Wikipedia and copyright

Hello WorldbuildingArtists! Your additions to Draft:Keiken 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, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

• Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
• Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
• Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's eligibility.
• Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. For translation, see Help:Translation § License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:56, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello! What passage are you referring to? Is it the quote by Hana Omori under "practice"? WorldbuildingArtists (talk) 14:00, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Content appeared to be copied from three sites: https://amosrex.fi/en/collections/keiken https://www.kanazawa21.jp/data_list.php?g=81&d=221 and https://presentfutures.org/feel-my-metaverse/ - UtherSRG (talk) 14:13, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

I see... So you are referring to the whole content of the article? Generally, artists provide specific copy that they write, to all museums & galleries they work with, and that's why all the websites online use the same language about all artists pretty much, and that's why the language is repeated here. That being said, I am happy to paraphrase. How can I do it though, if the article is still under review and not yet declined? WorldbuildingArtists (talk) 14:18, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

You can always edit after submitting it to review. - UtherSRG (talk) 16:14, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

You can continue to improve the draft while waiting for a reviewer. The notice says "This may take 4 months or more, since drafts are reviewed in no specific order. There are 2,940 pending submissions waiting for review." So go ahead and work on it in the meantime if you like. — Diannaa (talk) 22:09, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Keiken

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 Draft:Keiken 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://amosrex.fi/en/collections/keiken/, https://helsinkibiennaali.fi/en/artist/keiken/, and https://channel.somersethouse.org.uk/editorial-essay/how-do-you-understand-beyond-the-human. 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.

Hello again!Is this a new tag for the article to be speedily deleted? It doesn't have any copyright infringement at all though; it's all written fully by me, based on what I know about the artists and the sources online. WorldbuildingArtists (talk) 11:30, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

I have again removed some copyright content copied from https://amosrex.fi/en/collections/keiken/. This is the same content that I removed yesterday. I then removed the speedy deletion tag. Please don't copy prose that has been previously published elsewhere. To do so is a violation of our copyright policy. — Diannaa (talk) 12:03, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

@Diannaa: I'm still seeing quite a bit of copyvio from various websites. The fact that pieces parts are coming from various websites and not just one was the reason I had tagged for G12. Better to start fresh. - UtherSRG (talk) 15:40, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

I've done a little more cleanup. If you wish to get a second opinion, please consult one of the people listed here. — Diannaa (talk) 18:54, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, Diannaa. I bow to your expertise. - UtherSRG (talk) 20:06, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello! I am looking at the copyvio detector, and if you compare the texts in question the information/copy that repeats itself is: the names of the artist and the translation of their name from Japanese to English, the university they all went to, the names of their artworks, and a direct quote by one of them that has been attributed to her. How can we change their names and the names of their artworks? I mean, there's no way to paraphrase those. What do you recommend? WorldbuildingArtists (talk) 19:11, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Copyright cleanup is complete. Everything is fixed now. — Diannaa (talk) 22:52, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
