[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Philipnelson99. I wanted to let you know that one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Humyo—has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thank you. Philipnelson99 (talk) 00:15, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't aware of any advertising in the update, but I will respect your decision even though it does seem far-fetched. Ksanker (talk) 00:21, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. IceWelder [] 09:21, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Steve Biras, you may be blocked from editing. IceWelder [] 11:45, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Alright. I'll see if I can add in the proper ref's for each of my edits. I've mastered it now, but unfortunately, there was a few that I did incorrectly. Is it better to delete the edits for now, or add the ref's? Ksanker (talk) 20:31, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Re Kaine

[edit]

Hi. I noticed you picked up the review for Kaine. Just a suggestion, but maybe you should look at this guideline page for the review process. What's there at the moment isn't either problems to be solved or constructive criticism. I can't do anything with...what's there now. ProtoDrake (talk) 09:18, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the heads up. It's something my daughter is thrilled about, so I thought I'd take a swing at it. I'll review your suggestions. Ksanker (talk) 16:57, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Control copyright icon Hello Ksanker! Your additions to Draft:Green Shirt Day 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. 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.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
  • 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 either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • 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 described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

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, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 06:08, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Menu/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 00:58, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Appreciate the feedback. I'll check out where I incorrectly chose a source. Ksanker (talk) 03:00, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Gruit ‎. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Hello, Ksanker. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Green Shirt Day".

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.
