Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Titanic (1997 film) , did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use your sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. -- Doniago (talk) 14:05, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Jesse V.. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! • Jesse V.^(talk) 14:59, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

St Peter's

I undid your edits because the picture that you put at the top is already in the article, along with several other similar views of the exterior.

The reason that the Panini picture has been used as the lead is that it is one of the highest quality depictions of the interior, showing the details and the grand scale better than any photo does. Good external views, on the other hand, are a dime a dozen. Every tourist has them.

Another reason why the painting is in top place is that it doesn't fit conveniently into the tightly organised text of the article. The interior views that are reproduced, further down, have been carefully selected as a "set" of images. To a graphic designer, making the layout and sections look good is part of creating a successful article.

Disambiguation link notification for May 31

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Top Crime (TV channel), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cold blood (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

why is the coliseum so big cause they would fight tin it so they needed space — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.162.215.17 (talk) 19:34, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Amphitheatre

I removed the Colosseum photo - and shall do so again - because it's uninformative and overcrowds the article. It shows only the outside of the building; the details are further concealed by darkness and the shape is completely distorted by the wide-angle view. One might say that it's all atmosphere and little substance. For the most part, article lede sections are best supported by very clear, well-chosen images that illustrate the topic. The Arles amphitheatre picture is particularly clear, well framed and appropriate - it offers a vantage point that reveals both the inside and the outside of an ancient amphitheater building still in use. In other words, it's both ancient and modern, and covers the topic rather nicely. Please could you also remember to always use edit summaries when editing articles - when you simply revert like you did, it starts to look like edit warring. Thanks for reading this.

Eurasia Tunnel

Hello, I noticed your valuable edits on Marmaray. Please have a look at Eurasia Tunnel. Thank you, Yozer1 (talk) 10:42, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Doing the right thing

Adriano, you have been editting for two years now. And after two years you are still not looking carefully at the articles that you edit. You have to start looking at the way that articles are put together. They do not start with a quote, regardless of how good the quote is. Every single article starts by telling you what the subject of the article is. That is because this is an encyclopedia, not a work of creative literature.

Secondly, as I have said to you before, look before doing. If you had looked, you would have found a section specifically for quotations.

Also, "Without having seen the Sistine Chapel is not possible to form an idea of what a valuable man alone is able to obtain." The quotation is wrong in two places. The word "valuable" is incorrectly translated, and the word "obtain" is incorrectly translated. You are most welcome to add the quotation, if it is not somewhere in the article already. But firstly, find a good English translation of the German, because a man is not usually referred to as "valuable", and the word "obtain" means to "get something", not to "do something" or "achieve something".

Amandajm (talk) 11:52, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Adriano, your conduct is really odd! You have an explanation as to why the quote doesn't go at the top of the article. You have a direction to look for the quotation section, which is the right place to put it. And you still put the blinking quote at the top of the article. What is your problem?

Copyrighted text removed

Hi, Ariano.93. Your addition to Quirinale Palace has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without 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 text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions 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. The material appears to be identical to this .pdf. If you have added other copyrighted material to Wikipedia, please remove it yourself. Bishonen | talk 21:39, 19 August 2014 (UTC).

Please source your edits

Hi. You have been editing Wikipedia for two years, and your contributions are appreciated, but I noticed you have added content in several places without verifying it by citing a reliable source. For instance, this (no, Nanjing wall is longer) and this very recent edit (surely that's Rome, not Jerusalem?) have been reverted, as not only unsourced but apparently not factual. To be frank, I can't find anywhere where you've actually added a source; please correct me if I'm wrong. These edits seem made up. No canals on Bornholm! Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources. Bishonen | talk 09:39, 20 August 2014 (UTC).

• Re you latest edit, here: Yes, I said the Nanjing wall is longer, but *I*'m not a reliable source. And I don't know if it's the longest. You need a source before you say that. I repeat, read Wikipedia:Citing sources and don't add material without sourcing. Please. Bishonen | talk 13:46, 20 August 2014 (UTC).

August 2014

And again. You have given no reference for that edit, and the reference that was already there doesn't support it. Also your change doesn't fit with the article title. Look, you'll have to stop making these unsourced and dubious additions. Since you never respond to comments here, I don't even know if you're aware that you have this talkpage. I'm sorry, but the next unsourced edit you make, I'm going to have to block you from editing. Bishonen | talk 14:03, 21 August 2014 (UTC).

September 2014

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to America's Stonehenge. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Ken Gallager (talk) 18:41, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Adriano.93, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Quirinal Palace 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 a cited source. 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 without attribution. If you want to copy 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. Dougweller (talk) 20:29, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Blocked

I have blocked you for two weeks for your extremely persistent addition of unsourced (and wrong) content and also copyright violations despite many, many warnings about both. You have never answered any of the warnings and comments, and you never seem to stop making these disruptive edits. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Bishonen | talk 21:53, 11 December 2014 (UTC).

Reference Errors on 28 December

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

• On the Quirinal Palace page, your edit caused an unsupported parameter error (help). (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:22, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

January 2015

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Parkfield earthquake. Dawnseeker2000 16:45, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistent copyvio violations, ignoring many many warnings and apparently learning nothing from your two-week block. This, reinserted just a few days after that block expired, was copied from this site. I'm sorry, I'm sure you don't mean to harm Wikipedia, but that's what you're doing, and I have no choice but to block. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  Bishonen | talk 11:22, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

I'm prepared to unblock if you explain in detail what content from outside of Wikipedia is permitted for use here. Max Semenik (talk) 19:47, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

I can't publish on Wikipedia; no copyright violation, text of a law, a cooking recipe, gardening book, pictures and texts of other Internet sites with copyright.

I can publish on Wikipedia; album covers, frames and film posters, photographs of celebrities, images of Wikipedias in other languages, material from a mine site, entries translated from another Wikipedia. I promise that will not happen again. Adriano.93 (talk) 15:13, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

When can album covers be used? When can a frame be used? When can a film poster be used? Which photographs of celebrities can be used and which can't? PhilKnight (talk) 19:38, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Do whatever you want. If you want to unblock my account, okay, if you don't want, patience. I apologized, I did wrong, I said that will not happen again. More of this I can't do. I waited six months. Adriano.93 (talk) 22:04, 27 July 2015 (CEST)

Hi. (I've changed this into a simple dialog using ":" indentation, as you don't need to wrap every answer in a new unblock request.) I hope you don't mind a comment from me, but those questions asked by PhilKnight really are needed in order to find out whether you truly understand copyright policy here. For example, you say "I can publish on Wikipedia [...] photographs of celebrities". But as a generalization, that is incorrect - in some cases you can, and in some cases you cannot (and the same goes for other types of content). You need to know when you can and when you cannot publish a photograph of a celebrity (and those other things), and I can't see an admin unblocking you if you cannot explain that, as copyright is a very important part of publishing (legally as well as in terms of Wikipedia policy). Mr Potto (talk) 11:35, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi. I'm in good faith. I made a mistake. I know that some things cannot be published and other yes. As for the "photo of the celebrity", unless on the page where I want to take the material I find an explicit permission to copy the material. If I don't find any indication, I have to consider the image or text protected by copyright and therefore not suitable to be published on Wikipedia. I contact the responsible for the website to request permission to copy an image or text to use as a source. Adriano.93 (talk) 15:00, 28 July 2015 (CEST)
