Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]Hello BQUB16-Gjimenez, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0074881 has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
- 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 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 designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk 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 can, but please follow the steps in 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. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:37, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm CAPTAIN RAJU. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to E-SCREEN— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. CAPTAIN RAJU (✉) 20:29, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
It is worthwhile to remember that
- a) Wikipedia is a general encyclopedia, aimed at a mainstream audience, not a scientific publication
- b) Wikipedia has a Manual of Style.

Leave it alone please
[edit]Please leave your post in place on my talk page. It remains in the page history regardless of what you do, so it's pointless to remove it. Thank you, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:43, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
Hi BQUB16-Gjimenez. Please do not remove your posts from another editor's talk page if they have already been responded to because it can make it difficult for others to follow what is being discussed. If you wish to delete your post or edit a part of it, please follow the instructions in WP:REDACT. If you wish to remove content from your user talk page, then please refer to WP:REMOVED. You should not, however, really be removing content from another user's talk page unless you are doing so to remove prohibited content or harmful posts. It's also not very wise to be engaging in edit warring on the talk page of an administrator, especially one who has been in wiki-contact with your instructor RodriguezAllue. Not only is doing such a thing likely going to lead to your account being blocked from editing, but it's also might get you in trouble at school. The Wikipedia community is happy that have young people such as yourself contribute to helping build it as an encyclopedia and it understands that new editors will make mistakes; however, it has a pretty low tolerance for disruption and will take action to prevent things from getting out of hand. Please try to keep that in mind when you edit. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:11, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
- Marchjuly Diannaa I only want to avoid any misunderstanding between us, so I prefer to remove the comments. Thank you for your advice, I will take it into account.
- I can understand that, but the best way to avoid any misunderstandings between you and other editors is simply to make an additional post saying so. Removing a post the way you did does not, as Diannaa explained above, remove the post from the page's edit history, and can only create problems with other editors. If you want to "take back" some of the things you posted after they have been responded to, the best thing to do is strike them out like
thisas explained in WP:REDACT. It's OK to correct you're mistakes as long as you explain why in your edit sum or in another post. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:40, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
