Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Folkenette! Your additions to Draft:Alana Jelinek 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. All other images must be made available under a free and open license that allows commercial and derivative reuse to be used on Wikipedia.
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 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. — Diannaa (talk) 11:50, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Daniele Moyal-Sharrock moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Daniele Moyal-Sharrock, 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. DJRSD (talk) 14:50, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Wendy Wills

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 Wendy Wills 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://researchprofiles.herts.ac.uk/portal/en/persons/wendy-wills(4a9fafa2-1abf-49c3-a84c-4d5b47ffb3e7).html, https://arc-eoe.nihr.ac.uk/about-us/people/theme-leads/wendy-wills, and https://theconversation.com/profiles/wendy-wills-468001. 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.

What Spicy says (immediately below).

Draft:Shula Ramon

Regarding this edit, that resume-like quality is one of the reasons why your drafts aren't being accepted. You can remove that tag, sure, but the important point is that you realize that it was there for a reason. Good luck. Drmies (talk) 17:29, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm not entirely sure what you mean? I haven't deliberately removed any tag, and in fact, I'm not even finished writing the draft.

Clearly I'm not an expert at Wikipedia, and I'm only trying to help a small community group at the University of Hertfordshire increase the profile of women in academia by writing their pages. I'm trying my best to include their key achievements and career points to show their worth as a small article. I'm sorry if I have done anything against you but I am trying my hardest to make acceptable articles. Folkenette (talk) 17:36, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but you removed that tag in this edit. And I totally encourage writing for Wikipedia, but it's probably a good idea to know a bit more, not just about editing but also what such articles should look like. Because right now all those drafts look like resumes, like the kind of summary of one's career that's submitted to a Tenure and Promotion committee. (Phrases like "She employs participatory action research in order to carry out research that engages service users and other stakeholders, treat them as experts through experience, and attempt to empower them through inclusion" fit that description: that's hardly an objective and neutral description of someone's work.) The most important thing, however, is that you need secondary sources to verify various achievements and facts, and to establish notability--not primary ones. And looking at the Ramon draft, I should probably point you towards WP:CITE, because right now the reference section doesn't look very good: they're all bare URLs, lacking bibliographical information. For academics, if they don't pass via the WP:GNG (and typically magazine/news articles can help with that), they pass notability via WP:PROF (please look at the list of items), but those requirements also need to be met via secondary sources. The best thing to do is to throw the resume/website away, to look for sources, and to write an article starting with those sources. It can be done; I've done it dozens of times. Good luck.

Concern regarding Draft:Grace Lees-Maffei

Hello, Folkenette. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Grace Lees-Maffei, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.
