December 2017 edit

  Hello, I'm LouisAragon. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Lake Sevan, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. - LouisAragon (talk) 19:51, 19 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

February 2018 edit

  Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Economy of Armenia. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:17, 18 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Prime Minister/President residences in Armenia edit

Hi there, please enough with your unexplained edits. The residences were changed since April 2018, when the political structure of the nation was changed from a semi-presidential system to a parliamentary republic. Now I'm kindly asking you to stop your edit war.--Preacher lad (talk) 08:35, 3 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Preacher lad, right it was changed in April 2018. But it was changed again thereafter, effectively reverting to previous allocation. See e.g. https://news.am/eng/news/482314.html Darwwin (talk) 09:42, 3 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for October 31 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Demographics of Armenia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Assyrian language (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

VOA copyright edit

Darwwin, while I understand the importance of humanizing conflict, this is the specific problem you keep hitting:

"All text, audio and video material produced exclusively by the Voice of America is in the public domain. Credit for any use of VOA material should be given to voanews.com, Voice of America, or VOA. However, voanews.com content may also contain text, video, audio, images, graphics, and other copyrighted material that is licensed for use in VOA programming only.

There is no indication the mentioned image was published for VOA programming only. Hence there is no reason to assume it is the case. Darwwin (talk) 10:37, 20 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

What does that proove? it is just an indication of VOA authoring. Darwwin (talk) 12:17, 20 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
No, it's an indication of copyright. See the quote I posted above and Yan Boechat. Johncdraper (talk) 12:25, 20 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
My understanding is, they are co-authors and any of them can provide licensing. Otherwise, "VOA" would not be mentioned, as it is the case on other pictures. Darwwin (talk) 12:49, 20 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
I believe that is incorrect. My understanding is that copyright is assigned to VOA on a restricted basis. You might like to contact VOA directly yourself to check. Johncdraper (talk) 12:53, 20 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
