Falsely licensed images

Inserting other people's work into Wikipedia without permission or attribution is unacceptable. Copyright infringement and plagiarism pose serious moral, legal, and reputation problems. Remember: Users who upload content (File:Marci Liroff.jpeg) with false license declarations ... may be blocked. feydey (talk) 16:01, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:"Marci Liroff.jpg".jpg

Thank you for uploading File:"Marci Liroff.jpg".jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Stefan2 (talk) 19:14, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:"Marci Liroff.jpg".jpg

Thanks for uploading File:"Marci Liroff.jpg".jpg, which you've sourced to Conrad Allan. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 19:14, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

February 2021

Your edit to Marci Liroff 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. — Diannaa (talk) 14:55, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Selsid. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Marci Liroff, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest 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, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
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 are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 20:37, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Selsid. In addition to the information Diannaa left above, you might also want to take a look at Wikipedia:Ownership of content and Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons#Relationship between the subject, the article, and Wikipedia for additional reference. Wikipedia has a process where the subjects of articles (particularly when the subject is a living person) can seek assistance from the Wikipedia community regarding any concerns they may have about what's written about them on Wikipedia; however, it's important for the subjects of Wikipedia articles to understand that a Wikipedia article is written about a subject, not for a subject or on behalf of a subject, and that the subjects of articles have no final editorial control over what's written in the article. Article content (positive or negative) will be assessed on whether it meets relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines and any any disagreements over this will be resolved per Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. So, if you have concerns about what's written about you in Marci Liroff, then the thing for you to do would be to follow the suggestions given above or given at Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide#Steps for engagement and seek assistance from others. Except it certain specific cases (like some of the things mentioned here), you shouldn't really be directly editing or creating content about yourself found in any Wikipedia articles. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:37, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your user page

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your user page may not meet Wikipedia's user page guideline because user pages that look like articles may be subject for speedy deletion as explained here. If you believe that your user page does not violate our guideline, please leave a note on this page. Alternatively, you may add {{Db-u1}} to the top of the page in question and an administrator will delete it, or you can simply edit the page so that it meets Wikipedia's user page guideline. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:49, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Selsid. Your user page appears to be in violation of Wikipedia:User pages#User pages that look like articles and Wikipedia:User pages#What may I not have in my user pages? which means that it may be tagged for speedy deletion if you don't take steps to bring it more in line with Wikipedia:User pages#What may I have in my user pages?. Since your user page hasn't been since 2010, I'm assuming you were using it to work on a draft or changes for the article Marci Liroff, and that was OK; however, your user page is really not the best place to do that. If the content on your user page is no longer needed, I suggest you blank the page by clicking on the "Edit" button at top of the page and removing all of the content. If you still want to retain the content, I suggest you WP:MOVE it to another page in your username space as explained here. If you've got any questions about this, feel free to ask them below. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:07, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have blanked the page.— Diannaa (talk) 13:56, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
