Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Pchowla, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Student Environmental Action Coalition have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. 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 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 the 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 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.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 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) 13:41, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How to get an OTRS ticket

You cannot post copyright material on Wikipedia even if you are the copyright holder, unless special licensing permissions are in place. That is because Wikipedia aims to be freely distributable and copyable by anyone, and all content must have the appropriate documentation in place before that can happen. Wikipedia has procedures in place for this purpose. If you are the copyright holder and wish to release this material under a compatible license, please see WP:Donating copyrighted materials for an explanation of how to do it. There's a sample permission email at WP:Consent. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 15:21, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: High Level Panel on International Financial Accountability Transparency and Integrity for Achieving the 2030 Agenda (August 19)

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

To pass WP:GNG, need several citations to reliable sources such as newspapers and books that go into several paragraphs of detail about the article subject. The subject's own website is not independent enough.

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:High Level Panel on International Financial Accountability Transparency and Integrity for Achieving the 2030 Agenda and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

–Novem Linguae (talk) 11:52, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Novem Linguae - I'll add some external sources, though I note that I modelled this submission on other UN High Level Panels (e.g. High-level Panel on Threats, Challenges and Change and Global High-Level Panel on Water and Peace). Those articles did not have much in the way of reliable secondary sources & external sources/references. Pchowla (talk) 13:42, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Pchowla! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:52, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK I have added many news sources and secondary references - hope that demonstrates the significant coverage! :) Pchowla (talk) 14:24, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: High Level Panel on International Financial Accountability Transparency and Integrity for Achieving the 2030 Agenda (September 19)

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 MaxnaCarta was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: I've had a look at this. This particular topic is insufficiently notable for inclusion and does not warrant a stand alone article. There simply is not enough coverage for this UN panel to create a full article and this is not appropriate for inclusion on Wikipedia. Highly scrupulous also of an editor that has 57 edits and five disclosures for COI - yet did not include this as a COI.

MaxnaCarta (talk) 12:21, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MaxnaCarta, just want to note that I do have a COI for this page but perhaps I labelled it wrongly. I put in COI disclosure for "FACTI Panel" which is for this page I drafted. "FACTI" is the acronym for the "High Level Panel on International Financial ACcountability Transparency and Integrity for Achieving the 2030 Agenda". I think I may have put the COI in with the acronym before creating the draft page and then modeled on other Wikipedia pages for high level panels at the UN, decided the put the full Panel name in the title afterword. Definitely not trying to hide anything here. Happy to amend the COI in some way if that is necessary. I will use the facility on the page itself to "ask Advice" because I not sure how to prove sufficient coverage without adding unnecessary references. There are definitely more references in major newspapers for this panel than other UN Panels that have had articles approved for creation. Pchowla (talk) 14:22, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
