References in leads
[edit]Hi there - thanks for making this edit to Coxton Tower earlier. I dropped by because I wanted to explain why I've reverted it, just for your future reference.
As explained at WP:LEADCITE, citations are not required in the lead section of an article if the lead is summarising sourced information in the body of the article. (In practice, they're actually discouraged, to make the lead easier to read.) In this case, the assertion defining Coxton as a tower house in Moray is repeated in the first sentence of the 'description' section, and is cited to a very reliable source (a Pevsner guide), so it doesn't need to be supporting with any further refs; also, the ref you added (the Castles of Scotland website) is not really a reliable source. It's a great website, I personally find it interesting and well-written, but it's a blog - it's run by a single person with no editorial oversight - so we shouldn't use it, especially when better sources are available to support the content.
I hope that makes sense - seriously, thanks for taking an interest in the article and for trying to help out, I just wanted to explain to you why I undid your work. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 23:37, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
Title mismatch
[edit]Hello, [1] was not a PDF with the same title (maybe it had the title mentioned somewhere inside but that's not what we need). Nemo 14:48, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
An article you recently created, Nascenia, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. ... discospinster talk 15:01, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Kabuliwala, a 2006 Bengali film.jpg
[edit]
Thank you for uploading File:Kabuliwala, a 2006 Bengali film.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 12:57, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

One of your recent additions 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.
I warned you once already, here. DO NOT ADD LINKS to publications when those links can neither be traced to an author of the publication nor to the publisher of the publication. Someone else's class reading list is right out. You did it once on List of NP-complete problems and now you've done it again on Lloyd's algorithm. If you're using bot software (OABot), and you can't control it to not do this, then you need to not use it at all, or you will lose your editing privileges entirely. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:43, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- My apology. I missed your last message. Next time, I will be careful. Thanks for notifying. Marnie Hawes (talk) 06:49, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- And yet, you immediately did it again. I have blocked you from editing; you can be unblocked (by me or any other admin, which you can request by using {{unblock}} here) if you promise to stop using OABot or other bot software, only edit manually, and stop trying to add links to references. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:02, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:
I didn't do it intentionally and I won't use it anymore. Marnie Hawes (talk) 16:23, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
Decline reason:
I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that
- the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
- the block is no longer necessary because you
- understand what you have been blocked for,
- will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
- will make useful contributions instead.
Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Yamla (talk) 16:38, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
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.

Request reason:
I understood why my edit right is blocked. I won't add copyright content again and I won't use OAbot or any other bot tool without knowing how to use it appropriately. I promise to make productive contributions with manual editing instead of bot edit.
Accept reason:
Ok, you're unblocked for now. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:12, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

[edit]
Hello Marnie Hawes. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Marnie Hawes. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Marnie Hawes|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. You continue to edit as a stated paid editor without announcing who your client is, as is required. Nat Gertler (talk) 10:10, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- Hi! NatGertler, I found you very cooperative to correct me every time I made mistakes. I really appreciate your help and I am extremely sorry for my mistakes. One more thing, what I added today was some information about Roque's son Ricardo from an already added source(Orlando Weekly)on that article. I reused the reference for that piece of information. Another one, about the banks: I found it on Wikinews. I thought it was a reliable source. Believe me, I was waiting for your corrections. :) Thanks for supervising me.
- I hope an explanation will make it clear about my Paid contributions. I added that paid disclosure when I was supposed to get paid for an article. But unfortunately, that one was deleted. The client disagreed to pay for it. So, I didn't get any payment. I am willing to remove the paid disclosure because I am making contributions voluntarily since then. I am not involved in Black Hat or any strategies which can threaten my existence on Wikipedia. I made mistakes, I know that. But, I would like to learn from my mistakes.
- My edits on Roque De la Fuente are not paid. I became curious about Mr. De La Fuente after I heard about him from one of my Friend "Hafiz" living in Arizona. I was not familiar with that name before. His career made me curious about him. So, whenever I find something about him I check if that info is included on his page or not. My intention was not to promote him. My intention is to add more values to existing articles or creating articles on people or topics that meet the notability criteria of Wikipedia.
- One more thing, I was looking for adoption. Is there any opportunity to get adopted for any sort of voluntary work like adding sources or information on any Wikiproject? I would like to help. I am very much interested to work on film and biography related articles. Marnie Hawes (talk) 19:01, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- Even if your client didn't end up keeping their end of the bargain, your "I'm a paid editor" disclosure should include the identity of your client and what article you were editing for them (even if it doesn't now exist). Otherwise, you're saying "I'm a paid editor but I'm not telling you who for or where", and the default assumption is that any edit of yours is likely to be paid for - particularly if the edit seems a bit promotional. So please edit your user page to include that information.
- The problem with the statement about Rocky's son was not with the sourcing, or even with the fact that it was in the article - it was where in the article it was. You put it in the section on Rocky's 2020 presidential campaign, and there was no sign that Ricky's 2018 candidacy had any relevancy to that section. Had there been a section of "Personal life", which is normally where we list things like spouses and children, you could put it there. (I was editing on a tablet at the moment, which is an awkward editor for trying to add a section with.)
- Another edit that you did around the same time, which I have not yet tried to address, is deleting an online reference because that page was no longer on the Internet. While that is an understandable instinct, we actually have better ways to deal with that in most cases... when you take away a reference, it often leaves information unreferenced, and there are usually ways to get a copy of a missing webpage. See Wikipedia:Link rot for more information.
- I am not looking to adopt - really, at the moment, I'm looking for less responsibility in my life, not more! And I haven't really dealt with the adoption process. You might check out Wikipedia:Adopt-a-user/Adoptee's Area to see if that would help you on your quest. Meanwhile, I'm usually happy to answer the occasional question, if my sometimes-busy life permits. --Nat Gertler (talk) 20:34, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you for guiding me. I have added the information on my user page. Marnie Hawes (talk) 05:43, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
I have evidence (which can be obtained by a Google search) that you are being paid to edit Rocky de la Fuente page. Do you still want to maintain that you are editing out of "curiosity"? 2409:4071:2307:AB59:7616:FADE:92A0:80FF (talk) 09:41, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, it would be really graceful for me to get paid. I am doing a thorough research on him out of curiosity and editing his page to add more information into it. I will add paid contribution disclosure with client name If I get an opportunity to get paid for it. Marnie Hawes (talk) 18:53, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Apparent WP:COPYLINK violation at Disjoint-set data structure
[edit]Please do not add links to copyrighted journal articles when those links are not controlled by the author. Glrx (talk) 17:04, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Glrx, what do you mean by "controlled by the author"? Is that a term with copyright law significance? Nemo 17:27, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Nemo bis: The phrase has no significance under copyright law; it is a phrase used in some license grants. Most journal publishers allow their authors to publish the author's article on a website that the author controls. So Tarjan could put his paper on his own website or on his employer's website. Professors often supply copies of their journal articles on their university's website. The link in question is in the personal directory of a university website, but it is not the personal directory of one of the authors. Instead, it is a paper supplied for a course by a teacher; there is no license to publish. Glrx (talk) 02:06, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- Can you point to the text of such license grants? Thanks, Nemo 08:19, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Nemo bis:
- See the second paragraph of Copyright policies of academic publishers.
- For a specific example, see ACM Copyright Policy §2.5 bullet 4, which grants the author the right to "Post the Accepted Version of the Work on (1) the Author's home page, (2) the Owner's institutional repository, (3) any repository legally mandated by an agency funding the research on which the Work is based, and (4) any non-commercial repository or aggregation that does not duplicate ACM tables of contents, i.e., whose patterns of links do not substantially duplicate an ACM-copyrighted volume or issue." The right to post on a non-commercial repository is a less common grant. It is the author's right to post the work; the grant does not allow others to post the author's works on university websites or other repositories.

- I know the publishers' policies, thank you. No need to cherry-pick one publisher since I've read hundreds of them. I was asking for some legal text using your term "controlled by the author". Thank you, Nemo 19:15, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- Can you point to the text of such license grants? Thanks, Nemo 08:19, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Nemo bis: The phrase has no significance under copyright law; it is a phrase used in some license grants. Most journal publishers allow their authors to publish the author's article on a website that the author controls. So Tarjan could put his paper on his own website or on his employer's website. Professors often supply copies of their journal articles on their university's website. The link in question is in the personal directory of a university website, but it is not the personal directory of one of the authors. Instead, it is a paper supplied for a course by a teacher; there is no license to publish. Glrx (talk) 02:06, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions alert
[edit]
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
MelanieN (talk) 16:20, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
The specific restrictions on the 2016 United States presidential election article include:
- Limit of one revert in 24 hours: This article is under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period).
- 24-hr WP:BRD cycle: If a change you make to this article is reverted, you may not reinstate that change unless you discuss the issue on the talk page and wait 24 hours (from the time of the original edit). Partial reverts/reinstatements that reasonably address objections of other editors are preferable to wholesale reverts.
Now that you are aware of these restrictions, you can be blocked from editing or otherwise sanctioned if you violate them. -- MelanieN (talk) 16:24, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you User:MelanieN.I haven't reverted any change within 24 hrs and I last edited it on 27th October. Marnie Hawes (talk) 16:33, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
I wasn't suggesting that you had violated these restrictions, and you haven't, so that is good. This is a standard warning which we are supposed to give, in exactly the wording here, to people who edit articles that are subject to these restrictions. -- MelanieN (talk) 16:40, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
Guidelines for paid editors
[edit]You have disclosed your situation as a paid editor, as you should, so that is good. In addition to the restrictions on all editors, which I described above, you are also subject to the guidelines for paid editing. Those guidelines are summarized at WP:Conflict of interest. They are summarized as follows:
- Paid editing is further regulated by a community guideline, Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. This advises that those with a conflict of interest, including paid editors, are very strongly discouraged from directly editing affected articles, but should post content proposals on the talk pages of existing articles, and should put new articles through the articles for creation process, so they can be reviewed prior to being published.
What this says is that you should NOT post directly to the article in ways that benefit your employer. Instead, you should suggest your proposed edits on the talk page, and if they are accepted, someone else will add them to the article. If you do post something to the article and it is removed, you should not re-add it, but instead should argue for its inclusion on the talk page. -- MelanieN (talk) 16:38, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
- In addition to the note above, please come into compliance with WP:PAID. For example, you must provide a link on your userpage to any websites on which you advertise editing services. Best.--SamHolt6 (talk) 01:37, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
MelanieN, the editor does not seem to be following the above advice. This addition of refs might be technically OK, but it is certainly disregarding the advice above.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 13:04, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- That may be my fault, as on the talk page in the heat of other things I made a comment that could be reasonably seen as giving her permission for that edit, although the same could not be said of this edit and this, both of which were after the warning and before my discussion comment. --Nat Gertler (talk) 14:03, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- It is good to point these things out. I am not a big fan of the way the disclosure is hidden in the userboxes on the User page either.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 14:24, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Agreed, which is the reason I added the Paid Contributor notice to the only relevant page she's edited since she was pointed to the guidelines. However, I will note that this editor has been particularly problematic as a paid editor; at first she not only failed to disclose, she specifically denied being paid for editing that page. --Nat Gertler (talk) 14:46, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Paid disclosure in userbox
[edit]Hello! would you mind moving your paid disclosures out of the userbox area and into the main user page area? The way you have them placed now they are very hidden and defeat the purpose of openly declaring your paid editing.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 15:23, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
ANI notice
[edit]Hello, "Marnie Hawes". This is to notify you that I have filed a report about your editing at an administrators' noticeboard. The report is at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Paid editor not following COI guidelines. You are welcome to comment there if you wish. -- MelanieN (talk) 17:34, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Hi, MelanieN!
- Is using pseudonym forbidden in Wikipedia? If so, there are thousands of Wikipedia editors with pseudonym. Why are they hiding their identity? Is this really not practical to get any of your edits deleted if you are a new user? Is that a crime to make mistakes?
- May I know how did I violate paid contribution disclosure policy?
- Is paid editor a slang?
- What made you think I am male, I am from Pakistan?
- How do you know I have created Sajid Sadi, Rutger Hoedemaeker and Miftah Zaman or Nascenia Article for Money?
- Does creating a biography article means I am creating it in exchange of money?
- Isn't it possible to work as a volunteer on some specific task and later get some sources to get paid for what you were doing as a volunteer?
- Is that really logical to ignore some senior editors arrogance who denied a truth and support him?
- How did I added spam link? Isn't forbes a reliable source?
- How did you confirm that my sister is me and she is also male and from Pakistan?
- I do have personal life. I wasn't there when you started a discussion and made a decision to block me from editing. I really want to know why I am blocked from editing. I'll appreciate your help.Marnie Hawes (talk) 17:39, 17 November 2019 (UTC)
I was not the one who blocked you. That was done by administrator MER-C. They explain at the ANI discussion exactly why they did so. -- MelanieN (talk) 22:50, 17 November 2019 (UTC)
- MelanieN, I expected at least some of the answers from you, because you were the one who confirmed I and my sister are from Pakistan and we are male, felt My biography edits were all paid, you've analyzed my whole contribution history from the very beginning and reported me for violating paid contribution disclosure policy and COI.It seems you don't want to waste your valuable time as an admin to answer a blocked junior editor. Marnie Hawes (talk) 00:10, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- Pseudonyms are not illegal at Wikipedia. My mistake; I misremembered and said Pakistan instead of Bangladesh. As for saying you were probably male, when I know you claim to be female, that was just a guess based on my overall impression of you and your work here, and it was not part of the decision to block you. I researched and reported your past edits, and I concur with MER-C’s interpretation that the articles you created were likely paid. As for Tashdeed, that was obviously you under another name. -- MelanieN (talk) 00:27, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- @MelanieN: That wasn't obviously me under another name. Obviously I am not male. That was my little sister. Can I make mistake like you did to accuse or blame someone what they are really not? Do you have biography relates articles or some recreated or deleted articles in your contribution history? If you have, will those be a proof those were paid editing? May I know, what you guessed can become the reason to block me? Is this logical to delete someone's articles based on guess where that person might have invested huge amount of time and energy as a new Wikipedian? Marnie Hawes (talk) 00:46, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

- It says right below in the notice boxes why you are blocked from editing. It is also described at the ANI noticeboard. Out administrators do not really have time to walk you through it individually, answering ten (!) questions-- they have other things to do, basically. If you want to appeal your blocks, you can follow the instructions below. this is how it works here. You break the rules, you get blocked. But you can appeal per the process below. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 03:25, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- @ThatMontrealIP: I am following the process. It says, I can ask questions to administrator who blocked me and they are expected to answer.I was unable to take part into the discussion doesn't mean I can't ask questions right now. What's the point of criticizing me? I believe I deserve to know how did I break the policy. You are welcome to answer any of my question but I haven't given you any right to attack me personally. Marnie Hawes (talk) 03:57, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- You could have a look at WP:IDHT, it might be helpful. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 04:02, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- And WP:PAYTALK, which your conduct in this conversation violates. I am not here to read policies for you. The onus is on you to understand those policies, especially since you are paid to do so. Those policies are WP:PAID, WP:SOCK, WP:NOTPROMO and WP:COI. MER-C 11:18, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- Dear @MER-C:, I completely understand that, you are not here to read policies for me. I haven't violated any policy so you don't need to. You guessed and blocked me. Everything I posted was with references and truth from reliable sources. I added an update, @NatGertler: undid my revision,later he told me to update it myself. Then he accused, I made him rework. Really? I just used the same information Tampa Bay News Published. He said, the paper published misleading news and he also denied some government sits reference and some popular news references too. Someone argued with him on this, he continuously denied to accept the truth and asked him to complain about him. I added an update from Federal Election Commission. Then, @MelanieN: started with I violated COI policy and all these things ended up blocking my editing privilege. How did I violated policy? I haven't advertised or promoted anything. I haven't undid anyone's edit. And yes, I used talk page to discuss too! Any of my edits which were undid I didn't redo it. I didn't added any spam link in my knowledge. None of the articles you have deleted were paid articles. Everyone makes mistakes and learn from it. I didn't get paid for Josh Rimer too. I disclosed paid contributions where I expected to get paid or getting paid. How can you guys humiliate me saying I am male and I am from Pakistan? What was the point to add this into the discussion? The Tashdeed account is obviously my sister's account, not mine and I am not using that one. I have only one account and you've blocked my editing access according to your guess when I wasn't there.

Editing privileges terminated for blatant dishonesty, undisclosed paid editing, tendentious editing and failing to adhere to WP:COI
[edit]I have reviewed the ANI thread. It is also clear to me that you have deliberately not disclosed all instances where you have received financial compensation to edit. Therefore, I am terminating your editing privileges and imposing the maximum sanction possible:
The following sanction now applies to you:
Indefinite topic ban from all pages within the WP:ARBAP2 topic area
You have been sanctioned for the reasons outlined in the ANI thread.
This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at WP:ARBAP2 and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.
You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. MER-C 20:00, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page.
Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
To be served concurrently with:
{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. MER-C 20:00, 15 November 2019 (UTC)- Blocked Tashdeed as well. MER-C 20:19, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
