Wikipedia and copyright

Hello I-CANT-THINK-OF-USERNAME!, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Al-Rahmah School have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of 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. — JJMC89 (T·C) 03:52, 14 May 2017 (UTC)

A page you started (Grass Island (Hawaii)) has been reviewed!

Thanks for creating Grass Island (Hawaii), I-CANT-THINK-OF-USERNAME!!

Wikipedia editor Boleyn just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Thanks for creating this; we really appreciate having new editors, there are lots of areas which need developing. However, please don't create articles without WP:RELIABLESOURCES. They all need to show clearly where the information is coming from. Can you please add your source to this article. Thanks again for your hard work.

To reply, leave a comment on Boleyn's talk page.

Learn more about page curation.

Speedy deletion nomination of North Penn Mosque

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 North Penn Mosque requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Hammersoft (talk) 14:53, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

July 2017

You have been warned several times but have continued to create unreferenced articles, e.g. Western Hills Park (Catonsville, Maryland), which has now been moved into the draftspace until it's ready. I'm assuming you're trying to help Wikipedia, but creating unreferenced, poor quality articles makes a huge amount of work for others. You have ignored all advice on this. Please stop or you could end up blocked. Boleyn (talk) 16:25, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

• And North Penn Mosque (currently tagged for speedy deletion under A7). It's only references are to the mosque's website. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:51, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

Pearl and Hermes Atoll

Your addition has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of 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. Dammitkevin (talk) 01:47, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

July 2017

Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Pearl and Hermes Atoll.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Dammitkevin (talk) 03:21, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Arden Parke

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 Arden Parke, 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 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Largoplazo (talk) 00:58, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

This is a very short article about an unremarkable housing community that gives no indication of significance, and then provides a link to a marketing site for the development. This gives the appearance that the article is primarily meant to lead people to that website. Wikipedia can't be used for that purpose. Largoplazo (talk) 01:00, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

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, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. 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 copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:40, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

Got it, thanks for letting me know! I'll do the same for List of mountain peaks of Missouri, in which I also copied text to from Mountain peaks of Canada. UnsignificantEditor (talk) 22:09, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

TeamTrees and Draft:Team Trees

Hi, Melofors. I see you're currently working on TeamTrees. I suggest not start working on the page TeamTrees because there's a draft currently pending review at Draft:Team Trees. If you want to contribute to the topic, please do it in the draft because the topic hasn't been approved to be an article yet. You could continue your work by moving and modifying your contributions to the draft. If you think the correct title should be "TeamTrees", start a discussion in Draft talk:Team Trees. I really appreciate your effort. —Wei4Green • #TeamTrees🌲 03:27, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

@Wei4Green: Oh, I didn't know there was a draft. Thanks for letting me know. Melofors (talk) 03:32, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

@Wei4Green: I plan to expand the draft tomorrow. Melofors (talk) 03:42, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Nice. By the way, your first ping didn't reach to me even after you corrected the template parameter. Only your second ping did. The short template for the {{reply to}} is {{re}}. —Wei4Green • #TeamTrees🌲 03:52, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
