Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Kaftan into Abbasid Caliphate. 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. DanCherek (talk) 02:18, 11 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Café culture of Baghdad, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Criminal gang. 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.)

  Hello Ayham4002! Your additions to Al-Khulafa Mosque 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. — Diannaa (talk) 11:53, 16 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hassan Pasha (Mamluk)

edit

Hi @Ayham4002, I found the article on Hassan Pasha to be super interesting. I think it would be a good article to nominate for Did You Know? Let me know if this is something I can help you with. Annwfwn (talk) 23:14, 18 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Yes! You can nominate it for the "Did You Know?" section, I'd appreciate it since Iraqi history is barely talked about sadly. Ayham4002 (talk) 23:58, 18 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Ayham4002 excellent, you can see the nomination here. Annwfwn (talk) 01:06, 19 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

DYK for Hassan Pasha (Mamluk)

edit

On 19 November 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Hassan Pasha (Mamluk), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Baghdad governor Ḥassan Pasha bought the slave who married his granddaughter and went on to become governor of the same city? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Hassan Pasha (Mamluk). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Hassan Pasha (Mamluk)), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Wikiproject

Hi, I see you've contributed a lot to Al-Qaskhun, would you be interested in a wikiproject on oral tradition? Kowal2701 (talk) 18:46, 25 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello. I'm not too familiar with that project, I've only contributed to al-Qaskhun because its a historical Iraqi profession that hasn't been documented very well on Wikipedia so I'm unfortunately going to decline but I appreciate the question nonetheless. Ayham4002 (talk) 00:01, 26 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
But I would not be opposed to including the article as part of the project since I believe this stuff needs at least some sort of significant recognition. Ayham4002 (talk) 00:04, 26 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yeah it’d be included Kowal2701 (talk) 06:31, 26 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
