Niligoar

Niligoar is also a Chan/Tao master. I request this page be edited to reflect that.--Jesucristo301 01:14, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

By the way Niligoar, do you mind taking a look at the "Taoism" page? Perhaps you should rename "Taoist Pantheon" to "Chinese Pantheon" considering the conversations we've had regarding this in the past.--ॐJesucristo301 11:53, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Re: Jesuscristo301 -- I am very well aware of the mess of misinformation presented and escalated under that article, and seems that much academic clarification and re-organization shall be in order as to preserve the integrities of both the original non-theistic Taoist philosophy (whose portion is pitifully marginalized by the present article in question), as well as the factual history of deviations/departures by ancient and modern theistic adoptions and practices therefrom. However, to challenge others' expertise by editting their interpretations is a risky, and potentially appaling business. I shall consider the praticality in starting a page on the original non-theistic Taosim, to which a link can be then referred under the current "Taoism" article. I will see myself to do this eventually, after careful researches to refine my opinions to start with, hopefully during my winter vacation.

Perhaps a "Tao Jia" vs. "Tao" page? In any case, Ganesha's blessing ;) --ॐJesucristo301 12:18, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Niligoar. All or some of your addition(s) to Ivolginsky Datsan has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 02:25, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
