Yes I know, that guy keeps reversing my properly sourced information just because he is on the mobile device and can't do any fixing, all he can do is delete. What a joke (UTC)

Your recent edits edit

  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (  or  ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Multiple copyright violations edit

  Your addition to Watkins Glen International has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. I have also reverted your copyvio additions to the Juan Pablo Montoya article, and will be checking other such contributions. If you know of further copyright infringements please highlight them, or revert the additions asap. Pyrope 00:07, 6 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add copyrighted material to Wikipedia, as you did at Ayrton Senna. After looking through your edit history I see that you have a long and ignominious track record of adding copyright protected materials to Wikipedia, that will likely take quite a while to remove. Do not add any further such material. If an edit involves copy and paste, then it is not welcome here. Pyrope 05:07, 7 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Just so that these are on the table for all to see, in addition to the three pages I have documented above, I have also so far removed copyright protected material that you added to the 1984 Italian Grand Prix, Korean Grand Prix and Phoenix street circuit pages. Doubtless I will find more, and I'll post them here when I do. Pyrope 05:23, 7 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

What this means? If I quote the source directly it is 'copyright'? Can you explain what was copyright in phoenix street circuit page? e Haken arizona (talk) 10:17, 7 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Most of the information you need is in my first posting, above, and through the links I've given you. In short, while you should always use external sources as references for information, you must not use their words. All of the removals that I have made have been verbatim copies of the source texts: the same words, in the same order, with the same punctuation. You are not "quoting" them, you are copying, and you do not have the right to do that. Quotations are used for short sections of text when it is important to show that that particular source used those particular words to comment on that particular subject. Quotations are normally used on Wikipedia to communicate opinions or points of view held on a topic, and they are always explicitly and clearly identified as quotations from a well-identified source. This is rare. Pyrope 16:17, 8 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for making this clarification. Now I know what to do. User talk:Pyrope Haken arizona (talk) 17:24, 8 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Copyright violations edit

 

Hello. I am Diannaa and I am an administrator on this wiki. Prose you find online is almost always copyright, and cannot be copied here; it's against the law to do so. All prose must be written in your own words. There's more information about copyrights and how it applies to Wikipedia at Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright. Copyright law and its application are complex matters, and you should not edit any more until you have taken the time to read and understand our copyright policies. Further copyright violations will result in you being blocked from editing. -- Diannaa (talk) 23:47, 22 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

I apologize about this. I will make effort not to commit same mistake in the future. I did made edits to use only my words but member Pyrope thought that was not enough without giving me any explanation or at least editing the article himself, all he did is erased my work and told me "try again".(talk) Haken arizona (talk) 14:55, 23 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

I also think it was not enough, and your work was still a copyright violation. Please be more careful in the future. Thanks, -- Diannaa (talk) 16:10, 23 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
Haken, take a look at your own behaviour. I am very willing to help new users, but I do not take kindly to being abused and lied to. You are also being disingenuous in your answers to Diannaa, as you actually asked for examples of the original copyright infringement, not the close paraphrasing. As, very clearly, all you had done was to copy and paste chunks of text from other websites, no examples were needed. All of my removals were examples. As for rewriting your text, that is your job and not mine. I provided you with plenty of information links that would have taken you to pages with very detailed and comprehensive information on copyright protections and the concept of "close paraphrasing". Neither I nor any other person on Wikipedia is your nanny. You and you alone are responsible for making sure that your additions are not unlawful, and any unlawful additions that are made will be removed if found. Pyrope 17:13, 24 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

February 2016 edit

  Hello, I'm Donner60. I noticed that you made a change to an article, The Dark Side of the Sun (film), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 03:54, 9 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Donner60 (talk) Footage was never lost. It was shelved by Avala films do to lack in entertainment value. IF you see the movie you will know it is garbage. Sources added to new edit.Haken arizona (talk) 04:25, 9 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. I struck the original message due to your explanation and citation of a source. I can't comment on the quality of the movie. The point of my edit was that you replaced content that had a source with apparently different content without a source. Thanks for letting me know that there is a source for your edit.
