Citing Sources
Welcome to Wikipedia! If you want to know how to cite sources, please head to WP:REFSTART. Cheers! - I Need Support - :3 02:48, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Date ranges
Per MOS:DATERANGE, when making date ranges please use en dashes like (2015–2018) rather than hypens (2015-2018). En dashes are wider. Typically these are already present in the infobox, you just need to copy/paste them rather than typing a hyphen. UW Dawgs (talk) 19:16, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! UW Dawgs (talk) 19:07, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

January 2019
Hello, I'm UW Dawgs. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Marques Tuiasosopo, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Note, substantially all of your recent infobox edits appear to be unsourced and in the case of Tuiasosopo it removed accurate content. UW Dawgs (talk) 19:10, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Justin Fields, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Brian Angelichio, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. UW Dawgs (talk) 02:55, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 30
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Chase Cartwright, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Coach ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Chase_Cartwright check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Chase_Cartwright?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:20, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Orlando Special


The article Orlando Special has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Current events portal
Hi JBurger2018! We all appreciate the work you're doing in the current event portals, but several of your edits have been reverted in the past few days because the stories posted in the current events portal should have some international significance. Events like these are either very local or don't really mean anything yet because they're announcements about announcements. They just clog the list with trivial information.

Thanks! Isa (talk) 23:48, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello JBurger2018, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Portal:Current events have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.


 * 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 the 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 legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps in Translation. See also 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. ansh 666 18:36, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without evidence of permission, as you did at Portal:Current events.

 * This block need not be forever but before you can be unblocked you will need to make a convincing commitment to comply with wikipedia's copyright policies and to be responsive to other editors' advice/comments. Abecedare (talk) 05:41, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
