Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Ingarix, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to José Gaspar Rodríguez de Francia 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) 21:02, 3 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Baltic Germans into Resettlement of Baltic Germans. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 20:04, 23 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

I need you to respond to this edit

Are you fixing the dab links? More importantly, just using Google links doesn't make an acceptable reference. Please read WP:CITE. For books we must have title, author, publisher, published date (not reprint date) and vitally page number. Doug Weller talk 18:20, 1 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

You haven't responded and are still citing incorrectly - a block is possible if you won't communicate edit

Not everyone can read Google books, or read what you see. That's one reason that you need to provide page numbers. See User:Uncle G/On common Google Books mistakes. But that's not the most important thing. Wikipedia is a collaborative exercise and communication between editors is vital. If you won't or can't communicate then you probably shouldn't be editing. As an Administrator I can block you from editing. Please reassure me that this won't be necessary. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 13:07, 3 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

October 2016 edit

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without verifying permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted.

Please take this opportunity to be sure you understand our copyright policy and our policies regarding how to use non-free content. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Doug Weller talk 11:05, 4 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your lack of communication edit

Wikipedia is a collaborative project; you are expected to pay attention to this page and respond to the concerns of other editors. Failure to do so may result in your editing privileges being revoked due to said concerns. When a new message is posted to this page, you will receive a notification similar to the one in this image. The conventions of talk pages are outlined at Help:Using talk pages and Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines.

When you have understood this concern, please summarize the messages on this page (including this one), state how your editing will improve in response to them and place {{adminhelp}} on this page. An administrator will soon remove the warning messages. Doug Weller talk 12:25, 4 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your edits edit

Hey Ingarix, too bad you are blocked. There are some tight-ass trolls around here, unfortunately. I saw you made some good expansions of Bolivian articles. I hope you will come back under a different name to finish your work. Cheers, Tisquesusa (talk) 00:35, 6 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
