Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "TeamZissouIntern", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it's the name of a collective. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why.

- @Kleuske: I can't speak for this user, but as far as I know their username is a reference to a film, and not an indication of an actual job title. Ibadibam (talk) 23:14, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
- @Kleuske: Hi, its a reference to a Wes Anderson film, where a much-suffering interns are failed (do not receive university credit) by Steve Zissou for not willing to risk their lives. It's a comedy. I hope that's fine. TeamZissouIntern (talk) 11:58, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
Stub tagging
editThanks for your edit to boutique airline. Please see WP:TAGSTUB for instructions on the correct way to tag an article as a stub, and my subsequent edit to the article for an example. Ibadibam (talk) 23:12, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
- @Ibadibam: Thanks for that, might have gotten a bit overeager. TeamZissouIntern (talk) 11:58, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
Date formats
editHi, I have partially reverted some of your edits today. Day first dates do not have a comma in the middle after the month i.e. 2 March 2020 and not 2 March, 2020. See MOS:BADDATE for valid date formats. Keith D (talk) 20:13, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for March 14
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Vision Capital, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page New York (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Wikipedia and copyright
edit
Hello TeamZissouIntern, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Firstpex 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. (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 the 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 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 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.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also 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) 17:43, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
