UNSW Canberra at ADFA
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of UNSW Canberra at ADFA, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://info.unsw.adfa.edu.au/index.html.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 02:47, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Blocked
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for copyright violations. From some random checks, it appears that most of the content from the UNSW Canberra at ADFA and Michael Frater (academic) articles you created were copied and pasted from their official websites. This is not acceptable under Wikipedia's policies on copyright (please see WP:COPYRIGHT).. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

 * Hello, in response to your email, you should not be writing about a topic which you have a personal involvement with, especially when the material you're posting is essentially the same as the organisation's website. Please see Conflict of interest and Copyrights. Even if you were to arrange for the text of UNSW@ADFA's website to be released under a Wikipedia-friendly creative commons license, it would still be unacceptable to post it given its promotional nature. This is an attempt to write an encyclopedia, and neutrality is highly important. Please note that you were blocked for copyright violations, and not plagiarism. If you were were asked to develop this article as part of your job, please bring the above policies to your boss's attention. Nick-D (talk) 08:44, 17 October 2012 (UTC)


 * What about the WP:COI issues? (✉→BWilkins←✎) 08:11, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * On the basis of your email, you have a significant conflict of interest with the subject of the articles you were working on, and were copying and pasting this material from the website as part of your work (I won't disclose the exact extent of this given that it would involve "outing" you). As such you really shouldn't be working on topics relating to UNSW at ADFA. Nick-D (talk) 10:26, 25 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Conflict of Interest isn't usually a blockable thing, but it does lead people astray, and we are wary of unblock requests where there is COI. You work for the uni, therefore you do have a conflict of interest whatever department you work in. COI is not forbidden, but it is not recommended as neutrality of editing is difficult for people in this position. We also require more than your knowledge of things - we require things to be verifiable, and preferably independently wherever there is any chance of dispute. You cannot be a source for edits you make. (This also precludes people adding info about themselves to articles about them - they may well know the most about the subject, but they are not independent of it and verification WP:V is necessary.) Unlike university research (in science particularly), where original work is the name of the game, we like things to be rooted in (but not copied from) other sources. This is not a decline of your request - just an expansion on points made by others. Peridon (talk) 09:45, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
