- But, isn't Wikipedia supposed to be neutral and the Donetsk and Luhansk PR are not "puppet states" of Russia. They were created out of unrest, and they are allied to Russia, but they cannot be considered puppet states. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 12:05, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
Twajeel Airport moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Twajeel Airport, 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.

Cerebellum (talk) 10:15, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Tomskiy Khutor, Pakistan
[edit]Hello. I have a few comments on Tomskiy Khutor, Pakistan.
1. Have you checked the coordinates? They lead to a deserted area on the map. There is no air force base.
2. The Shina and Balti names seem to be read as [tsomskiy] and [tsomtskiy] respectively. Not [tomskiy]. Are you sure they are correct? Also Tomskiy Khutor doesn't sound very Shina or Balti. Do you know anything about its etymology?
3. Do you have any other sources of information about this settlement? In English or Urdu.
Thank you very much. Mrkvkn (talk) 22:32, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, it is just some place I found on Google Maps, and I though I would just add it on Wikipedia. Same thing I did with Rajkot, Sahiwal District. You can search Tomskiy Khutor on many places like these [1], [2], [3], [4], and [5]. In Shina and Balti 's' sometimes becomes 'ts' so for the Shina and Balti one, I thought 'ts' would be the correct way because Tomskiy Khutor does sound Pakistani really. And the airforce base comes from here, [6], it says that when I search up on Google, and it says it is on a village in Gilgit-Baltistan near the Indian border.
- Thanks. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 22:20, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks.
- Actually only link 5 is more or less valid. I also have seen this map. And a couple more maps dated in 2000's. But after researching of dozens British, Soviet and US maps of 19-20th centuries I haven't seen this settlment.
- Links 1-3 are internet services, that just have parsed Tomskiy Khutor from Google Maps.
- Link 4 is probably a mistake. It's a forum about poetry. I can't find any mentions of the settlement. Maybe I just haven't read attentively enough? Tell me, please, if I'm wrong.
- Link 6 is a list of points on a map. There's no mention that Tomskiy Khutor is or was an airforce base.
- I'm still researching about it. Please, let me know if you also find more information.
- Best regards. Mrkvkn (talk) 18:57, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Native names
[edit]Hi! I appreciate your efforts at improving Wikipedia's coverage of the languages of Pakistan: these articles certainly need some attention!
However, I don't think large-scale additions of images with the Urdu spellings of the language names are helpful. If a language isn't written at all, such an addition will be plainly incorrect. If the language has a written tradition, then you'd need to find the spelling of the name within that tradition: there's nothing to guarantee that all the conventions of Urdu spelling would apply. And without a source for the spelling, the image is a form of WP:OR, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. Uanfala (talk) 12:16, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
- A lot of Northern Pakistani languages with the help of the Forum for Language Initiatives (FLI) have now been written, you can see this on their website. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 12:22, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
- If you find the native spelling of a given name on that website (assuming this is the spelling in an orthography that's accepted by the language community and not merely proposed by linguists), then you can use it. But in that case you need to add a reference to where you got the spelling from. Uanfala (talk) 12:30, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
- But where? Should I add it on the file page? Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 13:07, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
- Adding the source on the file page should be enough as far as the image is concenred. And if you write out the name of the language within the article text, you should add a reference there as well. Uanfala (talk) 13:10, 9 August 2022 (UTC)

Crimean Tatar
[edit]Hello, thank you for File:Crimean Tatar.svg! But I see a that there is a mistake in Crimean Tatar Arabic script, there is written قرىم but needs to be قريم. TayfunEt. (talk) 08:24, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
- @TayfunEt.: Many Turkic languages that use the Arabic script use "ى" instead of "ي" or "ی" because it represents the vowel "i". You can see this on Wiktionary [7]. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 20:59, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
Makrani dialect
[edit]Hi @Muhafiz-e-Pakistan: How goes it. These bare-url that your using on these articles are very poor. Can you please take a look at WP:REFB and start using proper cites. For google book references, you can copy the the url field in the book citation dialog and it generates the citation for you. scope_creepTalk 09:01, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Scope creep: what issues did you see in the article (apart from the use of bare urls) that necessitated blanking it? @Muhafiz-e-Pakistan: it's important to provide at least the basic details (author, title, year and publication), because they describe the source used, and because web addresses may change over time. You can have a look at WP:REFBEGIN and the pages listed there for further info. I've got two further points to add to that. When possible at all, it's preferable to list the page numbers in the source that support the relevant statements in the Wikipedia article: when checking out the references in a Wikipedia article (either as a reader or an editor), you don't want to have to trawl through hundreds of pages in order to find the one passage that the article author used. Also, when citing online resources, it's best not to link to the pdf file directly (like this: http://prr.hec.gov.pk/jspui/bitstream/123456789/15972/1/Hamid%20ali%20baloch%20balochi%202018%20uni%20of%20balochistan%20quetta.pdf), because the file locations may change in the future; it's better to instead link to its metadata page (in this case: http://prr.hec.gov.pk/jspui/handle/123456789/15972), partly because that page is much more likely to stay permanent. Uanfala (talk) 11:40, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Uanfala:, @Muhafiz-e-Pakistan: These articles have been reverted by the linguists guys because they are not sufficiently detailed nor correctly defined in their language subgroup nor referenced properly and i'm just following suit. Linquistics is complex. More than that they are full of bare urls which in this day and age is unacceptable. They are listicle articles, no better than what you find in a blog, and that is probably the reason why they're being reverted. scope_creepTalk 12:39, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Scope creep: who are those linguists guys? The only revert on Makrani is by you [8]. I've had a look at some other pages in your recent contribs, and I don't see anything different [9] [10]. Is there some talk thread that I'm missing? Uanfala (talk) 14:00, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Scope creep: why are you reverting all the language articles I created? You should probably start doing this with Rangri dialect (Malvi), Gowro, and other articles that barely have anything on them. The citations I added on these articles were reliable and I added a lot of information, especially on the Rangri dialect (Haryanvi) page. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 16:22, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Uanfala: Ok, I didn't know thanks for telling me. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 16:34, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- Muhafiz-e-Pakistan, just a question about the list of alternative names of the language mentioned in the first sentence here. Where in the cited paper by Spooner is the passage that supports these names? This has a second reference, to globalrecordings.net, but that's not generally a reliable source, so should be avoided. Uanfala (talk) 17:11, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Uanfala: @Muhafiz-e-Pakistan: (edit conflict) I was told by somebody at the beginning of year, who explained they are often copies from external language sites with no real academic content, in a complex area. Copies effectively. I didn't notice it at first, but when I checked a few it was clear. I don't rememeber where I saw it, or who it was. It was months ago. I wouldn't revert those other articles you have mentioned above, as they are not being reviewed, even though one or two of them are chronically bad. They are no more than copies from external sites, and don't constitute a proper academic article, in a relatively complex subject area. Not one of the references are valid in any of the articles you have mentioned about. scope_creepTalk 16:48, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- scope_creep, yes, the linguistics of South Asia is a complex area, at the very least because of the confusing variety of language names (which means, for example, that a single language name may be used by two different sources to refer to completely different language varieties) and because of the widely varying quality of the literature (which means one needs to be really selective). But you got me properly confused now.
they are often copies from external language sites
, what is a copy of those sites? I don't get it. Among the references in this version, not a single one is valid? The first one, for example, is an academic paper by one of the foremost authorities in this area, the second one is an entry in a commonly cited encyclopedia published by OUP... why are these not valid? Uanfala (talk) 17:11, 16 August 2022 (UTC)- @Uanfala: @Muhafiz-e-Pakistan: This article presents a slightly different problem. This is a good article:iversion with good sources. What it doesn't have is good references. They are bareurls WP:BURL. In a five to ten year period, every one of these apart from, perhaps the Jstor ref will be a dud. Completely unusable, so they are still dud refs. What is the point of writing an article like this, when you know it is going to be damaged in such a short time. What is the use of it. The article can be reverted, obviously. I have made by point. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan, please take a look WP:REFB and please add proper citations. Doi's can be put into the cite journal doi field, click on the icon and it will populate the reference for you. There is so need for bare urls in 2022. It is unacceptable. scope_creepTalk 18:16, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- So the only issue with those articles after all was the fact that their references were bare urls? scope_creep, I don't believe there's anything in the guidelines that will allow the blanking of content just because its refs aren't well-formatted. Helping new editors improve their references is great, but please don't revert their article creations just because of that. Uanfala (talk) 18:32, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Uanfala: No. This is a slightly different problem to those that are copied almost verbatim from dodgy wordpress sites, blogs and places like that and usually NPOV for some reason. A new editor shouldn't be puting in bareurls. This is 2023, not 2006. It is really sloppy practice and is below the standard expected of new articles. If there was attempt to create proper references, fair enough, but there wasn't. Instead, its the assumption that somebody else will fix, its ok. But it doesn't get fixed. The numbers aren't here on WP for that now and never will be. They will never get fixed, so its needs to be done at the beginning. Do you know, I heard they teach high-school kids to write WP articles in Scottish schools now, those in media classes. scope_creepTalk 18:49, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- If there really is anything among the articles you've reverted that is copied from other websites, scope_creep, then you should really be explicit about it, because that may involve copyvios and we'd need to deal with those promptly. As for the bare urls, I'm fully on board with you that they should be avoided. However, I don't think it's particularly unusual for a new editor to not know about that, and what I do find unacceptable is for experienced editors to be doing mass reverts of content additions simply because of subpar formatting. Uanfala (talk) 18:59, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- I check them for copyvio. I do a before on them. I don't think its masses of redirects. Every time I do a session at npp, I might revert 2-3 article out of 40-60, and that is in a good day. If there was mass revert, I would out of there in a New York minute. This is more than normal because of those language/dialect articles. The guidelines on bareurls are about a decade behind, and folk want to get rid them. I work on the cat:nn for the last 3 weeks. scope_creepTalk 19:14, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

- @Scope creep: I am sure that only one of the articles (Rangri dialect (Haryanvi) used a blog post as a source. The Makrani dialect and Kabutra language pages do not use any blog post or anything related to that. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 19:37, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Cyrillic Azeri
[edit]Hello. In the image you added to the Azerbaijani language article here, you've also included cyrillic Azerbaijani. The cyrillic script of the language is, as far as I'm aware, no longer officially used anywhere. I could not find any source about what script of Azeri is official in Dagestan either. So, I think it'd be best if you only included Latin and Perso-Arabic script name. — Golden call me maybe? 13:22, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Golden: In Russia it is still used check these links - https://www.ethnologue.com/language/azj , https://omniglot.com/writing/azeri.htm , https://elearn.fiu.edu/e-dev/WorldExplorer/continents/asia/azerbaijan/azerbaijan_language.htm Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 13:30, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

Turkic Infobox Images
[edit]Hey, I've noticed that you have recently added infobox images for many Turkic languages. This is great as Turkic languages wee previously lacking in that field, however, please note that in a lot of cases, just the name of the language is not enough for infobox images. For example, in the recently added Azeri infobox image, the text reads "آذربایجان/Azərbaycan/Азәрбајҹан". This alone is not enough to disambiguate the language and can also be misinterpreted as the country name, or even the ethnic group. In most cases, Turkic languages add a suffix like dili/tili or cha/sha to point out it's a language. It would be nice if you could do that too! ThatDohDude (talk) 15:20, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

[edit]You need to read wp:npa and wp:brd. Slatersteven (talk) 14:34, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Slatersteven: shouldn't Wikipedia be "neutral"? When talking about the Donetsk People's Republic and Luhansk People's Republic, why is the term "puppet" added when they broke away from Ukraine with the ethnic population's help? When talking about the East (China, Russia, Iran), Wikipedia always portrays them as bad like the Uyghur genocide which is not even a genocide when the population is increasing. The real genocide is of Palestinians by Israeli authorities and "settlers". Please, can you send this to Wikipedia's high members or someone important in Wikipedia? Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 14:45, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- We GO with what RS say, if RS say it is genocide so do we. If RS say it is a puppet so do we. If you are unhappy about this it is down to you to raise the issue, not me. Slatersteven (talk) 15:17, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- Also you had better read wp:not and [[wp:nothere]. Slatersteven (talk) 15:18, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- It is a bit ironic to be speaking about neutrality when you add to Azov Regiment that it is objectively Neo-Nazi, and remove information on the page about Russian war crimes without offering any explanation. In the future if you plan on removing content, espescially on contested articles such as the Azov Regiment, at least use an edit summary to explain your actions. You should also note that consensus on that article is to not label it as Neo-Nazi in Wikipedias voice, as you did. See the talk page for the RfC. TylerBurden (talk) 11:51, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

[edit]As a result of your edit warring and disruptive editing, I have indefinitely blocked you from editing chapli kebab. I have observed you on a few articles removing content related to Afghanistan, India, and Hindi where it is relevant. Edits such as this and this reek of viewing Wikipedia as a battleground for nationalistic editing. Why would you remove Afghanistan and India when a reference shows that chapli kebabs are consumed in those countries? Why would you remove Hindi, the lingua franca of north India, from an article when the article states that chapli kebabs are eaten there? I see that you have appealed to WP:INDICSCRIPT but that applies equally to Urdu, which you retained. Please be aware that if you take your current style of disruptive editing to other articles, you may face a topic ban on all WP:ARBIPA articles or be blocked from the entire encyclopedia. Read the Guide to appealing blocks. Academic Challenger (talk) 02:14, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. --1990'sguy (talk) 03:30, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

Gohari, Pakistan moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Gohari, Pakistan, 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.

Notice of Arbitration Enforcement noticeboard discussion
[edit]Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a report involving you at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement regarding a possible violation of an Arbitration Committee decision. The thread is Muhafiz-e-Pakistan. Thank you. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 00:21, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
Notice that you are now subject to a sanction
[edit]The following sanction has been imposed on you:
You are indefinitely topic-banned from Uyghurs, Uyghur genocide, and topics that are related to Uyghurs or Uyghur genocide, all broadly construed.
You have been sanctioned because of your continued disruptive editing in this topic area, after being made aware of the general sanctions and after being warned for past disrupion.
This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator as authorised by the community's decision at Wikipedia:General sanctions/Uyghur genocide, and the procedure described by the general sanctions guidelines. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions for that topic. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.
You may appeal this sanction at the administrators' noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 02:03, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
Hi, Muhafiz-e-Pakistan. Judging from your edit to Draft:Uyghurs in Afghanistan, I'm wondering if there's something about the above you haven't understood? If you continue to edit in violation of your topic ban, I will have to enforce it via a block from editing. (For the avoidance of any ambiguity, this should be considered an only warning.) -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 15:36, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Tamzin Please listen, the media only really shows the Uyghurs in Afghanistan as militants. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 16:25, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
- Continuing to say that is itself a topic ban violation. If you would like to appeal your ban, you may follow the instructions above. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 18:01, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Tamzin What can I say, the media reports on the wrong things on Uyghurs. It's not my fault. I could only find 2 sources on Uyghur being described as non-militants and refugees who fled China in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. I am not against the Uyghurs, but reporting on what I can find on the internet. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 19:37, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
- I've just had a quick look at refs #8-10 in the current version of the draft. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan, it appears that those sources talk of the presence of Uyghur militants in Afghanistan, but you have used them to support the rather different claim that militancy is what most Uyghurs in the country are engaged in. This seems to indicate fundamental misunderstanding of verifiability and original research. As you know, you're free to contribute to any non-Uyghur related topics, but I think that before doing so it will be a good idea to carefully study those two policy pages. – Uanfala (talk) 10:41, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Crimean bridge
[edit]Please note that the overwhelming majority of independent reliable sources and the international community consider Crimea to be Ukrainian territory under Russian occupation and consider Russia's alleged annexation illegal and invalid. You personally may feel differently, of course, but Wikipedia articles summarize what independent reliable sources state. If sources have changed what they say, please discuss on the talk page. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 12:41, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- @331dot But it is not recognised to be part of Ukraine by all of the international community. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 12:42, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- I didn't say all(though pretty much only Russia and its allies accept Russia's position), I said the overwhelming majority. What either you or I think does not matter, what matters is what independent reliable sources say- and the vast majority of them(with the exception of Russian state-controlled TV, which reports what the government tells it to and as such is not independent) say the alleged annexation is illegal and invalid according to the UN as a body and most of the international community. As such, that's what Wikipedia says. If that has changed and more countries recognize the alleged annexation, please offer your sources on the talk page. 331dot (talk) 12:50, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Ok Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 12:51, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- @331dot But to be honest, only Western countries do not recognise the annexation. Nobody else has really commented on opposition except the West. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 16:03, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- China has not recognized it. I don't believe Pakistan has either. Even Kazakhstan has declined to recognize it. Even if you are correct, that doesn't change what I've said- you need to offer independent reliable sources that indicate the UN has changed its mind or that indicate countries are falling over themselves to recognize Russia's position. 331dot (talk) 16:08, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

- China has not recognized it. I don't believe Pakistan has either. Even Kazakhstan has declined to recognize it.

- I didn't say all(though pretty much only Russia and its allies accept Russia's position), I said the overwhelming majority. What either you or I think does not matter, what matters is what independent reliable sources say- and the vast majority of them(with the exception of Russian state-controlled TV, which reports what the government tells it to and as such is not independent) say the alleged annexation is illegal and invalid according to the UN as a body and most of the international community. As such, that's what Wikipedia says. If that has changed and more countries recognize the alleged annexation, please offer your sources on the talk page. 331dot (talk) 12:50, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
Links to draft articles
[edit]Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Urtsuniwar. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 21:31, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

Ways to improve Goharabad, Mansehra District
[edit]Hello, Muhafiz-e-Pakistan,
Thank you for creating Goharabad, Mansehra District.
I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
Thanks for the article! However, its refs are poor, relying on probably unreliable travel websites without any indication that the geographical notability guideline (WP:NGEO) is met. Could you show that this place has legal recognition as per an official census? The guideline states
Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history. Census tracts, Abadi, and other areas not commonly recognized as a place (such as the area in an irrigation district) are not presumed to be notable. WP:GNIS and GEOnet Names Server do not satisfy the "legal recognition" requirement and are also unreliable for "populated place" designation.Further, the article is an orphan with no other articles linking to here, so I've tagged notability, unreliable sources, and orphan. If there is no improvement in an hour, I will move this to draft, as currently, it's sadly not ready for mainspace.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|VickKiang}}
. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~
. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Goharabad, Mansehra District moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Goharabad, Mansehra District, 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.

The page File:Mangocher.jpg has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appeared to be a blatant copyright infringement of https://www.flickr.com/photos/57179092@N02/17200791554/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — 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.
Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
