Welcome!
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:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified 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 abuse of multiple accounts.
 * 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! GorillaWarfare (talk) 02:57, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with... I just published a page about a non-fiction book and it was deleted for copyright infringement because the book is also listed on Amazon as well as on the book publisher's website. I'm confused. All I posted were the overview, table of contents and two quoted reviews. This is the content the publisher and editors provided to me to post. What did I do wrong and how do I rectify it so the book is listed on Wikipedia? thank you, Jess

 * Do you have evidence that the publisher gave it away to be freely used anywhere? And are you implying that you are working on behalf or at the direction of the publisher and editors? —C.Fred (talk) 03:16, 20 June 2017 (UTC)


 * If you are paid to edit, you are required to declare this on explicitly, stating who pays you. See Paid-contribution disclosure for more details. As for the other part of your question, Wikipedia cannot accept text that is copyrighted. While it's possible to donate text for use on Wikipedia, the better way is to use your own words when creating articles. You might want to use the article wizard next time.
