[edit]Hi, I noticed you've been doing some copy editing. Thank you! However, Wikipedia does not use Roman numerals when referring to centuries - IXth century, for example, is not correct; it should be 9th century, as it was originally. Please stop making those changes. Wikignome Wintergreentalk 19:23, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello! I've seen that you created Draft:Hamish Harding. You've indicated on your user page that you have been paid by EdgeAlt. Per WP:PAID, you must disclose who is paying you to edit (your "employer"), who the client is, and any other relevant role or relationship
. I've noticed that you uploaded a photo on Wikimedia commons as your "own work" and then added the photo to the article. Are you the photographer that took that image? If so, were you compensated for that photo? — Mikehawk10 (talk) 03:30, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]
Hello Tennessee at EdgeAlt! Your additions to Draft:One More Orbit 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. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
- 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 described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.
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. Sennecaster (Chat) 13:36, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
Concern regarding Draft:Hamish Harding
