Nomination of Joan Gramatte for deletion[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Joan Gramatte is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joan Gramatte until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. DGG ( talk ) 03:12, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Photo credit[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your contribution of photographs to Wikipedia. I have been removing the credits you have added because as I understand, WP:CREDITS states that it is Wikipedia policy that "Unless relevant to the subject, do not credit the image author or copyright holder in the article." However, reviewing that now leads to a "Credits for MediaWiki" page with "We would like to recognize the following persons for their contribution to MediaWiki." I will look into this further. Thanks for your patience. -Lopifalko (talk) 08:11, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The link 'WP:CREDITS' may not be working as I understand it should, however Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Captions#Credits says: "Unless relevant to the subject, do not credit the image author or copyright holder in the article. It is assumed that this is not necessary to fulfill attribution requirements of the GFDL or Creative Commons licenses as long as the appropriate credit is on the image description page. If the artist or photographer is independently notable, though, then a wikilink to the artist's biography may be appropriate, but image credits in the infobox image are discouraged, even if the artist is notable, since the infobox should only contain key facts of the article's subject, per MOS:INFOBOX.". -Lopifalko (talk) 08:17, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You say "You are not allowing my photo credit "Photo by Joan Gramatte" in the caption so you are using my copyrighted photo without my permission now." Please be aware that your photographs are tagged with "licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license." so they can be used by anyone, anywhere, at any time and your permission is not required.
