December 2021 edit

  Hello, I'm Autarch. I noticed that you recently removed content from David J. Simms without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

February 2022 edit

  Hello, I'm Isabelle Belato. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Nirmala Sitharaman seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Isabelle 🔔 13:57, 15 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello 192.76.8.95! Your additions to Right to education have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

  • 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. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

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) 20:23, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

A cup of tea for you! edit

  Well. What a soap opera this has turned out to be. I don't want it to get lost in all the chaos that you did a damn good job with the AN/I fling, weird as things may have turned out subsequently. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 05:20, 7 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Tamzin Thanks. I really wasn't expecting Malnadach to end up blocked as an LTA. I don't understand what would motivate someone to make 10 million edits fixing broken/obsolete HTML while simultaneously creating a massive number of accounts to harass themselves, it's mind-boggling that someone would put that much effort into running a "good hand" account. LTAs are weird. 192.76.8.95 (talk) 17:28, 7 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
There are a surprising number of LTAs associated with mass-editing, though usually for reasons different than Malnadach. Still putting substantial effort into good hands is a thing Wonderfool/Robdurbar or Poetlister come immediately to mind. An analogy to Archtransit has already been made, which of course leads us to Pastor Theo and the even more baffling case of 172/Cognition still don't know what to think about that last one. 74.73.224.126 (talk) 01:20, 8 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
