File permission problem with File:Lal Wickrematunge.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Lal Wickrematunge.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. January ( talk ) 07:18, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

September 2013
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Bot283287736", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it contains the prefix 'bot', see WP:IU. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. January ( talk ) 07:19, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to The Sunday Leader, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.  obi2canibe talk contr 15:38, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Lasantha Wickrematunge, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you.  obi2canibe talk contr 15:40, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Please add independent references to this article as soon as possible, otherwise it will have to be deleted.Deb (talk) 11:49, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Your addition to Assassination of Lasantha Wickrematunge has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images&mdash;you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.  obi2canibe talk contr 19:46, 14 September 2013 (UTC)

Re your e-mail
I am not trying to stop you contributing to Wikipedia. You edits have been reverted because they violate Wikipedia policies. Almost all of your contributions have been unreferenced, a violation of WP:VERIFY. Assassination of Lasantha Wickrematunge, an article started by you, contains no references. When another editor tagged the article as unreferenced you removed the tag without adding any references. On Lasantha Wickrematunge you have introduced a lot of content, all unreferenced, but worse still you have removed existing content which was referenced.

Assassination of Lasantha Wickrematunge contains large chunks of content which has been copied from other sources, a violation of WP:COPYRIGHT. You have added numerous images on Wikipedia and on Commons claiming that they were your own work when they weren't, another violation of WP:COPYRIGHT. When these images were deleted you reverted the removal of the images: 1, 2.

I and others have given you a lot of leeway because you are a new editor but if you continue to violate Wikipedia policies you will be blocked. If you cannot abide by these policies go somewhere else.-- obi2canibe talk contr 11:54, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Assassination of Lasantha Wickrematunge


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Assassination of Lasantha Wickrematunge. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Lasantha Wickrematunge. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Lasantha Wickrematunge – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Alexf(talk) 15:18, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.
