Your userpage edit
Is that copy paste from somewhere? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 10:06, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
- Is it a copy paste from here? Anyway, as you've said it is a copy paste and you are now working on it, I must delete it and ask you to copy paste it from the source to your PC. Please work on it there. We are not allowed to have copyrighted content at any page at Wikipedia. Please do not be offended or put off by this. It is simply a way to obey the law. If you have any questions, please ask. Best wishes, and welcome. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 12:11, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

Nigeria articles edit
Hi, John. The content was about Nigeria, right? So, I'm thinking that maybe you are from Nigeria and in Nigeria. If so, you are a very valuable asset to Wikpedia. You could create articles about Nigeria topics and even upload images from where you are. There are lots of images we need, like local dishes, fruits and vegetables, towns, train stations, household objects, many! What do you think? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 21:22, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
Oh, and you don't have to say where you are. You can just keep that private if you want. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 21:23, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Port Harcourt Railway 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 Draft:Port Harcourt Railway, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It appears to be a clear copyright infringement of naij.com/498636-port-harcourt-kano-train-transportation-begins.html. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.
- It is a rejected submission at Wikipedia:Articles for creation, and it has not been edited in over six months. (See section G13 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)
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 removed 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. 1989 15:27, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
