Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Shikari (2016 film)Shikari (2016 film). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Shikari (2016 film). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Shikari (2016 film) – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. GABgab 22:17, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Shikari (2016 film), but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Mar11 (talk) 18:57, 26 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making nonconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Sadia Jahan Prova with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. –Gladamastalk 22:37, 26 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

 

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Sadia Jahan Prova, you may be blocked from editing.

  Hello Sharif The Tiger, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Ostitto (2016 film) 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 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) 20:52, 7 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. I will try to follow this. But I've a problem that you can help to solve. How can I add a photo in a wikipedia page? Is this necessary to write the link of the picture? Sharif The Tiger (talk) 01:41, 27 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

For this. You added Shikari to the list of highest-grossing Bengali films, claiming Rs. 17 crore, based on this reference, but the reference says nothing about Shikari. Your edit is indistinguishable from vandalism. When you are ready to discuss, feel free to do so below. The next block will be indefinite. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:38, 10 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for File:Nirab & --Kavita Radheshyam-Kavita-- at the audio release of --Sheitaan--.jpeg

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Nirab & --Kavita Radheshyam-Kavita-- at the audio release of --Sheitaan--.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 11:30, 1 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Blogs as references

edit

Hi there, re: these changes, blogs are not suitable as references, because anyone with an internet connection can start a blog and print whatever they want. We're only interested in what reliable published sources with established reputations for fact-checking and accuracy have to say about anything. Other examples of insufficient user-generated sources are discussion forums, unverified Twitter accounts, IMDb, Wikia, and even Wikipedia itself.

It's also worth pointing out that the source you used was printed on 24 October 2016, and the 24 October 2016 version of the Wikipedia article contains identical values, even the phrasing "The Bengali language film industry is centered in the Tollygunge neighborhood of the city of Kolkata," and "a 2014 report stated that while there were about 100 films created in Tollywood every year" are found both in our article and in the blog post. This means that the Wikipedia article existed first, and that blog merely scraped (stole) the content from Wikipedia without attribution. So, even if it weren't a blog, it would be a "circular reference" because we would be using Wikipedia data as a source in Wikipedia. Please stick to mainstream sites like legitimate Indian news sites. Thank you, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:51, 1 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
