  Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Dawn Avery, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Such-change47 (talk) 09:29, 27 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi GreenEnergy2022, and thank you for copyediting this article. Unfortunately, I had to revert your edit. As MOS:DOB states, the date and place of the subject's birth should be inside a parenthetical, not a separate sentence. Additionally, the last sentence of the lede was correct as "Among her other projects..."; changing it to "Despite..." makes the sentence less neutral by implying that the number of projects she works on is surprising. Again, thank you for your work. If you have any questions or concerns, drop me a line on my talk page or reply here and ping me. Quid Est Squid (talk) 17:26, 13 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Hello GreenEnergy2022! Your additions to Wood-free paper 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) 14:20, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your comment and observations on my edit. However, I hereby state and clarify that the materials I used in the Edit namely Handbook of Pulping and Papermaking by Christopher J. Bermann, Biotechnology for Pulp and Paper Processing by Pratima Bjpai and Evaluation of Surface lignin on Cellulose fibers with XPS published by Leena sisko Johansson, J. M Campbell and Krita Koijonon, were sourced from the public domain on the Internet and from Google Scholar freely available under open access and were appropriately referenced.  I do not need any copyright license to use what is freely available on the internet and on the Google Scholar. Other materials used in the edit of Wood free paper was sourced from The  Coniferous Blog ( a leading paper trading company) and appropriately referenced. The blog is in the open domain and not under any copy right restriction.
Also I paraphrased and structured my sentences in my own words without changing the facts of the matter.
Furthermore, I did not copy/translate any material from the sources used in my edit neither did my edit include any image.

The places where I found the overlapping content were https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-1409-4_2 and https://doi.org/10.1016/S0169-4332(98)00920-9. Neither of these journal articles is in the public domain; like almost everything available online, both enjoy copyright protection.

Once again thank you Dinnaa, we learn every day, sincerely speaking, before now I was under the understanding that any publication on Google Scholar is on the public domain and not under the copy right protection act but today I have learnt otherwise.
However, I have replaced that part of my edit from another source: Biermann, C. J. (1996). Handbook of pulping and papermaking. Elsevier.  
I remain grateful.
