Thank you for the rapid response. I will attend to this asap. most likely tomorrow. Lowryedale (talk) 16:02, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
- Hello! I made some edits to the Ellerby page, as I am interested in seeing it published. He is notable by our standards, as his work is contained in numerous museum collections; I have added those. The issue that prevents the article's publication currently is that the references are too vague. Something like "Death certificate for Emily Waring Ellerby" does not say where the death certificate is held. The idea is to give the chance for someone else to verify, should they so desire. So the more precise the location of the source the better. Thanks. --- Possibly ☎ 19:26, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Lowryedale, and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.
Did you know that ...
- ...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
- ...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
- ...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
- ...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
- ...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process – at least until you get the hang of things?
