May 2021

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page The Sand Princess has been reverted.
Your edit here to The Sand Princess was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links in references which are discouraged per our reliable sources guideline. The reference(s) you added or changed (https://drama.fandom.com/wiki/The_Sand_Princess#:~:text=7%20References-,Synopsis,by%20acting%20as%20his%20servant) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 17:49, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Camille Vasquez has been accepted

Camille Vasquez, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Stub-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. It is commonplace for new articles to start out as stubs and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider .

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Nyrobie! Your additions to Camille Vasquez 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. Throast (talk | contribs) 19:36, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.Throast (talk | contribs) 20:55, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi Nyrobie, I wanted to leave you a message to explain why some of your recent contributions (such as to Camille Vasquez and Central Mindanao University) have been undone. I can understand that it is frustrating to see your hard work removed in a matter of seconds, so I thought I would give you some more information about why that's happened.

Most of the text that you'll find online is protected by copyright and isn't suitably licensed for use on Wikipedia. In other words, Wikipedia's copyright policy actually doesn't allow such text to be copied into Wikipedia. When editors find text that's been copied and pasted into Wikipedia from a copyrighted source, or even just closely paraphrased, we have no choice but to remove it.

How then should you proceed? I would encourage you to take another look at our copyright policies, which Throast has linked in their message above. But to summarize things as simply as I can, Wikipedia's copyright rule is basically that whatever you write on Wikipedia should be written in your own words. If you write text entirely in your own words, instead of copying from a copyrighted source, or changing just a couple of words here or there, then you can be confident that your work won't be removed for copyright reasons. Of course, you will still need to follow Wikipedia's other policies and guidelines (and I'd encourage you to read through those too; they're important stuff!) but this will help you make progress without running into text copyright issues in the future.

I know there are many Wikipedia policy documents, and they can be long and confusing, so please let me know by pinging me if you have any questions about how copyright works on Wikipedia, or how to summarize what you find online in your own words in a way that meets Wikipedia's content policies and guidelines. Happy to help. Thanks, /wiae /tlk 21:36, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Your edit to Central Mindanao University 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 information on how to contribute your work appropriately. For legal reasons, Wikipedia strictly cannot host copyrighted text or images from print media or digital platforms without an appropriate and verifiable license. Contributions infringing on copyright will be removed. 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. Really, you come back after two years and immediately start doing what you were warned against? On one of the same pages none the less. Please do not add more content until you make sure you understand what copyright is and how not to violate it. You WILL be blocked if you continue to add copyrighted content.
