  Hello Wikinerd881! Your additions to Lyceum of Alabang 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. Mike1901 (talk) 05:33, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Zenaida Angping

edit
 

The article Zenaida Angping has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Osarius 10:34, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Rishi Sunak

edit

Hi, I am not sure if you are aware, but in Britain, the Prime Minister must be appointed by the monarch (in this case the King) before they are Prime Minister. It is not automatic based on leading the largest party.


Therefore, please stop editing Rishi Sunak's page with this incorrect information. MBihun (talk) 13:38, 24 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

 

The article List of Vice Presidents of the Philippines by Education has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:NOTDIRECTORY, a cross-categorization of two largely independent characteristics, in a list which gives very little info on their education anyway.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Nomination of List of Vice Presidents of the Philippines by Education for deletion

edit
 
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of Vice Presidents of the Philippines by Education is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Jam Agarao. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 16:26, 25 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

 

Your recent editing history at Jam Agarao shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Toddst1 (talk) 01:27, 26 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory, personal info or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Jam Agarao. WP:DOB is one of the more serious areas of WP:BLP. Toddst1 (talk) 01:29, 26 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for persistently making disruptive edits. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Ad Orientem (talk) 02:48, 26 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Article for Deletion: Lyceum of Alabang

edit

Hey, I moved your comment so that it falls under the main thread in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lyceum of Alabang. Please make use of the "reply" button next time! I've also added an explanation of Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Nintendo2000 (talk) 03:39, 1 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

What’s the strongest source or link you need so that It won’t be deleted? Wikinerd881 (talk) 11:52, 1 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

I don't think such a source exists, which is why I nominated it for deletion in the first place. Nintendo2000 (talk) 12:02, 1 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Here’s a link that I can provide that shows a student from Lyceum of Alabang being given incentives as a Magna Cum Laude student which are Vincent Julius Benavidez and Rodellyn Viara Llyod Marquez, http://metronewscentral.net/muntinlupa/metro-cities/muntinlupa-scholars-receive-incentives Wikinerd881 (talk) 12:30, 1 February 2023‎ (UTC)Reply

This doesn't actually discuss the school itself, let alone establish its notability. It's really important that you take the time to read and understand Wikipedia's notability guidelines on organizations — I've cited this many, many times now.
"An organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability. All content must be verifiable. If no independent, third-party, reliable sources can be found on a topic, then Wikipedia should not have an article on it."

  Your edit to Charles III has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information.
