User talk:Chaoticfist

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Lemon Cash
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Lemon Cash, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.lemoncashband.com/meet-us.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.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 00:56, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Lemon Cash


A tag has been placed on Lemon Cash requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.lemoncashband.com/meet-us.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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. red dogsix (talk) 00:59, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

May 2015
Please do not remove the copyvio template from articles, as you did with Lemon Cash. Your action has been reverted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept non-free text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted, and removing copyright notices will not help your case. You can properly contest the deletion at Copyright problems. If you are the owner of the material, you may release the material under the Creative Commons and GFDL licenses, as detailed at WP:IOWN. Alternatively, you are welcome to create a draft in your own words at Talk:Lemon Cash/Temp. If you continue to insert copyright violations and/or remove copyright notices, you may be blocked from editing. Joseph2302 (talk) 01:10, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Note by Chaotic Fist. Sorry I did not mean to delete the copy write notice. It is my first time making a page and honestly I was wondering why the hell there was a link above the text. I can only claim ignorance as a defense. I will have the actual copy write owner verify that the info on here is allowed to be posted tomorrow in the evening.

Hello from Anna
Hello, and welcome. Just out of curiousity, are you interested in helping to build the encyclopedia without adding any content related to your art company and friends band page? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:26, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Copyright and Wikipedia
On the talk page for Lemon Cash you commented that the band gave you permission to use content from their Facebook page. However the issue is that although you were given permission to use the content, Wikipedia was not and the band would have to file a ticket through WP:ORTS to give Wikipedia permission. The only problem with this is that in most cases the material would have to be re-written anyway, since most official material will always contain content that is either too casually written and/or will have content that is seen as promotional in tone. For example, the content you posted had both of these issues and phrases like "today’s indelible indie-rock guitar sound" came across as too promotional.

There was also another issue, though- I couldn't see where the band passes WP:NBAND and a search did not bring up anything that would prove otherwise. Notability guidelines are fairly strict on Wikipedia and unfortunately I can't see where Lemon Cash would meet criteria. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  05:51, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I would recommend against adding content on the band or about anything that you have a conflict of interest with. I'll post more about this below. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  05:53, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
Hello, Chaoticfist. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.
