewis-centric material more; this is an article about the STR, not about the STR's founder. DS (talk) 02:00, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Info on images

Hi User:Sunnyprime, I responded at User talk:DragonflySixtyseven#Need_Help_Including_Images regarding your image uploads. If you need more help with images, please contact me at User talk:Dcoetzee. Thanks! Dcoetzee 18:36, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Some more comments

Upload the images in the best resolution you can supply, and the system will supply thumbnails automatically, yes.

I think it might be better to have two articles - one on your father, and one on the magazine he founded. It's easier to keep track that way. DS (talk) 01:00, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Deletions, and why you personally don't have to worry

I delete a lot of inappropriate material: I spend a lot of time scouring the back corners of Wikipedia, and as such I find things that people have hidden away. Sometimes, people get upset that I have deleted their promotional campaign for their vanity-published novel, or their carefully-laid-out table of fictional results for an imaginary season of a reality show, etc etc etc.

However, I also found and assessed your content, and it is good and legitimate and appropriate. After all, If I didn't think your material was worth it, would I be encouraging you, holding your hand, and walking you through the procedures?

The content isn't finished yet, but you don't have to worry that either the article on your father or his magazine will be deleted (assuming you get them properly ready before moving them into mainspace). DS (talk) 21:53, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

images

Okay, I've been told that this is a useful site for you to read.

If you are willing to provide a statement that you are the sole rights-holder for the photos and to describe their origins, then you can upload them to Commons under a free license.

By 'statement', I mean "I am the daughter of Chick Lewis, and the sole heir to the rights to these photographs, and I publish them under a free license".

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. I may not have the opportunity to answer them myself, but I'll definitely get them answered promptly. DS (talk) 22:14, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Showmen's Trade Review and Chick Lewis articles

Many thanks for your clarifications. I am willing to provide such a statement as you give here. I will now resume work on these articles and I appreciate all your hand-holding. Thank you. Sunnyprime (talk) 23:44, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Userpages

You'll note that your userpage no longer exists. This is because I moved it to Showmen's Trade Review. You can start working on a new article where the old one used to be. DS (talk) 00:08, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation

Your upload of File:Chickportrait1948.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

File permission problem with File:Chick Lewis, 1948.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Chick Lewis, 1948.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

ATTENTION: This is an automated, bot-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 03:00, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
