Possible copyright infringement on "Kallana" edit

  Hello Dijo Thomas Scientist! One of your edits to Kallana has been removed because it appears 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. 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.
  • 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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Thank You for the message.
Sorry if I did a Copyright Violation. I am New to the game.
👉 To be Frank, I didn't feel that matter as a Copyrighted information, as it is a Accepted Scientific knowledge, not belonging to any particular individual.
Though I admit to have copied the already known Scientific Information, from a third party Article, inorder to save time for typing.
I am learning how Wikipedia Editing works.
And I have to Thank You for letting me know the mistake I made. ❤️
Please correct me in future also.

I have edited the article with relevant information. please check.
Thank You. Dijo Thomas Scientist (talk) 20:55, 19 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
I appreciate your candor!
The important thing to know is that it's not the ideas that are copyrighted, but the expression, i.e. the words and phrasing used. So you could add that content back if you rewrote it in your own words (but not a close paraphrase), or if you quoted the text along with an inline citation. Plus, where there's already a reference to that source on the page, you could use a named reference.
Regarding your newest addition, I'm not a biologist so I can't really assess it myself, but your definition of "dwarf" seems to conflict with dwarf elephant, insular dwarfism, and phyletic dwarfism. Also, it's uncited, which means it could be challenged and removed.

W.andrea (talk) 21:24, 19 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
Thank You for clarifying on copyright.
Regarding Dwarfism, you are right in your observation that there could be some confusion in the way it is used.
👉 And it was exactly that I was trying to clarify.
What I meant was that the term Pygmy is more accurate and specific than the term of Dwarf, for Kallana.
For example, you can say you have a Dwarf person living near your house in Canada, but it is Not correct if you substitute that term with Pygmy.
Pygmies denotes not only a Dwarf, but more importantly a "Race of Dwarfs".
Same here.
I am a Researcher myself, and though Kallana is not my primary Research subject, i have done some research on the subject, in the field, in Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
( My main Discoveries are 🐅 Neelagiri Kaduva [Neelagiri Tiger], 🦘 Raktha Athika and 🦘 Chupacabra.

👉 I have also , stayed for one week in Kottor Elephant Training Camp for one week, in Trivandrum, by the request of Top Forest Department Officials, in January 2014, among others, to Find out whether a Reported " Kallana " was obtained there.
👉 After 1 week of interaction with it , I found that it was NOT a Kallana, but an Elephas maximus indicus.
I reported that back to the CWW and PCCF of Kerala Forest Department.
Thank You once again.

Do not use Wikipedia for self-promotion edit

  This is your user talk page; the purpose of this page is for notification and communication with other Wikipedia editors. It is not for self-promotion. I have reverted your revision 1045485437. If you'd like to add material about yourself that's relevant to Wikipedia, you can use your user page. For guidelines, see Wikipedia:User pages. Thank you.
W.andrea (talk) 15:50, 21 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

❌ I have NOT used Wikipedia ( User Talk) for Self Promotion. Absolutely NOT.
I presume that you are taking about the Brief BIODATA that I added in User Talk Page.
⛔ That was added Purposefully, 👉 and with a VALID REASON.
👉 1. ln fact, the Very Queries that you Raised about the "Dwarfism", made me feel the Need to ADD about " What I am Doing in Real Life ; and My Expertise, so that Other Editors can Better Understand, my Expertise, and the Reason for My Edits that I do.
👉 I thought that It would Save a lot of Time, in Communication, with Editors for the basic things.
⛔ 2. I am a Researcher and Scientist ; and Subject Expert in Wildlife Science, with DEEP STUDY about certain Important Species, with Unique and Important Discoveries.
⛔ 3. My Expertise Regarding Wildlife Science and Environmental Science is in FRONTIER SCIENCE, 👉 meaning there WON'T be much Experts in the Subjects that I handle.
👉 It's here that I can Contribute to Wikipedia best.
............................................................................................
👉 One Problem :
The Brief BIODATA that I have added is a Standard one.
But after I had added it, I saw that " Please Subscribe to YouTube My Channels" was inadvertently added (as it was an already prepared format), and I wanted to remove it.
But there was no Option for Editing the Already added information, in the Wikipedia App.
That's the Reason Why that particular information is still there.
👉 I think Wikipedia Technical Support should add the Edit option for User Talk.
Thank You.
Dijo Thomas Scientist (talk) 23:02, 21 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
Yes, it was the "please subscribe" part that constitutes self promotion, but also, your user talk page is the wrong place to put biodata. You can put it on your user page instead. See Wikipedia:User pages. If you want a basic example, check out my user page.
And you're right, the Wikipedia Android app doesn't have an option for editing user talk pages. That's annoying! The only way I found to do it on mobile is:
  1. Open the page in a browser (but first you might need to clear the Wikipedia app "Open by default" to avoid it taking over from the browser)
  2. Tap Read as wiki page at the bottom
  3. Then you can edit sections.

Dijo Thomas Scientist (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

👉 In future, I will ensure that I will Not edit an article where Conflict Of Interest can arise, or which are Directly Related to My Own Research or Discovery.

........................................................................
Two issues were raised by Vanjagenije :
1. The Conflict Of Interest
I agree that there was a Conflict of Interest in my Edits; Eventhough it was done in good faith, and the matter added was absolutely truthful, and it pertains to Very Important Scientific Discoveries, and the News of which came Repeatedly in Mainstream Media.
(🔴 It is also Important, to Understand that, the Only Person in the World to have Discovered and Scientifically Proved a Chupacabra is Myself ! Therefore, that Details should have been in Wikipedia long back.)
........................................................................
2. Notability
With all due respect, I Disagree on this point.
I request Other Neutral Wikipedia ADMINS to discuss and decide whether Notability Guidelines are met.
A. Whether a New Discovery, which is as big as a Wolf, and Scientifically Proven, is Notable enough.
B. Whether a Species about which lots of Media Reports have come, that too as SPECIAL REPORTS, is Notable enough.
You can see the Media Reports in the following link :
https://dijothomas.wordpress.com/2022/12/13/a-few-of-the-media-reports-in-the-mainstream-news-papers-in-india-about-the-discovery-of-chupacabra-in-india-%e2%9e%96-by-scientist-and-conservation-biologist-dijo-thomas/
........................................................................
C. Vanjagenije says  : "You were even using yourself as a source."
I think Vanjagenije misunderstood the situation. I have given the Pictures of the News Paper Reports that came in the Main News Papers in India, about Neelagiri Tiger and Indian Chupacabra.
👉 I think, due to the fact that, Most of those Media Reports are in Indian Languages, Vanjagenije was Not able to read it!
🟢 I was Not using myself as a Source, but I was referring to those Media Reports as a Source !
Reference  : Above Link.

Decline reason:

We don't get to write about ourselves on Wikipedia. We don't get to publish original research on Wikipedia. If other scholarly sources reference and support your findings, a place might be made for them in Wikipedia. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 23:55, 21 December 2022 (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.

You were using Wikipedia to tell the world about your own "discovery" ([1]). You were even using yourself as a source. That kind of editing is unacceptable here. Wikipedia does not allow self-promotion. Wikipedia does not allow WP:original research. Wikipedia only allows informationa based on WP:reliable sources.
