Your submission at Articles for creation: Gerald Haythornthwaite (February 8)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by WikiDan61 was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Too many of the sources are not independent of Haythornwaite -- they're largely drawn from pages of the website of the charity his wife founded. While his wife appears notable enough, Gerald himself does not. Even the organisation's website notes Ethel as its founder, not Gerald (nor even Ethel and Gerald together).

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Gerald Haythornthwaite and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Son Gokū Magia! Your additions to Ethel Haythornthwaite 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. Please 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, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:05, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Diannaa: Hi, just reading this and have some quick questions...

What are the copyrighted images you are referring to? Or is this a generic guideline you posted? Thought I'd been good with the images I've used.

I can't find the content - Ethel Haythornthwaite: Trespass debate - that was removed to check what was written / posted. Can you signpost me to it? I thought I added multiple references such as MP's video and a copy of the transcript on the Parliament website.

Obviously, I understand the copyright issues in general and want to follow the Wikipedia guidelines - but can't see what was removed to fix any issues. New to all this so not sure what next steps are.

Can you at least post it here so I can review? If that is acceptable.

Please help. Son Gokū Magia (talk) 14:11, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Diannaa: Hi, I went through the version history to see if I could find anything I spotted that some of the removals seem to have messed up the page edits. So changes from this comment '(→‎Blue plaque: Removed links to Blake and post-nominals (see next edit for reasons)' haven't been restored.

Just reviewing everything after the initial section creation - the comment that starts with 'Added new section for trespassing debate that occurred in April 2021 - placeholder, will tidy and rewrite shortly, looking for more sources and the outcome of the debate'.

Don't have any offline versions.

Thanks. Son Gokū Magia (talk) 14:41, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The message I posted is a template, and while it mentions images, none were involved in your particular edit. The revisions containing the copyright material were hidden from view under under criterion RD1 of the revision deletion policy, and that's why you can't access them any more. The material I removed was a match for content found here. You can view the overlap by visiting the CopyPatrol report and clicking on the iThenticate link. — Diannaa (talk) 15:18, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Diannaa: Hi, thanks for the link - useful resource for the future. If I understand how that works it is based on an earlier snapshot content but not the latest / current edit, is that right?

Because I'm sure I changed it, re-wrote it. Not sure about the petition bit (don't quote me on that one) - can't remember if I changed that but I did find two other reliable sources which I believe I cited. Vaguely remember expanding some things so it wasn't copied. Even in my earlier edit summary I identified it needed rewriting.

Even the heading is totally different as I'm pretty sure I changed that to Trespass debate or something or other.

If I remember, the dates paragraph is from the other sources that Yorkshire Post used.

Basically, I'm not arguing - I'm really not - just want to reference what the last / current edit was including the additional references so I can review it and make additional changes. I don't have an offline copy to use.

Does that make sense? Thanks. Son Gokū Magia (talk) 16:39, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

On Wikipedia, we can't host copyright content, not even temporarily for editing. I will send you the removed material via email. — Diannaa (talk) 16:42, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Diannaa: Hi, thank you! Son Gokū Magia (talk) 16:44, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Diannaa: Got it, thank you. I thought I wrote more and changed some things - completely forgot about quoting Blake as well.

I'll work off this version and run each edit through that CopyPatrol report tool once I know how to added content onto there.

Thanks again. Son Gokū Magia (talk) 16:54, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Diannaa: Hi (sorry but just making sure I understand things properly)

I've rewritten that section again - Trespass debate - and published it.

Created an account on CopyPatrol and searched for that page to see if the latest content has come up. Nothing.

Does that mean it is okay? We are good?

Or does it take time before it is flagged again? I'm assuming the latter here because of what was originally flagged vs. the latest edit.

I want to make sure I am doing things right.

Thanks in advance. Son Gokū Magia (talk) 17:33, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The current version looks okay from a copyright point of view. — Diannaa (talk) 20:58, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Diannaa: Thanks for checking - I couldn't see it pop up on CopyPatrol either. Phew.

Have a good weekend. Son Gokū Magia (talk) 21:13, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
