Your submission at Articles for creation: American Association for Sex Addiction Therapy (September 11)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Newslinger was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Unfortunately, the American Association for Sex Addiction Therapy doesn't meet Wikipedia's notability criteria for organizations. You're welcome to submit another draft if the association becomes notable in the future.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, JoIIygreen. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Draft:Heart to Heart Counseling Center, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:24, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Wilson-Hurley-Self-Portrait.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Wilson-Hurley-Self-Portrait.jpg, which you've attributed to http://www.wilson-hurley.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/selfportrait-a.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 16:38, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello JoIIygreen, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Draft:Wilson Hurley 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 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) 16:40, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reader Comments and Feedback

Fixed - Thanks! Fenn_treasure#Treasure_chest --JoIIygreen (talk) 20:56, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- - Notice to Jolly Green to fix name-switch error in Treasure Chest section. ***

I would make the edit myself but editing appears to be locked. I've edited Wikipedia before but can't recall my login info. Aaron J Cohen, AaronJCohen@aol.com

Details below:

I noticed a name-switch error in the current version of the Wikipedia page for the Fenn Treasure.

Under the section for the Treasure Chest, at the end of the paragraph, it says that the golden frog and emerald were missing but "Fenn" eventually found the frog.

Logically, you meant that 'the finder' (revealed to be Steuf, in later paragraphs), eventually found the frog but not the emerald. (This is supported by current facts)

Of course, Fenn wouldn't be looking for his own treasure, post-humously. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:645:4380:9040:C834:F0A9:4295:927F (talk) 21:39, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
