Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Most Evil Killers, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Stephen Griffiths. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:33, 15 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello Németh Máté! Your additions to Marie Robards have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

  • 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. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

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. Hut 8.5 18:50, 28 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

It does certainly look like you wrote at least part of this by copying another source extremely closely. For example this (which you added):
Then, one night in January 1994, during her senior year of high school they studied Shakespeare’s Hamlet. According to her, Stacey turned to her favorite part of the play: the soliloquy of Danish monarch Claudius, who poisoned his brother (Hamlet’s father) to gain the throne. Stacey recited Claudius speech in which he wonders if he can ever repent
This magazine article wrote something extremely similar:
Then, one night in January 1994, during her senior year of high school... Marie was studying Shakespeare’s Hamlet with Stacey, one of the school’s most popular girls. According to Stacey’s version of events (which Marie has never denied), Stacey turned to her favorite part of the play: the soliloquy of Danish monarch Claudius, who poisoned his brother (Hamlet’s father) to gain the throne...Stacey recited Claudius’ agonizing speech in which he wonders if he can ever repent
Changing a few bits isn't enough I'm afraid, it's called close paraphrasing. You need to write the text in your own words. We do also expect that articles are based on reliable sources and that they cite sources to back up the content. The video you linked to isn't a reliable source (although the magazine article likely would be). Hut 8.5 12:03, 29 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Ways to improve Mark of a Killer

Hello, Németh Máté,

Thank you for creating Mark of a Killer.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

This article needs more references, to meet general notability.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Whiteguru}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Hello @Whiteguru:,

I appreciate your advice and insight, since this is my first created page.

I will give more references as you mentioned. I’m glad that this is the only problem you found with the page, so I will edit it soon.

Thank You for your advice!

Hello Németh Máté, I see you have done some work on the article, and supplied references. In this instance, as you are on a learning curve, I have passed article. A key independent, reliable reference would be to add some reviews about this series. That would help, significantly. Can I draw your attention to this → WP:UGC? This article is one of our policies and draws attention to the sorts of things we don't call reliable sources. It is worthy of consideration as part of your learning about Wikipedia. Go well! --Whiteguru (talk) 20:24, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Unsourced biographical details

edit

Hi. I wanted to explain why I reverted a change you made to Lauri Hendler. In this edit, you added a birth date, but you didn't cite a reliable source. Wikipedia has strict rules on content in biographies of living persons because this can impact real peoples' lives. Please be aware that many sites on the internet purport to give information about celebrities, but few of them of reliable. Sites like the IMDb use user-generated content, and they should not be cited in biographical articles. Similarly, celebrity gossip websites should not be used because most of them don't have a history of fact checking or publishing corrections. Fan sites and blogs are self-published and have no editorial control. We also can't use primary documents, such as government birth databases or genealogical websites (which are also typically user-generated, as above). This means that the number of available sources is quite slim, and we often have to either go without this information or wait until a source like Entertainment Weekly or the BBC publishes an interview that includes a birth date. If you're not sure whether a source is reliable, you can ask at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:36, 7 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

April 2024

  Hello, I'm Donald Albury. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Melrose, Florida, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The source you cited is not a reliable source per Wikipedia standards. Melrose is an unincorporated community with no defined boundaries, and there is therefore no way to definitively count the population. Donald Albury 12:10, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
