Hi, i wondered how i can add photos to a page/draft. Thank you --ClockB (talk) 10:56, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

@ClockB: Hi there! I enjoy using the Wikipedia:File upload wizard to upload photos to Wikipedia, and then add each photo to the appropriate article. As it states on the page, "Please ensure you understand copyright and the image use policy before proceeding." GoingBatty (talk) 13:44, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

Hello!

I want to edit the Wikipedia page for Norman Toynton. It says the page needs further verification, but I am not quite sure what needs to be verified, as citations are given for the quotation. Perhaps it is necessary to confirm the date of his death, which could be done by citing an obituary that appeared in the Guardian. If you could look at the page and tell me what, as an experienced Wikipedia person, you can see what needs to be verified, I'd be very grateful. --Ellagwendolyn (talk) 17:31, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

@Ellagwendolyn: Hi there! When looking to improve the Norman Toynton article, you could start by adding citations where the {{citation needed}} and {{better source needed}} templates are listed. You could also add citations to the "Selected collections" and "Prizes" sections, which are currently unreferenced. Thanks and happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 18:20, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

FYI; Tanya Nolan meets the majority here’s her info:

Tanya Nolan is a multi-genre artist, singer, songwriter, producer, and instrumentalist from Galveston, Texas, currently based in Houston. Known for her soulful melodies, dynamic stage presence, and genre-blending music spanning R&B, Pop, Jazz, and Gospel, Nolan has emerged as a prominent figure in contemporary American music.

Early Life and Education

Nolan began performing at age 15 with local bands in Galveston. She attended Grambling State University, where she performed as a snare drummer in the university's marching band, laying the foundation for her multifaceted musical career.

Career

In 2019, Nolan released her debut single, No Pressure, on her independent label ArtsessionZ, gaining recognition as a rising star in the music industry. She followed with Smile On My Face in 2021, whose music video garnered millions of views.

Her musical style, often described as a “musical gumbo,” reflects influences from R&B, Pop, Jazz, and Gospel. In 2024, she collaborated with Raheem DeVaughn on the sultry track HONEY, showcasing her versatility.

Her 2025 releases have strengthened her international presence, including Nobody, which is currently charted at #29 on the Smooth Jazz Billboard charts, and Let’s Celebrate, which spent 18 consecutive weeks on Shazam’s Top 50 Chart in China. Nolan’s first gospel single, Blessings, is currently charting in the Top 10 on Billboard. Her hit collaboration Like Water featuring Raheem DeVaughn charted at #11 on Billboard and #7 on Mediabase, highlighting her crossover appeal across multiple formats.

Nolan has performed at high-profile events such as Tiffany Haddish’s She Ready Foundation Gala, headlined the Emancipation Gospel Celebration concert at The Grand 1894 Opera House in Galveston, and recently headlined The Heart & Soul Concert Series with Kevin Ross in Houston, Texas, selling out the venue. Her 2025 gospel debut single, Blessings, was performed live at the 12th Annual Lyons Avenue Renaissance Festival in Houston.

Over the years, her hits, including Pace Yourself (featuring Raheem DeVaughn), Good Woman, and Like Water (reimagined as a smooth jazz remix), have charted on Billboard and solidified her position as a versatile artist.

Entrepreneurship and Philanthropy

Nolan owns the largest childcare center in Texas, Aww Better Child Care in La Marque, as well as Nolan’s Child Care Center in Galveston. She also manages multiple rental properties, providing employment for over 200 individuals. As the founder of ArtsessionZ, one of the first female-owned record labels, she advocates for artist empowerment and creativity in the music industry. Nolan has also developed products such as The Tanya Nolan After Dark Card Game and Nolan Crawford Butterfield Wine.

Her philanthropic work is extensive. Nolan actively gives back to her community through initiatives including annual Toy Drives providing thousands of toys to families, Thanksgiving Turkey Giveaways, Holiday Toy Drives distributing toys and gifts, and School Supply Drives for back-to-school support. She also promotes literacy and equality through campaigns like SAY IT LOUD by iOneDigital and the American Library Association Celebrity Read Campaign.

Recognition

Nolan has been featured in Billboard and on major news outlets including ABC News and NBC News. She has received honorary doctorate degrees in Humanitarianism and Music, as well as the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award for her contributions to music and community service.
