Hello, I'm Schrödinger's jellyfish. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Ana C. Reyes, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 05:29, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Andrea Shaffer, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Ana C. Reyes did not conform to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may have been removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to  The Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Again, welcome! Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 05:30, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Andrea Shaffer! Your additions to Ivermectin 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 Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points: It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing.

 * Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. Read about this at Non-free content in the sections on ”text”. Additionally, Help:Referencing for beginners offers guidance on how to cite sources.
 * Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words and structure it properly, adhering to the principles of paraphrasing. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources to verify the information and demonstrate that it is not original research.
 * Image use guidelines: We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. Any other images used on Wikipedia must be available under a free and open copyright license that permits commercial and derivative reuse.
 * Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. However, unlike many other sites that allow content licensing for site use while retaining non-free ownership, Wikipedia requires that content release be irrevocable, worldwide, and either into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Donating copyrighted materials.
 * Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without proper attribution. If you want to copy or translate content from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps outlined at Copying within Wikipedia.
