Welcome[edit]
Hi 11lawpt1,
welcome to Wikipedia.
I am here to assist you with answers to your questions, and to try to make the Wikipedia work of the course go smoothly.
All the best with your writing! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 05:46, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
Hello 11lawpt1.
I see that the file called "File:Himalaya lithostratigraphic tectonic zones Wiki Canvas.jpg" on commons was deleted. Even if an author gave permission for you to use the image, Wikipedia has a different requirement. We require a license that lets anyone use the image, and also to make changes. Suitable licenses include CC-BY-SA-4.0. So you could ask the author to grant such a license. But there's more, this consent has to be proved. We don't just rely on you saying you got permission. Instead the permission has to be sent to a trusted person to confirm. WP:PERMIT gives the procedure. This says that it can be emailed to [email protected] by the author along with the consent to the license. Often this is too much trouble for people, so I hope they are willing to give the suitable license. It can be simpler for you to draw the map again. PS you are not the only one in your class that is going to lose a picture that was just lifted out of a journal article. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:58, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
You are correct, though it may take a while for someone to read and confirm the permission. It may be too late for you! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:10, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

DYK for Pre-collisional Himalaya[edit]
On 16 February 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Pre-collisional Himalaya, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that scientists have proposed four models to describe the arrangement of the layers of rock before the collision of India with Asia that formed the Himalayas? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Pre-collisional Himalaya. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Pre-collisional Himalaya), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
