  Hello, I'm TopGun. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Chief of Army Staff (Pakistan), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. lTopGunl (talk) 14:42, 10 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

November 2014 edit

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. lTopGunl (talk) 15:09, 10 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

COAS General Raheel Sharif edit

 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of COAS General Raheel Sharif, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.pakistannewsday.com/profile-general-raheel-sharif/.

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.)

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.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 04:42, 11 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Please see things globally not locally. The article Raheel Sharif is already well written and referenced. if you want to add new things you are most welcome but don't just change the style of writing which is already fine. kind regards. 119.158.13.146 (talk) 05:47, 11 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

The info in this article is most latest and up to the date, it is not just style of writing. The picture of General Raheel Sharif in this article is with stash and hence qualify him as Chief of Army Staff of Pakistan. --Kalsoomnawaz (talk) 07:17, 11 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of COAS General Raheel Sharif 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 COAS General Raheel Sharif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from rv blatant copyvio from https://www.ispr.gov.pk/front/main.asp?o=t-chiefs&dept=coas. 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 or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — 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 or image 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 this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 16:06, 11 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Raheel Sharif edit

I do not believe that the text is free to use for the following reasons.

  • The disclaimers only appear to allow attributed reproduction of the content; there appears to no provision to allow changes to the text or commercial use, as required by the CC BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL licenses that Wikipedia needs
  • Despite the disclaimers, one site is clearly tagged Copyrights 2014. ISPR. All Rights Reserved and the other Pakistan Army Web Portal Copyright © 2009-2014 which suggests that they do not see its content as public domain. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. But in any case the copyrighted text is far too promotional to be useful for Wikipedia's purposes, so there would not be any point in your jumping through all the hoops that are required.

In any case, it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: hails from a martial stock... battle hardened and renowned... had embraced Shahadat... the prestigious School... graduating with distinction... has had the honor... the prestigious Royal College of Defence Studies, United Kingdom.. I don't believe that Pakistan Army pages are 'independent verifiable sources for their own commanders, they read like press releases.

He is obviously notable enough for and article, but it needs to be in your own words and with independent references Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:55, 12 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
