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?

I don't understand what the issue is. I have dozens of images that can be used for dental lab and dental tech uses. What exactly is the problem? UticaDentalLab (talk) 19:44, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

In addition, your promotional user name is inappropriate as here are no company accounts but user accounts. I changed the block into a "soft" one, so you can either create a new account or request a renaming of your account. --Achim55 (talk) 19:57, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

What should I name my account and how should I attribute photos?

I am marketing director for Utica Dental Lab and took all photos using company equipment at the facility. These are images of items we manufacture. Proper attribution should be for "Utica Dental Lab" correct? Should I not explain what we do in any detail at all? I'd be happy to remove that information but wouldn't you want to know some of the credentials of the photos you use?

Please advise how to properly attribute photos.

Also, please define "spam". I don't understand how a profile page from a legitimate business with expertise in the field, where people willfully click to learn more can be spam. UticaDentalLab (talk) 20:07, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
