Good Morning/Evening Rae,

I've been busy with life and university so haven't had much time devoted to Wikipedia. How would one go about making a user page? Is it essentially a sandbox or is it more of a professional profile?

ps. Happy New Year! --GravyOnToast (talk) 06:15, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @GravyOnToast! Click on your username here (a red link), and it'll open the editor for your userpage. It's not a place for a profile/resume, just a place where you can let other editors know a bit about you. For info on what people generally include, I'd recommend reviewing WP:UPYES. And happy new year! Best, Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 17:33, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Rae, I hope you can help me. I added a photo but it sort of repeated itself on my edit. How do I remove the extra double photos please? The page is: Little Portugal in Montreal I added a before and after restoration photos of the fountain but I see several double photos on the right hand column. I actually wanted to put two side by side photos of before and after restoration. Let me know what to do or can you correct this for me? Thanks --Zinebre (talk) 17:50, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Zinebre! It doesn't look to me like there are any duplicate images in the gallery, i.e., images that appear more than once. Is that what you are referring to, or is it another issue? Best, Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 23:27, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe someone else removed them. I do not see them anymore either. Zinebre (talk) 23:41, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! How do I add images when I'm editing? --Steven WaIIing (talk) 03:04, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Rae,

I'm having issues because I received permission from the owner of an image which is called "Nina Chanel Abney Portrait Photo" and I did all I was supposed to do on Wiki Commons and also sent an email to the permissions attaching the correspondence from the owner stating it was granted and still I had a user say it would be deleted as well as a permissions staff from Wikipedia state I need to attach the photo even though the photo was attached in the initial email. It seems that not many people are doing due diligence but are quick to say a photo should be deleted even though I received professional permission from the owner. --Taureanverse (talk) 11:10, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
