Speedy deletion nomination of E.J. Wake
A tag has been placed on E.J. Wake requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Plot Summaries
Hi and welcome! Please note that plot summaries are typically copyrighted, so we can't just paste them into articles. You are welcome to summarize in your own words. Thanks! Crow Caw  19:15, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Warning
Please read the guidelines before attempting to create any more articles. Your articles are being redirected because they have no references and contain no evidence of notability, which is a fundamental requirement for a wikipedia article. Deb (talk) 19:20, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
 * You need to read the guidelines, including Identifying reliable sources. It's important to show that each novel has been the subject of coverage in independent publications. I gather that some of her books have received awards, so you could start by finding press reports that refer to this. You can also use Teahouse and Articles for creation to get advice from other editors. Deb (talk) 19:33, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, books 24-30 didn't receive any awards or honors. I personally went to each individual page on her site and they didn't have any. How else might I find this information? Or, should I put that there were no awards for those books instead of omitting the section? As for Dark Legend, Dark Symphony, Dark Hunger, and Dark Celebration, they didn't go to their own pages on the books, but sent people back to Christine Feehan's wikipedia page. This is all so confusing. I even put their awards and everything. What was wrong with them? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emilywake (talk • contribs) 19:53, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Emilywake, and welcome to Wikipedia. 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 cite the source using an inline citation. 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. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 19:58, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Editing POKEMON THE SERIES: SUN AND MOON - ULTRA LEGENDS
I was forced to undo your changes because the editing instructions for this page very clearly state: "do not change the Japanese names to their English translations UNTIL they have finished airing in an English speaking nation in the English dub. Being just "close" to airing in English is not enough; they must actually air beforehand in whatever timezone is the country of the original English airing". Also, you must be more careful in your spelling of the English names.TonyPS214 01:22, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
