Welcome!

Hello, Chrisptx, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
Happy editing!

Image copyright?[edit]

Hello! I notice that you haven't added a copyright tag to Image:earthcenteredmodel.jpg. Could you do that, please? As you'll appreciate, Wikipedia can't use material that is copyright. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 16:06, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Seven heavenly objects[edit]

Sorry not to have replied to your e-mail — i saw it at about the same time I saw the changes to the page. The problem with the new material is in part what I'm worried about throughout the article: it seems to be pitched at primary-school children. I've tried to tighten it a little, and to remove material duplicated in other articles (on the heavenly bodies). Also, the initial summary needs to be tweaked, as it's not the standard definition. Perhaps we can discuss all this on the article's Talk page? Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 17:18, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)


Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Earthcenteredmodel.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
