This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Japanese gazelle, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Viampira (talk) 12:07, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

One of your recent additions has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information.

It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote—in order to influence Japanese gazelle. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Thank you.

• I don't understand what do you mean by canvassing? I'm an amateur biologist from Japan and have been studying prehistoric animals of Japan, but had never heard of this species before. So I searched online and never found any information that this species was found in Japan, but instead in Africa. Please explain, WHERE did I ever vandal???? OHSRW (talk) 12:15, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

OHSRW, you have not been vandalising, on the contrary, your additions to Japanese gazelle are improvements. The editor who warned you appears to be young, eager, and not quite aware of Wikipedia policies. --bonadea contributions talk 12:19, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

Bonadea, thank you so much for your helps!! I was actually very confused, even my discussion on the talk page of the species was deleted and furthermore, although restored, my account was even blocked temporary. Thanks so much again! OHSRW (talk) 12:24, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
