Wikipedia and copyright

Latest comment: 3 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hello Omorodion1, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Samuel Adegboyega University 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. Moneytrees🌴^{Talk🌲Help out at CCI!} 15:51, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for the enlightenment. I will try to be more careful in my subsequent editing. Omorodion1 (talk) 06:40, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

External links

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello, I'm Arjayay. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of Ernest Ndukwe. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 11:18, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigation

Latest comment: 3 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Omorodion1, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Hi, Omorodion1. Please disregard the message above, which misidentified your edits as potentially disruptive. I sincerely apologize for this error, and please rest assured that there has been no negative finding against you above. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me on my talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for May 26

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited K. O. Mbadiwe, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Columbia (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.)

Thanks for contributing to the article T. M. Aluko. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. Kuru (talk) 12:21, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Again here, "Source(s): Wikipedia Honours (Creative Commons)." Please be more careful when evaluating sources; anything that sources Wikipedia is not acceptable. Kuru (talk) 13:21, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Latest comment: 1 year ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Hello, Omorodion1

Thank you for creating National Commission for Refugees, Migrants, and Internally Displaced Persons.

User:North8000, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Good start. You might consider adding "(Nigeria)" to the title. Happy editing!

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|North8000}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

North8000 (talk) 17:04, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

@North8000, thank you for your review. Please how do I make the modification to the title seeing that I have already created the article. My thinking is that only admins can adjust the title of an article. I look forward to your guidance. Regards. Omorodion1 (talk) 07:26, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

I'd be happy to do it for you but perhaps it would be more fun to do it yourself. You do it by "moving" the article. Go to the article and then under the "more" tab select "move" and then follow the directions there. Happy editing! North8000 (talk) 13:00, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
