Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Reddotparty, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to State-sponsored Internet propaganda have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of 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 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. (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 or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate 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. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:56, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Thank you @Diannaa for the information, I will compile and submit again, paraphrasing with reference to news source. Reddotparty (talk) 06:50, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

You need to start by asking the other user why he removed the content. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:10, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

Your edits to Vivian Balakrishnan

Dear Reddotparty, You seem to be a brand new editor created just two weeks ago, and are perhaps unaware of wikipedia policies and practices. Your edits contravened WP:NPOV, WP:UNDUE, WP:VD. The two incidents you cited are old settled matters. Your choice of works like 'blame' are also not appropriate. The articles you referred to say that he explained the reasons for getting the initial estimates of the budget wrong. Similarly, Facebook themselves that confirmed there was was bug in the technical systems. The overall pattern of your edits, not your name, suggests a political goal. Thanks.

--Mostestargue (talk) 03:10, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

While I can accept the reason of other users advised on my talk page and work with them. Your edit and bias views are not welcome, Wikipedia:Wikipuffery (He remains well known for his television performances in his early years.) You are just a solo fan to associate Vivian Balakrishnan as a 'well known' appearing as participant or guest in obscured defuncted TV shows? He is not close in league as 'well known' as Darryl David who was notable for show business prior to joining politic. To push your personal agenda, you even included link which does not even mention 'health matter' tv show. http://www.pmo.gov.sg/cabinet/dr-vivian-balakrishnan In your own words, 'won several nationally televised debates' when there was only a debate'84 with SBC the sole broadcaster in Singapore. Keep on white washing.

UPDATE: 29 MARCH 2017 Mostestargue is a sleeper account WP:SLEEPER which was last active in 2013 and suddenly came alive in 2017 with other puppet WP:PUPPET accounts to disrupt wikipedia by white washing his supported political party and falsely accusing and intimidating other user's edit. This was investigated and supported by 3 admins here after investigation.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

March 2017

Hello, I'm Lemongirl942. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Darryl David, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Remember that a reliable source is needed for your edits. If you do not have a reliable source, do not add the information. Lemongirl942 (talk) 04:59, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

updated with reference. --Reddotparty (talk) 05:33, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

Just a note that do not do this in future. This is called WP:EDITWARRING (and leads to most editors being blocked). When you have been reverted, you next edit is to either discuss or (in cases of fixable problems), fix all of them when restoring the edit. In this case, for example, your edit did not add references but actually removed a reference (see the NTU reference).

Your next edit added references (which I appreciate). But remember that social media are not considered reliable sources, so please do not use them as references. In addition, the original reference was not supposed to have been removed. I have restored it accordingly. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 05:43, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

I understand that you are trying to help. But your actions are not helping and to me, it appears to be WP:ADVOCACY editing. This is bordering on WP:OR and this is not good copyediting. I am not doubting your good faith, but you need to learn how stuff works here, particularly our policies of WP:NPOV, WP:BLP and WP:NOT. You will also realise that sometimes, the spirit of the policy or guideline is more important than the words itself. My suggestion to you would be to try editing some articles (maybe American politics), take part in talk page discussions and learn how guidelines/policies are applied in practice. If you have any queries, feel free to ask me or at the WP:TEAHOUSE. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 04:37, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on David Ong. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Lemongirl942 (talk) 13:43, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
