Hi

Hi and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for the additions to Lithuania-related articles - they are much appreciated! Please remember to cite your sources of information. That can be done using <ref> tags - see WP:CITE on how they work. You can ask me if you have any questions. Without sources the material might be tagged for clean up and might end up eventually deleted :(

Thanks! Renata (talk) 19:53, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

another welcome!

Zidikai, do take up their offer. It's a good scheme!

I came here to thank you for your work on Lithuanian articles, etc. And just a reminder that on en.WP, we have a more restrictive policy on wikilinking than other WPs do. Years, dates, and common terms are usually not linked. Please let me know if you need any advice.

Cheers

Disambiguation link notification for April 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited St. Isidore Church, Renavas, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Samogitian and Seda (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Zidikai1, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Rokiškis Manor 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) 16:46, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User:Diannaa, thank you for letting me know and thank you for removing the content that allegedly infringes the laws of copyright. Could you please also explain me why the photos uploaded by me were also removed from the article? Thank you once again and I hope we will avoid any misunderstandings in the future. Zidikai1 (talk) 17:01, 18 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have checked the photos and they're okay to use. I've put the exterior view in the infobox, since it has better color and is more recent than the one that was there before. Please feel free to re-arrange if you like. Cheers, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 17:15, 18 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
