editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I edit Wikipedia too, under the username Calabe1992. I noticed that one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Azeris in Canada with this edit, appeared to be unconstructive, and I’ve reverted it. In the future, please use the sandbox for testing and be sure to provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Please feel free to ask me questions about editing Wikipedia (or anything else) on my talk page. Calabe1992 (talk) 17:40, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
You restored information to this article which I removed because it was sourced to an Azerbaijan government news agency, which is not a reliable source. Please do not restore the information without a credible and reliable source to support it. Beyond My Ken (talk) 16:25, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of John Vafa, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.today.az/news/politics/43006.html.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.
If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 11:34, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of John Vafa
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on John Vafa requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Scopecreep (talk) 12:14, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
BLP categories
editPlease do not add religion, ethnic, or descent categories or information to biography articles without first ensuring that 1) the category is supported by reliably sourced article content and 2) the individual identifies as such. Please see WP:BLPCAT and WP:EGRS for additional information. Jezebel'sPonyobons mots 13:47, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
- Your category additions (which appear to be your only edits) continue be both contrary to categorization guidelines and WP:BLP policy. I explained above what criteria is required to include ethnic categories to articles, yet you continue to add them in violation of WP:BLPCAT/WP:EGRS. In addition, you also continue to add incorrect categories such as this. If you are determined to continue to add categories to articles, please read Wikipedia:Categorization prior to making further such edits in order to ensure you understand how the system works. --Jezebel'sPonyobons mots 15:24, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
