Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Right to Dream Academy has been reverted. Your edit here to Right to Dream Academy was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://twitter.com/https://twitter.com/right2dream) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest). If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 10:11, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Right to Dream Academy, you may be blocked from editing. ''Several editors including myself have reverted large amounts of text you have added that is either unsourced, almost wholly promotional in nature, or sourced to a primary source. Please do not add back any of this information without reviewing the tone and providing links to reliable secondary sources.'' Fenix down (talk) 10:34, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Right to Dream Academy. Fenix down (talk) 10:58, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Right to Dream Academy 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 get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's 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&mdash;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&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Ayeley Commodore-Mensah, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Right to Dream Academy has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or 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 a cited source. You can read about this at 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 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 information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk 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 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 can, but please follow the steps in 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. Fenix down (talk) 11:09, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Right to Dream Academy. ''Please stop adding material that is clearly promotional in tone (using phrases lie "we are..." is a bit of a giveaway). You have made significant improvements in terms of sourcing of other elements, but the promotional angle you insist on adding back to other sections is disruptive.'' Fenix down (talk) 15:10, 28 May 2015 (UTC) You have been blocked from editing for a period of 12 hours for advertising or self-promoting in violation of the conflict of interest and notability guidelines, as you did at Right to Dream Academy. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice:.

This is your only warning; if you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising again, as you did at Right to Dream Academy, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ''Do not add promotional material to any article. If you do this again, you will be blocked indefinitely.'' Fenix down (talk) 10:18, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

Editing of Right to Dream Academy
Thought I would also post this here to ensure you see it as it contains a number of points you need to look at quite urgently. Please make any reply on my talk page though where the conversation originated.


 * Don't worry about the inconveniences, everyone makes mistakes as they learn. I have to be honest though, if I had seen the last element of promotional material you added before it was reverted then I would have blocked you indefinitely as a promotion-only account, the only reason I haven't is that your edits since then do not seem to be particularly promotional. I am however, quite concerned when you say that you have a deadline to meet. Can you clarify what this means, please? Are you connected with Right to Dream? Are you being paid to edit this article. Whilst this is not forbidden, you should ensure that you stay well within the boundaries set out in WP:COI and particularly point 4 in the terms of use here. Fenix down (talk) 15:26, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

I notice you are currently continuing to edit Right to Dream Academy. Can I ask you please to stop temporarily and address the concerns raised above regarding paid editing and COI. Fenix down (talk) 15:54, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
