Talk:Karen Palacios

BLP edits
User:Karenclarinete, here's the thing. Content on Wikipedia needs to be based on reliable, secondary sources. I am sure your life is more complex than just that event--but for writing an encyclopedic article that only really matters if content is based on such secondary sources. If you can provide those sources, then we can expand the article. Also, given your conflict of interest, it's best if you propose edits/material/sources on this talk page, rather than editing the article yourself. And of course we need communication here to happen in English. (And please do NOT translate titles of sources into English--that's only confusing.) Thank you, Drmies (talk) 14:56, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Alleged copyvio
Funnily enough, based in copyvio accusations, I ran the article into Earwig's Copyvio Detector and it threw out a surprising similarity of 0.0%. I'll also remind that documents published by the United Nations fall under the public domain. Sourced content shouldn't be removed under these grounds.

 * I want to thank you for informing me about UN documents being public domain. As for the copyvio concerns, there are various passages that are directly copied from the UN document.
 * This includes:
 * UN: "Ms. Palacios was held in a basement cell with no windows" NoonIcarus: "Karen was held in a basement cell with no windows"
 * UN: "with nine other women" NoonIcarus: "with nine other women"
 * UN: "bright white lights" NoonIcarus: "bright white lights"
 * UN: "DGCIM officers lied to Ms. Palacios saying her grandmother had died and that her mother blamed Ms. Palacios for the death and did not want see her again." NoonIcarus: "DGCIM officers lied to Palacios telling her grandmother had died, that her mother blamed her for the death and did not want see Karen again."
 * As one can see, much of this was copied directly from the UN document and placed into the article, which raised copyvio concerns. However, as NoonIcarus shared, the document is public domain, so there technically isn't an issue, though different wording could be encouraged. WMrapids (talk) 19:19, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
