Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Sammy Jo Prudhomme. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Sammy Jo Prudhomme, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. !dave 19:42, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

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. 2601:188:180:11F0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 19:52, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

• And read the above regarding WP:COI. 2601:188:180:11F0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 19:52, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Sammy Jo Prudhomme.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not continue to add copyrighted content. !dave 19:59, 29 December 2017 (UTC) Thank you for this info I was unaware of the conflict of interest

Copyright law and Wikipedia

Hello. I see that somebody left you a note in 2017 about copyright concerns, but perhaps they did not sufficiently explain the situation. You have added more text to the article Sammy Jo Prudhomme that is taken from an external source.

Wikipedia is governed by United States law, which means that we must respect copyright and remove material that may violate copyright from publication. We are required to block from access people who repeatedly paste such content on our site. Under US law, content is copyright protected as soon as it is written down. Unless the material does not qualify for copyright (most does), is too old to be protected, or is released under a license that allows us to use it, we can only use brief and clearly marked quotations from the material. Otherwise, it all has to be written down in our own unique language, utilizing the same paraphrasing skills required for academic institutions. Our concern is not merely with plagiarism, however (although that is concern). Our concern is with illegal infringement.

The material that you placed in this article in January includes substantial copying from two sources: https://osubeavers.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=3324 and https://usctrojans.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=2626. Both of these pages are published under explicit copyright reservation by the respective universities. ("© 2019 Oregon State Athletics. All Rights Reserved" and "© 2019 University of Southern California Athletics") We cannot use this text on Wikipedia, unless you are able to prove a license from the universities that allows us to do so.

Because the license legally has to be compatible with our own license, any license they grant would have to permit the material to be modified and commercially reused. We cannot accept licenses that restrict changes or redistribution, even for profit.

If you would like to ask these two universities to license the content they have claimed copyright over, please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials, which will explain the procedure.

If we do not receive such a license, this text - currently covered up on the article - will be removed in order to comply with the law. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 13:18, 6 January 2019 (UTC)

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because the username, Sammy Jo Prudhomme, matches the name of a well-known, living person.

If you are the person represented by this username, please note that the practice of blocking such usernames is to protect you from being impersonated, not to discourage you from editing Wikipedia. You may choose to edit under a new username (see information below), but keep in mind that you are welcome to continue to edit under this username. If you choose to do so, we ask the following:

1. Please be willing and able to prove your identity to Wikipedia.
2. Please send an email to info-enwikimedia.org. Be aware that the volunteer response team that handles email is indeed operated entirely by volunteers, and the reply may not be immediate.

If you are not the person represented by this username, you are welcome to choose a new username (see below).

A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" on their talk page.
2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
3. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. — JJMC89 (T·C) 06:18, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).
