Hello Marchjuly
Here are your comments that I will respond to below:
"Hi CableHut. After seeing your latest post on Cullen328's user talk page I am wondering if you have (or had) had some kind of personal or professional connection to Jepson or her family. The way you refer to her in such a familiar tone in your talk page posts and throughout the draft you are writing gives me the impression that you were one of her friends or associates. If that's the case then I think it might be a really good idea for you to take a look at Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide for reference."
I have read the Wikipedia COI guidelines and I am fully confident that there is no conflict whatsoever. I am undertaking this project on my own initiative and am not being paid for doing this. There are no commercial possibilities in this work at all and I am not trying to promote or market anything.
I did know Jean Jepson. I was a dance student of hers very late in her life just a few years before she died. That is the full extent of my contact with her.
Jean played a very important role in Vancouver's dance history. Among other things she was a veteran performer on Broadway in NYC in the heyday of the big musical spectacles and in the world of the famous Big Band Orchestras. When she returned to Vancouver to teach she passed on to the next generations of students much of her experiences in New York. Up until she died she was one of the last generation of Vancouver performers who had lived and worked in New York at that time.
Sadly a lot of her history has been lost and in an effort to honour her career a tribute event was held for her and two other notable dance teachers last year. I worked on a project team that collected as much information as possible on Jean's career. After the tribute event was over we decided to donate all the historical memories of Jean to the archives of the Vancouver Ballet Society.
Our plan is to simply give her a page on Wikipedia from where interested readers would learn about the archived material at the Vancouver Ballet Society.
That is it. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask.

Thank you for your message on my talk page, but I'm terribly confused about the Wikipedia rules for photos, copyrighted or otherwise. The photo that Hullabaloo Wolfowitz took down and made an orphan was a photo that the subject of the Wikipedia page, Calvin C.J. Sia, asked his daughter-in-law to take. He gave Wikipedia permission to use the photo. It is not under a copyright. It has appeared in publications of the American Academy of Pediatrics and Hawaii Academy of Pediatrics but those publications were given the photo by Sia and they do not have rights of ownership of the photo.
Your message to me said this: "Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item ... by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject)."
I posted the photo with the understanding that Sia "created" the media by having his daughter-in-law take a picture of him. His daughter-in-law is identified in the photo credit. Perhaps I made a mistake in the way I described the photo? I thought fair use was correct, but I would welcome you help in labeling this photo, which Sia had taken of himself for the Wikipedia page.
I tried my best to read the Media Copyright Questions Page and other rules, but I'm confused and baffled over why Sia's own photo cannot be used. If this explanation helps you to decide that I merely need the correct language and coding to post this photo, will you please help me? I don't know how to fix this problem. Thank you for your help!

The image of Warp 9's 12" that you deleted has been licensed by Wikipedia under fair use/ album cover since 2012. How is your deletion improving the Wikipedia page Old School Hip Hop for readers? The image is included for educational purposes in order to provide information about styles of Old School Hip Hop to readers and interested parties. Tell me what you need me to do in order to restore this legally used image, and I will do it. What purpose does it serve to unilaterally delete an image that has been approved under Wikipedia rules?

Hi March - I note your tags requiring permission from authors of the various photos, in all cases. Today the agent / copyright holder submitted his permission, via the interactive release generator. Now knowing, as you do, the tremendous effort I have gone to so as to make this page as near perfect as the subject deserves, can you please tell me if there is even a whisker more you require before I can finally say you have no more objections to make.

Template:OTRS pending. There seems to be a slight difference in the respective documentation pages about each template, so I linked to the Commons page instead in my previous post. For future reference, when you add a template to a file page, all you need to do is add the template's name between double brackets like {{OTRS pending}}

What you did still seems to have worked, so I didn't think there was a need to tweak your edit.The image of the front jacket of the book Thomas Jeckyll: Architect and Designer, 1827–1881 was inserted to show a typical example of James Austin's book work. I have now made contact with the photographer, who I believe holds the copyright to ascertain if he would be happy for the image to be made available on WikiCommons. On the assumption that he would be and on receipt of the appropriate email from the photographer, may I assume that the image can be retained on the page?

Hi March, I'm afraid I do not understand the Conflict of Interest - I am in no way related to Prof Y S Rajan, either personally or professionally. I have gone through his website, and observed that there is far more information there, than there is on his Wiki page. Considering the fact that he is an eminent personality, who has co-authored a best-seller with Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, and has also been awarded the Padma Shri, I thought it best to ask him about why more was not written on his Wiki page. It was then that he requested whether I could do anything about it.
Please let me know how you would want me to proceed, without encountering any conflicts and while at the same time, maintaining the dignity of the person involved.
Thanks!

Marchjuly, I have a question about licensing. Should this file be deleted? I didn't think images of a person could be on Wikipedia (they have to be in the Public Domain with permission granted unless it's too old for copyright or uploader is owner). I ask this because I've had a few files of a person (living and non-living) deleted from Wikipedia for this very reason. I know living people can't be uploaded on here, but I'm not sure about dead people. Wouldn't the University of Notre Dame need to send permission for this file's use? Thanks, Corkythe hornetfan (ping me) 01:21, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
