November 2021

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Giles Coren has been reverted.
Your edit here to Giles Coren was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://twitter.com/DawnHFoster/status/921254146690469888?s=20, https://twitter.com/sazza_jay/status/1417536019952513026) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 13:23, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Giles Coren, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Please stop adding content to biographies of living people based on self-published content. Read WP:RS and learn what reliable sources are. Schazjmd (talk) 16:22, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Use the article talk page

Please stop trying to ramrod irrelevant content into the Giles Coren article. Your sources are inadequate. If you believe that the content needs to be added, please go to Talk:Giles Coren and get consensus from other editors. Schazjmd (talk) 16:35, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello FelicityWiki! Your additions to Dawn Foster 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. 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. Moneytrees🏝️^{Talk/CCI guide} 17:12, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Do not put external URLs in the body of articles. URLs can only be between ref tags or in an External links section. Schazjmd (talk) 18:07, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Housmans booksellers

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 Housmans booksellers requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://housmans.com/history/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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. --TheImaCow (talk) 17:57, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Housmans booksellers moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Housmans booksellers, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Anarchism

Hi FelicityWiki,

I saw your work on articles related to anarchism and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch our noticeboard for Wikipedia's coverage of anarchism, which is a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about content related to anarchism. Take a look for yourself!

And if you're looking for other juicy places to edit, consider expanding a stub, adopting a cleanup category, or participating in one of our current formal discussions.

Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Hope to see you around. czar 03:50, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

thank you so much! FelicityWiki (talk) 11:22, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

MfD nomination of Draft:Housmans booksellers

Draft:Housmans booksellers, a page which you created or substantially contributed to, has been nominated for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; you may participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Housmans booksellers and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Draft:Housmans booksellers during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Dylan620 (he/him · talk · edits) 03:03, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

I want to emphasize that this deletion proposal is not regarding the Housmans article, but instead for your first draft, which is now redundant to the article you created. Your work has been excellent so far; I hope you stick around. --Dylan620 (he/him · talk · edits) 03:04, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

Thank you so much! FelicityWiki (talk) 11:23, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Portland Hospital

Thanks for contributing to the article Portland Hospital. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see here for how to do inline referencing). If you need further help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse, or just ask me. Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 23:25, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks I will be able to do this tomorrow FelicityWiki (talk) 23:28, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Sorry, but I really do not think you can make allegations like this and leave them unsourced until tomorrow. Dormskirk (talk) 23:30, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

It’s all sourced I just have to move the sources to the ends of sentences and add further sources if needed but everything links to the newspapers. FelicityWiki (talk) 23:35, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

That's fine - in which case please add the sources now. These are very serious allegations. Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 23:38, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Done, cheers! FelicityWiki (talk) 23:48, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Good job! Many thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 23:50, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi - When you have finished please close up the text. Per WP:PARAGRAPH "One-sentence paragraphs are unusually emphatic, and should be used sparingly." Thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 00:07, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks unsure if I accidentally reversed this when resolving an edit conflict. Will amend. FelicityWiki (talk) 00:17, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Many thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 00:55, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Courtney Stodden

Hi. A belated WELCOME to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edits to Courtney Stodden, as we really appreciate your participation. However, two sections of your additions had to be reverted for the following reasons:

First, the paragraph you added regarding Stodden's eating disorder was not accompanied by a citation, as the other passages you added were. If you can always restore this passage, however, if it is accompanied by such a citation.

Second, the passage in which Stodden accuses Hutchison of grooming a 15-year-old requires a citation of a reliable, secondary source. Since the information comes from Stodden herself, and not from either law enforcement or journalism agencies generally regarded as reliable, neither of these requirements is satisfied. There are also general requirements governing the addition of controversial or contentious material to articles on living people.

That said, I believe the comments in which Stodden discusses the effects of her marriage to Hutchison are permissable. I not only retained that passage, but added some publication information that was missing in the citations (like the names of the authors), and also added a detail from the Newsweek article to a section futher up in the article.

If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 14:56, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Hey, that's super helpful. I appreciate it. Gonna look for some secondary sources or wait to see if reputable reporting picks up on the points raised in the primary source - and will keep the contentious material guidelines in mind. Thanks for the diligence on this. FelicityWiki (talk) 15:16, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Accelerated Christian Education into Carmel Christian School, Bristol. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 23:16, 5 September 2022 (UTC)

ah didn't realise, cheers! Appreciated FelicityWiki (talk) 10:07, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
