Greetings, can I help you?

I am glad you are working with the Wikipedia! Your photography has brightened up more than one article! I put a Welcome template here on the page so you can look around a bit. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me on my talk page. Cheers! --Leahtwosaints (talk) 21:33, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Brian, Leahtwosaints is having some health issues which make it difficult for her to be active here. I am an editor both here and on Commons and if I can be of assistance, please feel free to let me know on my talk page here (or on Commons, I will cross-post this there next). Thanks for sharing your great photos! Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 11:22, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Joe Williams (jazz singer)

A page you previously contributed to, Joe Williams (jazz singer), had many prior revisions deleted due to copyright issues. For details please see Talk:Joe Williams (jazz singer). Your prior version may be temporarily restored upon request if you need it for reference to re-incorporate constructive edits that do not make use of the copyright infringing material. Please feel free to leave me a talk message if you need this done. Happy editing, — xaosflux ^Talk 22:29, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In article photo credits

Generally, they're not allowed. See Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Captions#Credits. That being said, It's possible that your work rises to the level of making an exception. I have no idea. Anyway, I started a discussion about it here. - Richfife (talk) 16:07, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Brianmcmillen, your photos are a great asset, but Wikipedia contributors aren't credited within articles, beyond the attribution in article histories and image description pages. I realize this differs from the practice of other "publications", but I hope it won't dissuade you from continuing to contribute. EEng (talk) 03:25, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
