Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Honi02, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Noida 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 a cited source. 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. Abecedare (talk) 04:05, 2 June 2015 (UTC)Reply




Hello Abecedare Do you think news is ever been copyrighted ,can you give reference to citations which you find appears to be copyrighted material .You said that ""Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase."" Which i find vague as when i use my words and phrases for Wikipedia editing ,you guys always say these words doesnt match relevant source ,and now when i use releavant news citation ,you think i am copying copyright materials. According to copyright act News,Journals ,Speeches are never comes under copyright .

your warning to block me if i contribute to Wikipedia makes me feared of contributing ,to my horror i found new editors are being harassed by many Wikipedians.I am feeling to quit Wikipedia because of your acts and comments.

your copyright allegations are baseless as news is never been under copyright .you r allegations Which i found completely malicious in nature because ,this was from relevant news source of times of India which is not a copyright materialHoni02 (talk) 03:02, 8 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Honi, the text of (recent) news and journal articles and speeches is certainly copyrighted, and cannot be reproduced on wikipedia (there are some narrow exceptions listed in the message I posted above). If you have any doubts about this you can get a third opinion, by posting a question at Wikipedia talk:Copyright problems, or clicking here and following the instructions to get help on your talkpage itself. As for the block-warning: as long as you are discussing the issue you can safely ignore that, since no one desires to block editors acting in good faith and making some errors in the process. However please do not resume adding cut-n-pasted content into wikipedia articles, till the discussion has settled. Abecedare (talk) 17:22, 8 June 2015 (UTC)Reply


Hello Abecedare let me tell you Names,News, shortwords,Slogans,short phrases,methods,plots or factual information is not protected in copyright .To get protection of copyright a work must be orignal.

I hope you understand my point , I hope you may ask this question at at appropriate forum.?Honi02 (talk) 04:29, 13 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Please brother reply an appropriate answer Honi02 (talk) 11:14, 17 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Abecedare is correct. News reports are copyrighted. Your understanding of copyright law is wrong. --NeilN talk to me 11:04, 2 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Gajendra Chauhan edit

Honi02, I am puzzled. Why do you think it is more appropriate to refer to Gajendra Chauhan as an [[Indian]] actor than as an [[India]]n actor? Please follow both links before responding. :-) R'n'B (call me Russ) 21:20, 11 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Honi02, In your zeal to defend whatever you have edited on the page, you are reverting the new edits indiscriminately undoing, in the process, the corrections to the language too.

Your WP:RFPP and WP:AIV reports edit

Your reports to these boards are wasting admins' time. Please review or re-review the instructions at the top of these boards, Wikipedia's protection policy, and what is not vandalism. --NeilN talk to me 11:17, 12 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of A.P Singh edit

 

If 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 A.P Singh, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
