The_institute_for_insterstellar_studies
Dear Editor I seem to have inadvertently violated someone's copyright in developing a new page - http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/The_institute_for_insterstellar_studies&action=edit&redlink=1 As the editor who spotted this, can you enlighten me as the nature of the violation. I am preparing the page on behalf of the Institute and its executive director, Kelvin Long, and its important to me that I get this right As evidence of my previous (modest) contribution to Wikipedia please look at - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_of_Computer_Science - which I originated and has had subsequent contributions from distinguished computer scientists including - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_T._Kirstein http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Coulouris_(computer_scientist) Hope you can help, John — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jid (talk • contribs) 18:45, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello there John,


 * The issue with this page was that it was for most a word-for-word copy of several other websites, which in turn meant it was a copyright violation since these sites didn't explicitly state that the content was released under a license compatible to Wikipedia (Such as CC-BY-SA or GDFL). Note that it is a bad idea to copy pages word for word regardless of copyright status, since websites are rarely written in an encyclopic writing style. For reference, some of the pages in question were:
 * http://www.centauri-dreams.org/?p=25084 (No specific copyright claim)
 * http://i4is.org/about.html (Marked "Copyright 2012 © I4IS. All rights reserved.")


 * Note that copyright is automatically granted on written content whether asserted or not, and that the copyright status decides if content can be used on Wikipedia, regardless of who owns the copyright. So even though the i4is belongs to the article's subject the content cannot be used directly as-is. Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 21:07, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 13
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Internationale, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Scottish (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Jid. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jid~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:41, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 14:25, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Broken Homes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rivers of London. 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.)
