  Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Gomsi may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "<>"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Speedy deletion nomination of Building acoustics

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Building acoustics requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://members.aisfpdc.org/assets/Uploads/FactFile-Information-Sheets/Building-Acoustics.pdf. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — HHHIPPO 19:09, 27 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Newlai Tingkhatra, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.echoofarunachal.com/?p=45590.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Ways to improve David Patrick Coonan

edit

Hi, I'm Kiwuser. MacCreator, thanks for creating David Patrick Coonan!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. There are too many headers for the amount of content. 'Personal Life' should be deleted altogether. I would also dispute the notability of this person.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. - Kiwuser (talk) 08:48, 1 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your multiple article creations are causing serious problems

edit

Can you please explain what you are doing? You have created multiple new articles by pasting other editors' drafts into article space. Two examples are Draft:David Patrick Coonan which you pasted into David Patrick Coonan and Draft:Piero Heliczer which you pasted into Piero Heliczer. First of all you may not copy any page on Wikipedia without clearly attributing the source. Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia has guidance on this. Secondly, many of these drafts are simply that, work in progress, and not suitable for article space yet. It is very discourteous to copy an other editor's draft work into an article without even notifying them first. Please stop doing this now so that the damage can be repaired. Voceditenore (talk) 10:28, 1 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hello, MacCreator, I've mentioned this issue at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Dozens of drafts copypasted into article space, so that the attribution and other problems can be fixed by administrators. Voceditenore (talk) 11:41, 1 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Supporting Indian Wikipedia Program resource distribution

edit

In 2017 - 2018, the Wikimedia Foundation and Google working in close coordination with the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Wikimedia India chapter (WMIN) and user groups will pilot a program encouraging Wikipedia communities to create locally relevant and high-quality content in Indian languages. This program (Code name: Project Tiger) will:

(a) Support active and experienced Wikipedia editors through the donation of laptops and stipends for internet access and
(b) Sponsor a language-based contest that aims to address existing Wikipedia content gaps.

The objective of the program is to provide laptops and internet stipends for existing editors who need support to contribute more actively. 50 basic model Acer Chromebooks and Internet stipends for 100 contributors are available for distribution. Provided resources are the sole property of the beneficiaries and should be used for the betterment of the movement.

If you're an active Wikimedian, and interested to receive support from this project, please apply. It will take around 10 minutes of your time, and will ask descriptive questions about your contribution to Indic Wikimedia projects.
