Hi there, please feel free to write on this page.
LauraFair (talk) 00:08, 12 March 2022 (UTC) Hello. I can see you made changes to my edits. Please feel free to add credible sources for your edits.
- Hello, actually I removed a small part which didn't have a valid reference. Provided references -for that part- didn't mention the name of the person-that is unacceptable. For sure I would provide credible sources if I add anything new. Thanks anyways. Erfan2017 (talk) 00:15, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
LauraFair (talk) 00:47, 22 July 2022 (UTC) Please do not links and others edits. You are more than welcome to add your parts but deleting other works is vandalism and against Wikipedia's policy.
- I'm a bit confused and would be very grateful if you could kindly enlighten me. As of my understanding you are saying that if you made a "wrong" statement which is not in the provided reference, I should not remove it. It is because it is "other"'s work? It this your understanding of Wikipedia? I read the reference several times, what you mentioned that VOA named 20:30 as "This program was criticized for interviewing with political prisoners" is never mentioned in the article (only in comments by one of the readers). Therefore, that sentence is totally wrong. I will delete it again and would be more than happy to take this to the "notice board". Please read the definition (vandalism!).

- I understand you have political association with Mr. Kamran Najafzadeh (or you are his pseudo personality) but please stop vandalizing my work. External references from credible sources (e.g. Guardian) have to be published.
- I will report you and your associations if you continue this behavior.
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Kamran Najafzadeh, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

File permission problem with File:Najafzadeh Hejazi.jpeg
edit
Thanks for uploading File:Najafzadeh Hejazi.jpeg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 10:27, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
edit
You have recently edited a page related to pseudoscience and fringe science, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
