Hello,

Your recent edits on the Doris (4.5×6) were certainly well intentioned. However they raise a few problems:

  1. you claim to have found an original Doris, but your picture is actually showing the more common Doris-P;
  2. the picture you included is linked from Flickr without providing a link pointing back to the corresponding Flickr page (see how to add images);
  3. Camerapedia articles rarely mention the use of such or such camera by a famous photographer, we may include a reference to Mike Disfarmer only if his use of the Doris was well documented, but I found no mention of this on www.disfarmer.com or on any other website;
  4. the mention of Brian Hubmann is obviously superfluous.

Your creation of a page specifically devoted to Brian A.Hubmann is more problematic. This person has nothing to see with camera history, and I had to delete the page.

You may add a message in the article's talk page, stating who you are and explaining your relationship with Disfarmer, and testifying that this photographer used a Doris from 1952. Then we might add a short mention of this photographer on the camera's page itself. As for the picture, you are obviously welcome to insert it, but only if you provide a link back to Flickr.
