Image source problem with Image:T21.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:T21.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:10, 27 October 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:T21.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:T21.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 13:37, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Baksar
[edit]A tag has been placed on Baksar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Copyright problem: Karbigwan
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Karbigwan, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to be a copy from http://www.india9.com/i9show/Karbigwan-83929.htm, and therefore a copyright violation. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under allowance license, then you should do one of the following:
- If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details at Talk:Karbigwan and send an email with confirmation of permission to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted ''under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL), versions 1.3 or later and Creative Commons Share Alike (CC-BY-SA), versions 3.0 or later, under CC-BY-SA, versions 3.0 or later, or that the material is released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Karbigwan with a link to where we can find that note.
- If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL and CC-BY-SA, and note that you have done so on Talk:Karbigwan. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for instructions.
It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Karbigwan saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved. Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:57, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for your efforts to rewrite this. However, your changes are minimal. Information is not governed by copyright, but language and presentation are. Unless you are authorized to copy material from this source (if you are, you can verify that by the procedure above), you will have to put material completely in your own language, unless brief quotations are used under the guideline and policy at Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. (See Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing for some advice on how to write completely in your own language.) Since you have apparently not realized that text cannot be copied from external sites, I am reviewing some of your other contributors to ensure that they meet our copyright policy.
- I see that in Tilsahri you seem to have done some revision from [1]. That's a good start. However, some of the text remains verbatim from that source. While there is very little originality in some of this and it should be simple to rephrase, we also have to watch out for using too many facts from one source. While facts are not copyrighted, the author's choice of what facts to include and in what order is. Using multiple sources can help with this, as they are not likely each to include the same facts and you can draw some from each. If you only have one source, you may have to be selective about which facts it chooses to present are most essential. Rather than duplicating the sentence, "It is about 15 km east of Bidhnu, 10 km north of Narwal and 7 km west of Maharajpur", for instance, I have rewritten this in new language, choosing to focus only on the closer two: "Nearby towns include Narwal and Maharajpur, 10 km north and 7 km west respectively." The identification of the nearest airport and train station are pretty straightforward facts to include, so there's probably no danger in mentioning both of those. But I've rewritten that information as well. I hope that the handling of this article may help clarify to you some of the ways that information can be incorporated from copyrighted sources without infringing copyright. It is often more difficult when sources are brief and have minimal creativity.
- If you have any questions about this, please let me know. I will be watching your talk page for a time. Alternatively, you are welcome to come by my page, which you can reach by the link following my username. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:57, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
Additional issues
[edit]Further problems have been located in SS-45 Missile, Project Valiant, Project devil, Bhitargaon, Kos Minar, Kudarkot, Dalelnagar, Bhareh, Barauna Kalan, Airwa, Harchandpur, Bela, Auraiya, Shishgaran, Umrain, Musanagar, Patan, Uttar Pradesh, Pariyar, Araul, Asalatganj, Dharau, Derapur, Kakwan, Mawar, Bhimsen, Kanpur, Rasoolabad, Mangalpur, Kanpur Dehat, Sheoli, Bidhnu, Baksar, Sajeti, Sarsaul, Sarh, Kanpur, Maharajpur, Kanpur, Patara, Kanpur, Binaur and Makanpur. Each of these has been blanked. If you wish to rewrite them, each has a "temporary" space which is linked from the article's face where you can do so. Please do not edit any of these articles directly unless you have completed the verification procedure demonstrating your authorization to use the text and an administrator has restored the text of the articles. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:03, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- Your sentence "Nearby tourist destinations include Bhitargaon Temple" in Gajner, Kanpur is a good alteration of the source's "Tourist destinations include Bithur and Bhitargaon - famous for Bhitargaon Temple." It does duplicate the text "tourist destinations include", but this brief run doesn't demonstrate sufficient creativity to bar reuse, especially since you are not otherwise duplicating that sentence. However, unfortunately, most of the article remains a direct paste from that source. It has also been blanked to allow rewriting or verification of permission. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:35, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- I have completed evaluating the articles you have started. I have also found copied text in a number of previously existing articles. Since there is usable material in these, I have simply removed what copied text I found. Meanwhile, I am well out of time, so another administrator is evaluating other contributions. Obviously, my further check has found copying from a number of sources as well as that originally identified, which makes it seem less likely that you will be able to verify permission. Please remember as you move forward in contributing to the project that you should not copy text from any source unless you can prove that it is public domain or licensed compatibly with CC-By-SA. If you are in doubt, you need to write it completely in your own words. We welcome your contributions, but need you to understand comply with copyright policy as you continue. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:35, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for your note. Unfortunately, even if the articles are still in process, they can't use text from other sources unless those sources are free. Take, for example, this text. This text seems to have been previously published, under copyright notice, here. We can't use such text without permission, not even for a little while. This is against United States law, which Wikipedia (which is based in the United States) must obey. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:17, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

←Please note that you are not supposed to remove the template from these articles. If you wish to rewrite them, you must do so in the temporary space linked from the article's face. Your revisions to Makanpur were insufficient. Our article still copied text verbatim and closely paraphrased the source, including with text like "The town is famous for a shrine of Badi-ud-din Madar Shah who came to India during Islamic Sultanates and became popular as Shah Madar among his believers. ", which follows closely on the source: "This town, close toKannauj District border, is famous for a shrine of Badi-ud-din Madar Shah who came to India in the 13th century and became popular as Shah Madar among his believers." Changing a few words is not sufficient; the text must be written completely in your own language, which requires different structure and words. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:13, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- It's hard to rewrite when your source text is so brief, but to give you an example, I've created a draft at Talk:Patara, Kanpur/Temp. If your source says, "Patara is well connected by road and rail", it is not sufficient revision under US law to write, "Patara is nicely connected by rail and road." You've superficially changed the material, but it remains theirs. They do not own the facts that Patara is connected to various airports, railroads and/or highways, but they do own the way they present those facts. Rewriting text can be tricky...again, especially when your source is brief. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:35, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- I have not reviewed all of your alterations, though I note that you are continuing to work out of process. The templates themselves instruct that you are not to edit the article directly prior to handling by an administrator. So long as your alterations are sufficient, I am willing to come in after you and delete the infringement from history even if you are not working within process. But I do note that your change to Kos Minar does not address infringement. The lead belongs to that site as well. Accordingly, I have reverted it. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:30, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- I have reblanked Musanagar. You must clean all the infringement. The material from [2], which was tagged, still remains. Additionally, text was pasted from [3]. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:39, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- As per your request, as you were the sole substantial contributor, I have deleted Kos Minar. However, if you want the article deleted, you should simply leave the template in place. If they are not rewritten, articles tagged for copyright violations will be deleted as a matter of course. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:42, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Pawan uav
[edit]A tag has been placed on Pawan uav, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:24, 29 December 2009 (UTC)- Content pasted into M-46 Catapult from [4] and [5] has been removed by another contributor. The article Light weight launcher (LWL) has been blanked as copying a previously published source. Unless you are able to verify that it is public domain or compatibly licensed, the article will either be rewritten or deleted. Please be sure that future contributions do not include content copied outside of policy from other sources. Continued copyright problems may lead to extended or indefinite block against this account. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:24, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

Again, copyright violation
[edit]In Drdo light tank you added material that was substantially a copyright violation of [7].
Please stop this activity of copying material from other sources. You *may* completely rewrite material, especially from several sources. You *may* quote a sentence or two, with a proper reference. You may *not* simply copy whole sections of text when they are practically the whole content.
You are creating work for other Wiki editors, so please expend a little effort and write articles yourself. (Writing from memory, then checking your facts would probably work.) Thanks, Piano non troppo (talk) 08:28, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hi. It seems like you tried to alter this content, but I'm afraid that in order to comply with the US laws that govern Wikipedia, content must be rewritten completely. This is not always easy, but we have to avoid creative a derivative work by closely parapharasing the source. For instance, the source said:
In May 1993, eight years after they had first so stated, the Army categorically reiterated that there was no requirement for light tank.
- The material you put in the article read:
Eight years after they had first so stated the Army in May 1993, again reiterated that there was no requirement for light tank.
- The first 13 words are identical, although slightly rearranged. The remainder of the sentence is almost identical, except that you have changed the word "categorically" to "again."
- It is very difficult to rewrite sentence by sentence. Much easier to, as Piano non troppo suggests, read the source, comprehend it and then write it from memory. After that, you should always compare to the source to make sure you haven't accidentally gotten too close to the original. You might, for example, rewrite the entire passage:
The ‘Design and Development of Light Tank on BMP-I’ project approved in 1983 was intended to be complete in 1986. It never reached completion, but continued in production and trials until 1996 to a total cost of Rs 4.53 crore (Rs 2.91 through foreign exchange), well beyond its estimated Rs 2.54 crore. The Army, who had inspired the project with a 1976 GSQR, determined in July 1985 that a light tank on BMP was not needed, but did not withdraw its association from the project and even made suggestions that led in 1988 to 105mm turrets being implemented rather than the planned 90mm turrets. In May 1993, a year after the project left CVRDE to come under the governance of VRDE, the Army again announced that the light tank was unnecessary. Nevertheless, firing trials continued until August 1996, notwithstanding the February 1994 recommendation of the scientific advisor to Raksha Mantri that the project be closed.
- The information can be used, but the language and structure of the original cannot. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:47, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Charge Line Mine Clearing (Vehicle)
[edit]A tag has been placed on Charge Line Mine Clearing (Vehicle) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

- Hi, sorry to tag it again but I'm afraid trimming it down is not sufficient to avoid infringing copyright- you would have to extract the most important points from the website and rewrite them in your own words, providing a reference to the site and some other sources on order to establish notability. Best, HJ Mitchell | fancy a chat? 13:20, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Indefinite block
[edit]{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:15, 16 February 2010 (UTC)- As you seem to be continuing to violate copyright by pasting content onto Wikipedia from other sources, I see no choice but to block your account indefinitely from contributing. I do not believe that you should be unblocked absent some clear indication that you both understand and intend to comply with Wikipedia's copyright policy. Your behavior can put the project into serious legal jeopardy; it cannot continue. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:15, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
The article Self Propelled Mine Burier has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- "As of 2009 it is currently in trials"? Non-notable secret weapon that may or may not exist
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Orange Mike | Talk 02:20, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
Articles for deletion nomination of Self Propelled Mine Burier

Could you explain in detail your understanding of our copyright policy, what was wrong with your edits before and how are you going to avoid making these mistakes in the future? Max Semenik (talk) 11:13, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
Although i understand wiki's copyright policy, of rewriting the whole articles in one own's language. Problem with me was that source of information sometime only contained one or two sentences, so rewriting was tricky. Further I had floated a numerous pages at a time but could not rewrite them.
Copyright
[edit]Copyright, because it has legal ramifications in the real world, is one of the most important things to get right here, and for the same reason, is also a bit of a minefield. Your block for copyright violations will not be lifted until you can demonstrate a reasonable understanding of the issues involved. I've prepared a short series of questions to test your understanding of the major issues, however you'll need to do a bit of background reading first. The principal pages that cover copyright issues are as follows:
- Wikipedia's official copyright status and licensing
- Wikipedia's policy on copyright violations
- Wikipedia's policy on image copyright
- Instructions on donating copyrighted material
Please give detailed answers to the questions; "yes/no" responses are not sufficient.
Copyright questions (adapted from Yunshui's adoption school)

1. You find a book on Amazon that appears to be reusing the text of Wikipedia articles - in fact, they proudly announce it on the cover! The book costs £20.00. Are they allowed to use other writers' work to make money in this way? If so, why? If not, why not? 2. Is it ever permissible to copy and paste text from another website to Wikipedia? If so, under what circumstances would this be allowed? 3. A new user uploads a picture of Tony Blair from a newspaper article in the free newspaper The Metro. The newspaper has national circulation, and is read by millions of people daily, so the image is already readily available; it's also easy to find on Google Images. Is this picture:
Please give a brief reason for your answer. 4. You find a new article that appears to contain a block of text (about half the article's content) which has been copied directly from a non-free source. The rest of the article seems to be original material. What do you do? 5. An editor adds some text from a website that he owns the copyright to. He has issued a statement on the original website saying that, "the content of this site can be freely used on the English version of Wikipedia". Is the text acceptable? If not, why not? 6. A user uploads an image that he has created, a Microsoft Paint version of a diagram from a copyrighted work. His version is all but identical to the original, but is definitely his own work. Can this image be used on Wikipedia? 7. Some images may be better off being uploaded to Wikimedia Commons rather than Wikipedia. To which project would you upload the following:
A. 8. The subject of an article, a minor local celebrity, has uploaded a promotional photo of himself, taken at a book signing, to use on his Wikipedia page. Does he own the copyright to it? Can it be used on Wikipedia? 9. A new editor wants to use text from her website on Wikipedia. Assuming that the text is suitably impartial and that she isn't affiliated with the subject, what would you advise her to do in order to allow Wikipedia to use her work? 10. An editor adds the text, "Carter's discovery of the tomb created a sensation in London, where he was widely celebrated. Banners were hung in his honour, and a national holiday was declared," to the article Howard Carter. The source provided for this text (a recently published book on Carter's life) contains the wording, "His discovery of Tutankhamun's grave created a sensation back in London, where he was heavily feted. People hung banners from their windows in his honour, and the Queen declared a national holiday." Has the editor committed a copyright violation? |

The article Medak gun has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Stub unsourced since its creation, more than 12 years ago. The "Medak gun" is most likely nothing more than a licence-manufactured version of the Shipunov 2A42, with no changes compared to the original version.
