Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Alnour.ebrahim! Your additions to A'Sharqiyah University 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. Wikishovel (talk) 05:17, 15 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest edit

  Hello, Alnour.ebrahim. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page A'Sharqiyah University, 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:

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. Wikishovel (talk) 05:53, 15 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I sincerely apologize for misunderstanding Wikipedia's editing policies. I created multiple accounts to publish an article about my institution, and I now understand that this violates the Wikipedia policy as sockpuppet. I take full responsibility for my actions and assure you that it was not my intention to manipulate information & will not gonna happened once again.

I have carefully reviewed the relevant policies and guidelines, including those on conflict of interest (COI) disclosure. I am committed to following them tightly in the future and using proper COI disclosure procedures when contributing content related to my institution.
I hope to become a positive contributor to Wikipedia by creating well sourced and informative content . Alnour.ebrahim (talk) 05:54, 6 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Most likely your only pathway forward is the standard offer process; six months with no edits under any account or IP as a show of good faith, then request unblock and tell us what edits you intend to make. You won't be unblocked to, in the near term, edit about your institution; if that is your only goal here, this is the end of the line. That isn't permanent, but we will need to see a significant edit history of edits in topics unrelated to your institution showing that you understand relevant policies and guidelines before permitting you to indirectly contribute about your institution. You may tell us what topics you will edit about after the standard offer process. 331dot (talk) 07:54, 6 May 2024 (UTC)Reply


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.
