[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Draft:Lila Aviles, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:
- Copying text from other sources
- Policy on copyright
- Frequently asked questions on Wikipedia's copyright policy
- Policy and guideline on non-free content
If you still have questions, there is the teahouse, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

Christos Nikou
[edit]Hi. I've moved the article you created to Draft:Christos Nikou, which is the designated place for articles which are not yet ready for mainspace. In case you're not aware, this article isn't ready yet because it's completely unsourced, see WP:V. Once you think the article is ready, I suggest submitting it through the WP:AFC process so that a more experienced editor can review it. Lennart97 (talk) 10:45, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
Also, I saw your post at the Teahouse, which makes me wonder: who is "we"? Sharing an account with multiple people is not allowed, see WP:NOSHARING. I also advise you to take a look at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest, just in case that applies here. Lennart97 (talk) 10:54, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
Important policies
[edit]In Draft:Lila Aviles, you added text taken straight from https://www.alphaviolet.com/the-chambermaid-la-camarista/ , and restored it after it had been deleted. As the first note on this page explains, that is a copyright violation, which is not allowed. Please take a minute to read the policies linked to in that note.
Another important Wikipedia policy is that concerning paid editing. Wikipedia editors are volunteers who do this as a hobby, and while it can sometimes be possible to edit Wikipedia for an individual who receives some form of compensation for their edits, it is mandatory to disclose such relationships. Given that your user name coincides with the name of the company promoting the people you have been writing about, it is reasonable to assume that you represent that company. Having a company name as your username violates Wikipedia's user name policy, but even if you should change your user name you have to read and follow the policy regarding paid editing.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.
Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page.
You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text
{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page. 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.
Thank you.-- The Anome (talk) 14:57, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Alpha Violet. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Christos Nikou".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
