Defiant Wrestling

You need reliable sources (WP:PW/RS). If you can't find one, then don't add it, because it will be removed. Also the source has to say exactly what you claim it does. I've checked some of those sources (like the one PWInsider source) and it said nothing about the creation of the title or about the matches being on YouTube. The article was stubbed and therefore everything added to the page has to be supported by a reliable source. There was a discussion on Defiant Wrestling on the professional wrestling Wikiproject and they think that a roster should not be added at all.

Deletion discussion about Defiant Women's Championship

Hello, TheCorageone1,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Defiant Women's Championship should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Defiant Women's Championship .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Edit warring

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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 BRD 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You are very clearly edit warring at Defiant Hardcore Championship. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Galatz (talk • contribs) 00:11, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Jimmy Havoc, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Joe Coffey (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:53, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest & Paid Editing concerns - Defiant Wrestling

Hello, TheCorageone1. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Defiant Wrestling, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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 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. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nick Moyes (talk • contribs) 01:52, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright Problem or Conflict of Interests?

Hi TheCorageone1. I think we could have a serious problem. It might be a Conflict of Interests or it may be a copyright problem but I can't see how it can't be one of the two. Please let me explain step by step and then you can see if my logic is flawed.

Here we have the Defiant Wrestling logo which you uploaded: File:DefiantWrestlinglogo.jpg
On that page you have released the logo image into the Public Domain saying "I, the copyright holder of this work, release this work into the public domain. This applies worldwide." You are explicitly asserting that you are/were the copyright holder (i.e. owner) of the Defiant Wresting logo.
If you are/were the true copyright holder then I can not see any way in which you are not connected to Defiant Wrestling or its owners to an extent where disclosure of the conflict of interests is mandatory.
If you are/were not the true copyright holder then I can not see how you have any right to release the logo into the Public Domain.

In case you were not clear, to release something into the Public Domain is to voluntarily forfeit all copyright over it making it free for anybody to use for any purpose at all, including ones which Defiant Wrestling might not approve of! Obviously, only the owner of the copyright can choose to do this. People can't go around giving other people's stuff away and that includes copyrights and other forms of intellectual property. For example, imagine if somebody were to copy the logo of a well known burger chain, claim to release that logo into the public domain and then somebody else were to drive around outside their offices with that logo printed on the side of a bus next to a slogan saying "60% donkey meat". Can you imagine how they would react when told that this was all absolutely OK as the logo was in the Public Domain? It would not be OK at all. Companies take protecting their names and logos very seriously as they are an important part of their business operations. If releasing the logo into the Public Domain is not what you intended then please don't panic. It should be possible to delete it before any harm is done.

You might also need to consider registered Trade Marks. I have done a search and found that What Culture Ltd have a trademark on "We Are Defiant" and "WeAreDefiant" although the graphical logo is not included in that registration: Details at the UK Intellectual Property Office.

So, unless there is something I have missed or misunderstood, I fear that you now have two options:

Either declare your involvement with Defiant Wrestling or its owners. The message from Nick Moyes above tells you how to do that.
Or decide that you were mistaken in your ability to release the logo into the public domain and take the PD licence off the image. This will almost certainly lead to the image being deleted.

(I guess you could also do both, e.g. if you are connected to Defiant Wrestling but do not have the right to release the image or if have changed your mind about doing so.)

Only if you are a genuinely independent fan of Defiant Wrestling, and are entirely unconnected to it or its owners, is the second option a possibility without the first. If you are connected to Defiant or its owners then declaring that relationship is mandatory if you want to continue to edit Wikipedia on this subject. If you are in any doubt about the rules then please read WP:PAID carefully. --DanielRigal (talk) 01:18, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

ANI notice

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Galatz ^Talk 15:28, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewing the discussion created here at ANI involving you, I responded and set expectations that you need to follow regarding future edits you make to Defiant Wrestling. I'm also adding this warning and these expectations here:

You need to participate on the article's talk page and discuss the changes you wish to make to the article - especially if other editors object to it. Failing to participate in the relevant discussion and after others have asked you to, and continuing to add content against consensus is disruptive. Before you add any more content, you need to discuss it and everyone needs to come to an agreement first. This is proper dispute resolution protocol and a policy that needs to be followed.

If you have questions or need help with anything, please don't be afraid to ask! I don't want you to feel singled-out or that you're being harshly punished (I obviously don't want you to ever feel that way here, but I emphasize this especially if you have questions about anything policy-wise), but please understand we can't continue the repeated cycle of adding content and having it removed by other editors who object. Discussion needs to take place. I urge you to participate :-).

My talk page is always open to you if you need anything. Thanks for understanding, and I wish you happy editing. Best -- ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 02:36, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of File:Defiant Wrestling logononfree.jpg

The file File:Defiant Wrestling logononfree.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free image of a deleted page

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Orphaned non-free image File:Defiant Wrestling logononfree.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Defiant Wrestling logononfree.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:56, 10 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
