Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse!

edit
 
Hello! Ezimoo, you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us! Liz Read! Talk! 22:17, 24 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hello Liz, I'm sorry I did not reply your mail. Its been long I've been on Wikipedia, but I'm bouncing back to it soon.
As for the invitation to Teahouse, actually I don't know how to go about it. But I can learn if I'm taught.
However, I am appreciate the advise on how to use copyrighted materials on Wikipedia. Thanks also for not blocking me. Ezimoo (talk) 21:45, 23 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Hello Ezimoo! 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) 14:14, 27 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Diannaa, thank you for drawing my attention to these errors I have committed. It will not happen again. Thanks. Ezimoo (talk) 09:33, 24 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:FGM and girls’ education

edit
 

Hello, Ezimoo. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "FGM and girls’ education".

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.

Ironworking and Deforestation in Igboland moved to draftspace

edit

Thanks for your contributions to Ironworking and Deforestation in Igboland. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. voorts (talk/contributions) 23:03, 21 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Pharm (Professor) Patience Ogoamaka Osadebe

edit

Hello Ezimoo,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Pharm (Professor) Patience Ogoamaka Osadebe for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
