Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Andreeatalos1990, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Katihar Engineering College 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. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) 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.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • 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 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.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • 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 in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

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. — Diannaa (talk) 15:40, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Nikki Hunt edit

 

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 Nikki Hunt, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

If you post an article it will be assessed as it stands. If you don't want that to happen, you should write it as a draft. You have an obvious conflict of interest with regard to this person, even if you are not her, and you must declare it, specifying what your relationship with her is. If you work directly or indirectly for her or her organisation, or otherwise are acting on her behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. If you are paid directly or indirectly, 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:Andreeatalos1990. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Andreeatalos1990|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message. I deleted your article because

  • it did not provide adequate independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that she meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the subject or her company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what she or her company claims or interviewing her. It's clear that several of your refs are affiliated to her, interviews, press releases or promo.
  • Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls. Although you put references in line, the speedy deletion nominator Vexations said early life; source only vaguely confirms move to Singapore "Twenty years ago"... Interior and Architectural Design: failed verification... failed verification, looks like the sources have been randomly added to what the editor decided to write prior to reading them, to which I can only agree
  • it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. You refer to her throughout as "Nikki", which is unencycopaedic, and examples of unsourced or self-sourced claims presented as fact include: acclaimed... best known for her pioneering approach... Nikki's projects have been hailed amongst the best in the Asia-Pacific region and her multi-award-winning design studio, Design Intervention has consistently been named as one of the world's top 100 Interior Design Studio in the Andrew Martin International Design Review, a prestigious compendium - considered the Oscars of the interior design industry[by whom?}... is recognized as one of the leading residential design studios in the region[failed verification]... The studio has won awards and accolades, at the national, regional, and global levels, across the full spectrum of the design field including the public sector, retail, leisure, architecture, office, product, and residential design.[non-primary source needed], and so on, relentlessly promotional language and unsourced or unverifiable claims
  • there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. That's particularly the case when they are spamlinks to affiliated sites. External links should have only the main website, not social media or similar

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. You must also reply to the COI request above Jimfbleak - talk to me? 11:07, 29 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

In my first paragraph above, I said to post your COI on your user page, User:Andreeatalos1990 in the form: {{paid|user=Andreeatalos1990|employer=|client=}}. Fill in your employer or client, which ever is relevant, copy to your user page (without the nowiki tags) and save Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:22, 30 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Nikki Hunt edit

 

Hello, Andreeatalos1990. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Nikki Hunt".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
