Hi there,

I would like to contribute a photo of mine to the wiki page that I see on the internet about me. Im an artiste and there is a page on me - Lady Kash. How can I add the photo? Thank you (OWN17 (talk) 16:54, 9 February 2014 (UTC));

The easiest thing would be to put the image on your official website, on a page for just such images, along with a notice that the image is licensed under GFDL and CC-BY-SA 3.0 licenses. Then leave a message here, on your talk page, with a link to the image. An experienced editor like myself will then verify that the image is free, upload it to Wikimedia Commons, and add it to the article.

All that assumes, of course, that the image adds to the article, or it's a more recent version of an older image that needs updated. —C.Fred (talk) 18:21, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi C.Fred, thank you. I have done just so. Please refer to this link: http://www.ladykashonline.com/lady-kash-official/ and kindly do help me expedite it for a more wholesome article. Thank you again.(OWN17 (talk) 18:31, 9 February 2014 (UTC))

Hi, the {{help me}} is for general help requests. If you are trying to contact User:C.Fred, you can do so at his talk page. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:57, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Actually, if you're trying to reach me, just use the {{subst:Mention|C.Fred}} template here, and I'll be alerted to the comment. If you're replying to a comment of mine, then I prefer that method of contact. —C.Fred (talk) 21:05, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

And FYI, File:Lady-Kash-300x300.jpg has been uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. Please make sure the page stays up at the website so that administrators there can verify the license. —C.Fred (talk) 21:19, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Be careful if you have a connection to the subject

Hello, OWN17. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Lady Kash, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

• Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
• Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
• Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
• Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

This message is a result of the images you've uploaded and held out as your own work. They're professional enough images that they suggest you were at a photo shoot. —C.Fred (talk) 21:42, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
