Tip of the day...

Lead Section Size

The lead section of a Wikipedia article is the section before the first heading. The table of contents, if displayed, generally appears between the lead section and the first subheading.

Rule of thumb: If a topic deserves a heading or subheading, then it deserves short mention in the lead.

The lead section should contain up to four paragraphs, depending on the length of the article, and should provide a preview of the main points the article will make, summarizing the primary reasons the subject matter is interesting or notable. The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, should be written in a clear and accessible style, should be carefully sourced like the rest of the text, and should encourage the reader to want to read more. The following table has some general guidelines for the length of the lead section:

< 15,000 characters	medium size	> 30,000 characters
one or two paragraphs	two or three paragraphs	three or four paragraphs

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello DImi The Online! Your additions to Flag of the Kingdom of Araucanía and Patagonia 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. 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.
We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
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 either 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.
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 described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

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) 12:58, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Flag and CoA of North Peru

Hi. I've recently noted your changes regarding the flag of North Peru. The flag and coat of arms used for North Peru remained unchanged, as seen in government publications [1][2] and the Peruvian real.[3] Therefore, a proposed emblem cannot be used to represent the state if there is a version actually in use. While I do appreciate the effort, I'll ask you to please undo your changes, as you yourself have admitted, you do not appear to have a source for this flag (excluding FOTW). Thanks. 180app (talk) 11:17, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for informing me, but i only created that flag after seeing a "north peru coat of arms" that did not fit with the flag originally used on the wikipedia page, i will undo my changes and thank you again. DImi The Online (talk) 18:27, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have accidentally linked the wrong flag, This is the flag i was saying was originally used DImi The Online (talk) 18:29, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Juan Manuel de Cañas moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Juan Manuel de Cañas, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Juan Manuel de Cañas (July 25)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Theroadislong was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

possibly notable but will require sources

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Juan Manuel de Cañas and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Alright so, there is a spanish article with the same name and no sources for many of the things written. The only things it does have sources for are (in my opinion) not as important (those being of the children of his son Manuel Antonio Cañas Avendaño he had with Ana Josefa Hidalgo Muñoz de la Trinidad). I attempted to translate that page into to English, but i was unaware of what i presume is a new requirement of being an experienced editor to be able to upload translations as articles, that only allows you to draft a translation if not experienced. Also in my translation i did not mention the descendants of Juan Manuel de Cañas, therefore there was no reason for me to source anything. I do not understand why the spanish article does not need any sources, but mine does. I hope this clears up everything and i am terribly sorry if i came of as rude, that was very much not my intention. DImi The Online (talk) 22:14, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

English Wikipedia has much stricter guidelines on inclusion, articles absolutely MUST be sourced. Theroadislong (talk) 22:20, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Malespín's War moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Malespín's War, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. I did this rather than removing the uncited material in the article, which I felt would be more disruptive. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask on my talk page. When you have the required sourcing (and every assertion needs a source), and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Malespín's War (January 10)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Turnagra was:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Article is looking really good, it just needs a few more citations in some places. I've gone through and added a citation needed tag in a few places to give some indication, but there are other areas where it could benefit from having a citation. There are also a couple places where you may want to reword things a bit, as it's borderline on whether it's encyclopedic enough. The one which stood out for me was talking about "the most humiliating aspect", which I'd stay away from unless it was a direct quote from someone - and if that was the case, then it should be cited as such. Fix those few things and I reckon you're good to go.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.
