Copyrights

[edit]

Your article on the Persistent Threat Detection System has several sentences that are copied verbatim from their sources. While it is important to use reliable sources to verify the content of our Wikipedia articles, we must take care not to violate those sources' copyrights. A single sentence, copied verbatim, could be considered such a copyright violation. Rather, you should try to write articles in your own words, using the sources to verify the information but not to provide the prose. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:45, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mirrors

[edit]

Information icon Thanks for contributing to the article Ominsense ‎. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Persistent Threat Detection System requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/news/features/history/ptds.html; https://www.army-technology.com/projects/persistent-threat-detection-system-us/ and https://www.army.mil/article/82551/army_accepts_last_persistent_threat_detection_system_aerostat. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Are you a paid editor with a conflict of interest?

[edit]
Information icon

Hello Rafreyna. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, and that 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:Rafreyna. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Rafreyna|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, please do not edit further until you answer this message.

[edit]

I can see that you are a new editor, but you need to know that Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously. You must not copy and paste text from sources you find on the web into articles as you did in the article FireFly Acoustic Threat Detection System. I have removed the infringing text, but the material you copied is subject to copyright, as is almost everything on the web, and when creating or expanding articles, you should completely rewrite the information from the source using your own words. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:43, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The same applies to OmniSense. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:02, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Rafreyna. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, OmniSense, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

  1. edit the page
  2. remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

An article you recently created, MRAP Armor Weight Reduction Spiral (MAWRS) Program, is just chunks of text copied from other sources without proper attribution. You need to write the information in your own words, or if the sources have compatible licenses, provide proper attribution. 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 is ready for mainspace, please follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:53, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion

[edit]

My thought has always been to get people to disclose that they are doing paid editing, with the disclosure being the most important thing. And then to figure that the disclosure alone will tend to make things go well, rather than the more stringent conditions promoted by many. And so thanks for disclosing that. I noticed that you have been doing an overwhelming amount of work; I just reverted one item. May I suggest slowing down a bit and being a bit more cautious? Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 01:50, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Detection of nerve agents

[edit]

When you make additions to articles, please try to achieve balance, rather than writing a press release promoting a piece of technology. Where you work should have a library giving information on all significant methods used to detect nerve agents that written about in unclassified literature. Which piece of kit to use to detect nerve agents also depends on whether you are detecting them in the atmosphere, or as a liquid on the ground. Any section on the detection of nerve agents needs to mention both.-- Toddy1 (talk) 15:02, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Rafreyna. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Please be sure to list all COI articles on your userpage, and to add the paid contributor tag to the talk pages of any articles with which you have a connection.

An article you recently created, Robotics Collaborative Technology Alliance, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. Currently, provided sources are either affiliated with the US military (not independent) or papers and patents ostensibly published thanks to the project's funding (not independent, not in depth coverage, arguably original research).
