Hello, hope you are well, I do need your help in something please... I uploaded images of bands from the internet to the Wikipedia pages of these bands. I do not have a permission evidence from the authors of these images and I am told that If I do not provide permission evidence from the authors in the next 4 days, then they will delete the images I put up and I do not know who the authors of these images are and I'm stuck on what to do. --Doomed Shadow (talk) 04:13, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello Doomed Shadow, and welcome to Wikipedia! If you do not give permission from the authors of these images, you probably shouldn't be uploading them, so I can't really help you. 141Pr -\contribs/- 14:16, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from DelphisNovels (13:04, 26 June 2024)

Hi there, I would like to add my book By the Horn of the South to a possible Media section in the Wikipedia entry Hanno the Navigator. The book is a fictionalised account of the journey that Hanno supposedly took. It has received many 5* reviews on Amazon etc. As far as I am aware it is the only fictionalised account of this journey in any medium, visual, audio or written. Surely it is worth a mention? Is it possible though? Many thanks in advance for your help. DelphisNovels --DelphisNovels (talk) 13:04, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, Praseodymium-141. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Dangerous Silence".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 18:18, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

I don't think this is supposed to be directed to me. 141Pr -\contribs/- 19:38, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Elements at B

I know that you were working on a few elements trying to get them to GA-level recently. I have similar goals but don't want to take over anything you were working on. Noted overlap was on Cerium. Anywhere else you want to reserve for your own projects, just let me know. I've got a lot of resources lined up for the Rare Earths and can probably improve the sourcing on neodymium since that was its main problem last time - many rare earths have issues in regards to health and safety to with relation to new literature. Reconrabbit 13:58, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

I haven't worked on those elements in the past few weeks, so you can probably take over all of them. I might want to work on other elements in a few months, but probably not cerium or neodymium in the near future. Good luck on potential GANs! 141Pr -\contribs/- 14:54, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
