(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.

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.

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) 14:48, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Diannaa having worked for an organisation Design Artists Copyright Society that is responsible for the copyright of artists I am very aware of issues of rights and therefore confused to what you might be referring? There are no quotations in this text. I have included links to PDFs which are readily available online which contain essays I have written, Networks of Care, Artists Rethinking the blockchain and Wrik Mead Draw the line. If external links to PDFs are not permitted I could remove those? Thanks 13strand (talk) 08:51, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
