Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Alonzo Levister

Thanks for the image upload. Can I please draw your attention to COM:OTRS. It might be useful to get some statement from Gloria Bleezarde herself here, clarifying that she releases the photo under that licence. Commons is getting very picky these days. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:42, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for you help. I can get the statement, and will get in touch with her. I uploaded another picture of Alonzo, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Alonzo_Levister_in_1960.jpg, which i scanned from a print from Alonzo himself. He was the one that gave me the details of location and authorship. Is there anything else needed to publish it on Alonzo's wikipedia entry? José Monteiro (talk) 13:56, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi José, I've created a category for images and have linked it from the article. If you want to add images to the article yourself, then follow the syntax at en:WP:IMAGES or (probably more simply) look at the article history and just copy my own edit where I added the first one. It would be nice to find one of him playing. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:28, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
