I have restored your entirely sensible edit. I cannot imagine what the bot what thinking of: perhaps it has malfunctioning tastebuds? Ian Spackman (talk) 21:03, 12 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a message letting you know that one of your recent edits to Jill Kelley has been undone by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

Hello Legaledits13, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Jill Kelley 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.  — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:17, 12 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • That a photograph is publicly available does not make it public domain. The photographer generally retains copyright for X-amount of years, currently (in the US) the photographer's life + 70 years after his/her death. As such, reusing it here (and claiming it as your own work) is a copyright violation. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:29, 12 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Conflict of interest policy

edit

Given the fact that you claim to have personally taken the picture of Kelley and her husband, it would seem that you have a close personal connection to the subject, therefore I ask you to stop directly editing the content of the article and instead propose changes on on the talk page and wait for other editors to determine the appropriateness. Thank you. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 15:36, 18 January 2014 (UTC)Reply
