Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Pedro Calungsod, please cite a reliable source for your addition. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 16:01, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Pedro Calungsod. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 16:14, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Pedro Calungsod. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Elizium23 (talk) 07:19, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

The article Watchful Eyes Of A Silhouette blog has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 16:08, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft

Hi, I'm Wiae, and welcome to Wikipedia. Just to let you know that I've moved your draft to Draft:Dinagyang Festival 2011, as the Draft space is the preferred location for AfC submissions. Thanks, and let me know on my talk page if you have any questions or concerns! /wiae ★ /tlk 04:12, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Dinagyang Festival 2011 (January 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Dinagyang Festival 2011 and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Disambiguation link notification for March 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Philippines national football team, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ilonggo. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:48, 18 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Bootsguy, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Philippine Bar Examination 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. It's okay to copy the lists, but not the prose. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:05, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Binibining Pilipinas 2016 into Binibining Pilipinas 2017. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 23:57, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

March 2017

Your addition to Alimodian, Iloilo has been removed, 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 violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. This is your final warning. Further copyright violations will result in you being blocked from editing. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:46, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without evidence of permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted.

Please take this opportunity to ensure that you understand our copyright policy and our policies regarding how to use non-free content. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:26, 30 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have blocked your account, because in spite of repeated warnings, you continued to add copyright material to this wiki in violation of our copyright policy and copyright law. You cannot resume editing until you provide a clear statement that demonstrates that you have read and understand our copyright policy and intend to follow it in the future. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:30, 30 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I got wrongly banned and suspended by (talk) for copyrights violation policy for taking down the part which she think is copyrighted material. Actually the texts she removed from the page which subsequently made me suspended was actually taken from my own blog and I just modify it to simply and make it concise and comprehensible. The text was taken from my own blog which I myself wrote and improve it for this page for the benefits of many people. Bootsguy (talk) 06:03, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You need to provide evidence of permission. You can do so by modifying the source to indicate that you release the content under the CC BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL, and then showing the source when adding the content. You are very welcome to ask for help if you aren't sure how to go about doing this. Yamla (talk) 13:55, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

How do I do that? I don't know how to modify source indicating the release of the contents to prove my evidence of permission. How do I do that so I can immediately release permission and to prove that I own the content and to prove I was wrongly suspended by someone who who doesn't know what she's doing, stalks me and harboring hate and anger on me and obsessed in suspending accounts.

There's two ways to prove you are the copyright holder of the source blog, as detailed at WP:Donating copyrighted materials. The first way is to add a compatible license to each page of the blog that you wish to use as a source. The other way is to prove ownership of the blog by sending an email to the OTRS team from an email address associated with the source webpage. There's detailed instructions at for both of these methods at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials#Granting us permission to copy material already online. There's a sample permission email at WP:Consent. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 00:34, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I will study this first on how to grant permission from my blog to be used on other third party site like this one so I can unblock myself.

Well I am excited to grant permission on my work on my blog and to get back to work on this.

The {{OTRS pending}} tag needs to be placed on the article in question, not on your talk page. --B (talk) 15:22, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

how can I do that since I could not save the page in question whatever I put in it?
