Ways to improve C Earth
Hi, I'm De la Marck. Cheesemichael, thanks for creating C Earth!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Do you think you could make the page a little less promotional in tone?

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Le Sanglier des Ardennes (talk) 06:16, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello Cheesemichael, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to C Earth 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. Meters (talk) 06:11, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from C Earth. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. This article is still written like a piece of advertising for the company. It has no reliable sources at all to show that the company or product is notable. Thsi article will soon be put up for deletionif you do not address these problems. Meters (talk) 06:36, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Potential Conflict of interest
I notice that you added the C Earth logo File:CEARTHLOGO.png as your own work. If it is your own work then it seems likely that you work for the company and have a conflict of interest in creating the article C Earth and must declare your conflict of interest. So, which is it? Your work and you have an undisclosed conflict of interest, or an improper claim of your own work on a copyrighted company logo? Since you have added significant amounts of copyrighted material to the article unless you provide evidence that his really is your work I'm going to assuming the image is not your own work and ask to have it deleted.

 * Sorry, i am very new to wikipedia and dont really know the proper practices.. trying to comply as much as i can with the rules — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cheesemichael (talk • contribs) 06:23, November 2, 2015‎
 * Pretty straightforward issues:
 * 1. Do you work for C Studio or any other company associated with the C Earth software? If so you have a WP:Conflict of Interest and must follow the rules regarding conflicts of interest. It does not mean you cannot edit the article, but you must declare your conflict of interest and be careful how you edit the article.
 * 2. Are the images you are uploading really your own work? If you are copying company logos and images that you did not personally make then you do not own the copyright and cannot grant Wikipedia the right to use the images. It may still be possible for us to use them, but not under the license you are using. Meters (talk) 06:37, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to C Earth, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. The maintenance templates are there for a reason. Even if you don't address the problem someone else might notice them and help improve the article. Removing them just increases the likelihood that this article will be deleted.

Nomination of C Earth for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article C Earth is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/C Earth until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Meters (talk) 20:38, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
