Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Northeast Frontier Railway zone into Maligaon. 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. 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. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Ninja Diannaa (Talk) 17:13, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Copying from Wikitravel also requires proper attribution. If you don't understand how to do this or have any questions, please let me know. — Diannaa (talk) 14:58, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Abhi55402, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Northeast Frontier Railway zone has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• 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 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 designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk 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 can, but please follow the steps in 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) 17:15, 16 April 2016 (UTC)

Maligaon

Hi Abhi

Hope you are doing fine; its nice to know that you are former denizen of Maligaon. I have seen that you helped quite well in expanding Maligaon, nevertheless i find some information though accurate, not directly related to subject; which may has own articles to discuss broadly like Northeast Frontier Railway zone, Northeast Frontier Railway Stadium, Gauhati Airport and also Guwahati. I just tried to tidy-up things a bit. If you disagree, which you can re-add with edit summaries, also try to include more references.

Happy editing. भास्कर् Bhagawati Speak 10:24, 19 April 2016 (UTC)

You can definitely include notable denizens, people well covered by electronic or print media. We can also give a overview of Kamakhya junction in the transport section; you can help in expanding Kamakhya Junction railway station as well. Article on question undoubtedly updated on recent events.

Have a good time here. भास्कर् Bhagawati Speak 12:29, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without verifying permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted.

Please take this opportunity to be sure you understand our copyright policy and our policies regarding how to use non-free content. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  — Diannaa (talk) 13:16, 22 April 2016 (UTC)

Dear Diana,

I see that you have blocked me on Wikipedia for not following the standards. I contribute to Wikipedia during my lunch and other breaks and when I go back home, I provide the references. I've added references for all the sections I've added. Also, if one of the sections of wiki is applicable to another one, I think a user should be allowed to have it on all the relevant pages.

This is all I had to convey. I've a very demanding job which takes most of my day time and I do contribute to Wikipedia out of interest.

Thanks,

You were blocked for copying copyright material from elsewhere online into the article Maligaon. You copied from this article in the Assam Tribune, a copyright newspaper, and this web page, which is clearly marked as copyright at the bottom. You can't do that; in fact it's against the law to do so. — Diannaa (talk) 13:49, 22 April 2016 (UTC)

So, how do I provide information about the flooding situation? I've to provide a reference to validate the information and if I don't use a valid source, the content would be rejected.

Taking other people's copyright prose from their website without their permission is like stealing, and it's not allowed. You have to use the source website as a source of information only, and re-write the material in your own words. Then, you add a citation, showing where you got the information. — Diannaa (talk) 15:57, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
