Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Daisy von Scherler Mayer, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. LizardJr8 (talk) 21:48, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Got it, thank you for clarifying. We do own the copy write to this copy. We will add a clause to Daisy's website to give permission to use as public domain. Is there a reason the photo wasn't accepted? MNW2009 (talk) 23:19, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Sorry about the photo, it got caught in the revert when I restored an older version. I'll add it back now. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 23:32, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Oh, hi. I just emailed Lauren Hurt to confirm about the rights to the photograph. When you say you will add a clause to Daisy's website, which website is that? I can't find one listed in the Daisy von Scherler Mayer article. --GRuban (talk) 15:53, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

@GRuban: I believe it's this one: Daisy von Scherler Mayer - Director for Television and Film. There's a notice at the bottom that reads "The text of this website is released under the Creative Commons Zero Waiver 1.0 (CCo)." ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 16:02, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Daisy added the suggested clause: "The text of this website is released under the Creative Commons Zero Waiver 1.0 (CCo)" to her website to give permission to use the bio on other websites. This is her website: https://daisyvonscherlermayer.com/ - thanks! MNW2009 (talk) 16:02, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

@ARandomName123 and LizardJr8: Aha. I see now, there used to be an official website listed, but you deleted it, along with all the other references, in your edits. Please don't do that. Please. References are very important. In fact, since you're writing in the plural, "we", is there a chance you are either the subject's employees or a public relations agency the subject has hired? If so, you really, really shouldn't just edit the article yourselves, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and follow the rules there: you want to make suggestions on the article talk page. When you do, you can ping me (or possibly the other two people I'm pinging here, don't know if they'll be interested), and one or more editors that aren't working for the article subject will quite possibly make the changes for you ... but until then, because of my suspicions of your CoI and especially because your edits deleted all those references, I'm going to revert those edits. Pinging the other editors so they know what is going on here. --GRuban (talk) 16:03, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
