Welcome!

Hello, Tmavroko, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Williams school(s)

Hi. Adam isn't available right now, so I'm following up with questions on his page. So the pages you're interest in are the Williams Memorial Institute and the Williams School (Connecticut)?

I'm surprised that two articles exist. As it currently stands, the first one is about the building, while the second one is about the school. That said, I don't think that there should be two separate articles at all. One important question is whether the modern school still operates in the historical building. If it doesn't, then there might be an argument to keep them separate (though even then, I'm skeptical). I think the best thing to do would be to merge them. But let me know what you think.

What I am interested in is the school, but the building used to be in the city of new London, but when it merged with Connecticut College it transferred up to our campus with the same mission and name. In the Wikipedia article I will be talking about the history of the school ( how it was founded, by who, and funding) then I will talk about the programs it offered ( what classes, who graduated, and hyperlink their pages) and then what the school is now. ( secondary, middle school, prep school for college students).

Image upload

You can only use images on Wikipedia that are available under an appropriate free license. If you own the copyright, you can release them under the appropriate license. There are some cases where the images are no longer subject to copyright, which has to do with when they were published, or (for unpublished images) how longer the copyright owner has been dead. So you'd need to find out who the photographer was, when the died, and if the images were ever published. (Archives can also claim copyright over their holdings.)
