Wikipedia and copyright[edit]

Control copyright icon Hello Joeccho, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to 2019 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. (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 the 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 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 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.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also 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. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:17, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for removing incorrect/unsupported data[edit]

Good eye catching the erroneous inclusion of Egypt in this table: [1] I also appreciate that you left an edit comment, because it certainly would've looked like a suspicious deletion. In the future, could I get you to add something like "Removed false information not supported by source[ref/etc]." if you make similar edits? I had to follow the ref to the WHO site which did verify Egypt wasn't listed in their data. Thanks again! →‎ GS →‎ → 04:30, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, Shandong Yinfeng Life Science Research Institute, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Microworlds[edit]

Please note that disambiguation pages like Microworlds are simply navigation aids to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. For that reason, they are kept in a simple format including a short introduction without detail, and entries with only one blue link. The lead that you added to Microworlds would be better placed on a 'List of things that are microscopic'. Leschnei (talk) 13:25, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for February 9[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited DDoS mitigation, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Firewall. 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) 05:58, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

GS[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in blockchain and cryptocurrencies. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose discretionary sanctions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Ethereum[edit]

Hi, please be advised that all cryptocurrency articles we are only using 'top shelf' sources, (aka WP:RS. This means that ethereum.org, blogs, crypto websites like the block, etc are not RS and cannot be used. Thanks! Jtbobwaysf (talk) 02:24, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copy within[edit]

You did not identify the source of the material in your edit. Copying within Wikipedia is acceptable but it must be attributed.

Presumably, it came from Past life regression.

This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. However, for future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, linking to the source article and adding the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved.

While best practices are that attribution should be added to the edit summary at the time the edit is made, the linked article on best practices describes the appropriate steps to add attribution after the fact. I hope you will do so.

I've noticed that this guideline is not very well known, even among editors with tens of thousands of edits, so it isn't surprising that I point this out to some veteran editors, but there are some t's that need to be crossed.S Philbrick(Talk) 13:13, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

April 2023[edit]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Cryonics into Aldehyde-stabilized cryopreservation. 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. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:55, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Propose not purpose[edit]

The verb you were looking for in these edits was "propose", not "purpose". Yue🌙 20:24, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please proofread your edits[edit]

請校對您啲編輯。

Competence is required on the English Wikipedia. This does not mean you cannot contribute without making grammatical mistakes or typos; everyone makes them, even native speakers. However, you have been a contributor to the English Wikipedia for over four years and still consistently write with poor grammar, while ignoring comments left on your talk page and on others' (including comments about more serious policy violations). You can request that other editors make changes on your behalf on talk pages, but if that seems like too much of a hassle for you, please just double check and proofread your edits. Your grammatical mistakes are not minor, occasional ones – they are in every sentence you write and are mistakes of basic English grammar. Yue🌙 23:20, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

August 2023[edit]

I reviewed your recent edits to Crime in Hong Kong and firmly believe you do not have the required competency to edit on the English Wikipedia. I am not talking about a lack of English fluency; I do not think your level of English is competent enough given the frequency of your basic grammatical errors. You also demonstrate a lack of care in reviewing your edits; you leave spaces after your full stops (periods), make obvious typos (e.g. "doctory" instead of "factory"), and leave random emojis and symbols in your body text (as in the aforementioned article).

Please at least acknowledge you are trying to avoid these mistakes and improve; I see that you do not respond to comments on your talk pages or pings. Although you are acting in nothing but good faith to improve the English Wikipedia, if you continue to have zero communication on these issues, I will request administrative input on your case. All the best, Yue🌙 22:06, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

One of the reason that Wikipedia is great and our technology evolute so fast is make use of the law of specialization and cooperation. In Wikipedia, every one can contribute, but not everyone competency are the same. Some are good at computer, some are good at learning social issue, some are good at sourcing, some are good at psychology, some are good at linguistics, some are good at English grammar. Therefore, every Wikipedian are fine to look at error and correct it. This is the beauty of Wikipedia. W
While I appreciate you have good English grammar skills, but I think you should learn more about cooperative attitude and online team spirit, which is essential skills in 21st century. In the mentioned article, there are no Wikipedian update to latest statistics for many years, so please appreciate and use cooperative attitude, thanks. I understand english compentancy is required, but your mentioned article is about Hong Kong, where native person who are most competent on that topics (i.e. Hong Kong People) are not English, Hong Kong style english are expected to occurred.

There are already very few person "competency" in these issue, and there are almost no update that can reflect current situation in Hong Kong in English Wikipedia. Hong Kong has a drastically changed since June 2019 but many article does not update to reflect on that. Just like your mentioned article is very outdated before I edit.

A tag has been placed on KK Park (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines 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 deleted without delay.

Cut and paste moves[edit]

I have reverted all your cut and paste moves relating to the Hong Kong security laws. With these cut and past moves, the original history is lost and that is a violation of the licenses in use.

On the top row (under the tab "more") is an option to move the article. That will keep the history in tact. The Banner talk 09:35, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. But the move page action rejected by the system due to the exist of the target page. Cloud29371 (talk) 11:25, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Did you notice that the articles/laws have different names? So there is no need for a disambiguation page. The Banner talk 13:01, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes but there are no direct and intuitive way to tell reader there are two set of national security law in Hong Kong in the article. Cloud29371 (talk) 13:26, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Did you look at the hatnotes at the top of the page? The Banner talk 13:53, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

March 2024[edit]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.
