Hello, I'm ChamithN. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Seth Rogen, 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.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Patrice90210, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Frankie Muniz 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 a cited source. 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. NFLisAwesome 16:36, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

Best finish

I'd also like to remind you regarding Frankie Muniz's best finish in the infobox, it is referring to his best finish in the drivers' points championship, not his best finish in a race. Zappa24Mati 01:03, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

I also noticed that you tried to add in both best points and race finish. {{Infobox racing driver}} does not support best race finish, since it would be completely unneeded; the wins parameter is enough. Even then, you shouldn't just flat-out remove the infobox if it didn't work out. Zappa24Mati 00:54, 30 April 201

I am here with Frankie Muniz editing the page. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patrice90210 (talk • contribs)

Okay. Just remind him to read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest before he does anything. And tell him I said hi. Zappa24Mati 03:17, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

He's tweeting wiki right now on Twitter about his. Please stop being being counterproductive. I will tell him you said hi. Thanks for understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patrice90210 (talk • contribs)

I can see. For the most part, however, adding an infobox is not considered being counterproductive, nor is removing a picture because it is a blatant copyright violation. Thanks for telling him I said hi, though. Zappa24Mati 03:25, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

It is his page and about him. So that's the way it's going to be. You do your page about you how you want! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patrice90210 (talk • contribs)

I don't think you understand. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a fanpage. Nobody owns articles on Wikipedia. Zappa24Mati 03:30, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

May 2015

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Frankie Muniz, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Zappa24Mati 03:06, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Frankie Muniz. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

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. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.

What is your Twitter handle???? These changes are being made for Frankie Muniz by HIS public relations. He will tell you personally. Please stop messing up his page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patrice90210 (talk • contribs)

@ZappaOMatic. Also, public relations people should not be editing their clients' pages, as that would be a violation of conflict of interest. Zappa24Mati 03:15, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
