Image copyright problem with Image:Abortedfetus.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Abortedfetus.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}
. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.
Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peter O. (Talk) 22:21, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Abortion. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Abortion, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Gwernol 22:23, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Welcome!
editWelcome!
Hello Zubar, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy, and have been reverted. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.
There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Luna Santin 22:29, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Abortion
editHi, I've reverted your edits to Abortion, not because I disagree with them, but because they violate our Neutral Point of View policy. That policy is absolutely non negotiable. It's unlikely that a newcomer could make a substantial change to an article on a controversial subject, and not meet with resistance. Believe me, the issue of having pictures of aborted babies (yes, I say "babies"; I don't believe they are "clumps of cells") has been discussed extensively. The consensus has always been not to have such pictures, because of the shock element. It's not inconceivable that the consensus could change at some stage, but it would have to be argued calmly and politely on the discussion page. Edits such as the ones you made to the discussion page will not advance your cause. Let me tell you, as a pro-life Christian who edits Wikipedia, that pro-life people can do a lot of good here. They can prevent pro-choice editors from violating the NPOV policy. But they can only do that if they are prepared to respect that policy themselves. If you continue the way you started, you may end up being blocked indefinitely. Please consider whether you really want to help by working for a neutral article or whether you want to insert anti-abortion comments which may be true, but which will be reverted within seconds and will lead to your account being blocked.

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page and make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. --ArmadilloFromHell 07:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. JoshuaZ 07:37, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
