Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Matthewjalovick!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

What is the basis for the license you are claiming? Your linked source is just the image itself, so it doesn't say anything about a license. If the source does indicate this license, then you need to link the page with the image and an indication of license, not just the image itself. - Jmabel ! talk 05:08, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

• https://news.nd.edu/ in general gives no indication of a free license. It says " Copyright © 2017 University of Notre Dame ". - Jmabel ! talk 05:10, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

Jmabel: My mistake. In my desire to contribute to the community, I inadvertently misunderstood the licensing procedures for the two photos I uploaded (George Marsden and Mark Noll) and as such would like to request them to be deleted. Being a novice, I'm unsure of the best way to go about this process. Thanks for your understanding. --Matthewjalovick (talk) 05:40, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
