  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Nelson Agholor. Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:07, 17 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

    • Hi, you recently marked a warning on my talk page for changing the content of Nelson Agholor without proper sourcing. I apologize for my mistake, I meant to add sourcing but I forgot. I realized my mistake and started editing the page again to add sourcing. However I couldn't do it because the page was extended-confirmed protected before I could publish my edits. This isn't a request to edit the page, I just wanted to let you know that I intended to add sourcing, and that I acknowledge my mistakes and will work to remember so properly source my content in the future. @Eagles247:NSNW (talk) 20:27, 17 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm FloorMadeOuttaFloor. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Vice (2018 film), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. FloorMadeOuttaFloor (Leave me a messageChanges I have made) 16:52, 1 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello NSNW! Your additions to Barry Sanders 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. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. 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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 23:58, 22 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
