| Thank you for all the great work you are doing fixing content for #WikiForHumanRights on English Wikipedia! Keep up the great work and let us know if you need any help! Astinson (WMF) (talk) 19:54, 16 December 2019 (UTC) |
Thank you Astinson for this message of encouragement. Please, I want you to tell me about "Edit Summary". Do I need to include #wikiforhumanrights in my edit summary or only the summary of what I edited? Thanks. Sowoletoyin (talk) 06:11, 20 December 2019 (UTC)

editPlease be more careful when adding references. This edit to Torture, while generally helpful, seemed disruptive at first glance due to an incorrect title having been inserted therein. I have gone ahead and fixed it for you. Thank you for your participation and happy continued editing. StonyBrook (talk) 01:17, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos Contest in Nigeria

How would it be if Wikipedia article had no images?
How would it be if you could add images to Wikipedia using available tools?
How would it be if you could win prizes for that?
Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos Contest in Nigeria is an annual campaign where Wikipedians in Nigeria add photos to articles lacking images. This is to promote the use of digital media files collected from various WP photography contests, organized by the Wikimedia community, on Wikipedia article pages. Photos improve readers' experience, illustrate content, and make articles engaging. The campaign would also help sharpen the skills of new and existing editors.

editSLOW DOWN. You are making a ton of errors by including images of people that are not the same as those in articles. See Bridget Hall for example. The photo you added is very clearly not the same person. *pickledicaeđ„ 21:19, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
- You only appear to participate during these contests without care for who has to clean up behind you. I have reverted many of your contributions as you're adding obvious copyvio images to articles. This is your last warning: slow down and take more care to verify the photos are 1.) of the person in question 2.) not BLP violations and 3.) not obvious copyright violations or dubiously licensed. PICKLEDICAEđ„ 21:58, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
- I am very sorry for all these mistakes but I always careful by checking the Wikipedia article to compare it with the image on Wikimedia commons file before adding the image. I will be very careful next time I want to add any image. Thank you very much for calling my attention to all these mistakes. Sowoletoyin (talk) 06:30, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- Not careful enough, you've made a number of mistakes that are still being cleaned up. Editing solely for contests is disruptive. PICKLEDICAEđ„ 13:44, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Pickledicae, please am I still making mistakes? If yes please let me know so that I can stop this editing. Sowoletoyin (talk) 21:13, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
