Welcome!

Hello, Roseahrens, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

A couple of points relating to an edit you made connected to a paper cited in an article

edit
  • Hello, Rose. In this edit you said that you were adding a "table from the original 2010 study referenced throughout the first paragraph of the Education section of [the article]". The only paper dated 2010 referenced in that paragraph is "Making Space for Learning Trauma informed practice in schools", but I can't find the table in that paper. Can you give me a page reference?
  • Since you have indicated that you had a part in producing the referenced paper, you should read Wikipedia's guideline on conflict of interest before doing any more editing related to it, and make sure you edit in conformity with that guideline.

In response to the table/paper cites

edit
  • Hi James, thank you so much for your feedback about the edit I recently made. I realize that my wording was quite unclear in that edit summary, the study that the original author is referencing was conducted in Spokane, Washington and the citation labeled:

Blodgett, C., Lanigan, J. D. (2018). The association between adverse childhood experience (ACE) and school success in elementary school children. School Psychology Quarterly, 33(1), 137-146. doi:10.1037/spq0000256 includes the 2010 study, although the article was written in 2018.

  • Additionally, I didn't have any part in producing the referenced paper I was simply trying to state that I had cited the paper previously.

Thanks for the clarifications. However, your answers create problems. You uploaded a copy of a table to Wikimedia Commons, stating that it was your own work. You now state that it comes from a paper which you "didn't have any part in producing". I also see a copyright notice "© 2018 American Psychological Association" which appears to apply to that paper, and I have been unable to find any evidence that it is licensed for free re-use. It therefore seems that the inclusion of that table is a copyright infringement, so I shall remove it from the Wikipedia article and nominate it for deletion from Wikimedia Commons. If there are, in fact, reasons which i haven't seen but which you know of why it is not a copyright infringement then please let me know, so that I can reverse those actions.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Roseahrens/sandbox

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 User:Roseahrens/sandbox requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://blogs.extension.iastate.edu/scienceofparenting/2015/09/14/break-the-cycle-of-childhood-trauma/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy 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 "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 deleted 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.  Velella  Velella Talk   17:26, 3 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
