Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Kahidan! Your additions to Keeping Up with Lizzie 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. 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.
 * We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
 * 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 either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Donating copyrighted materials.
 * 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 described at Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation.

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, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 13:52, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

Taxobox parameters
Hi, should, as a minimum, have taxon to specify the target taxon. If this is the same as the page title, then name isn't needed, and the page title will automatically be italicized. See Telamona scalaris after my edit as an example. Peter coxhead (talk) 09:25, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Got it.
 * I'll try to do that in some other pages. Kahidan (talk) 09:30, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Telamona praealta moved to draftspace
Thanks for your contributions to Telamona praealta. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:38, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Complete
Please ensure your taxonomy articles are complete. I've been going around fixing up a bunch of little things like putting the first use of the article title in bold, ensuring genera and species are in italics, adding a few basic categories, and adding a References section. I do a few more things beyond that, but those are the things I think you should be doing before moving on to the next article. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:29, 14 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Qiyangiricaniidae is a perfect example of where you could have put just a small amount of effort into completing the draft instead of moving on to the next one. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:23, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Heteronotus is another where you missed the mark on getting the minimum edits done. Please take a little more time to complete your work. Wikipedia has no deadline. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:44, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
 * And you've made another edit to Heteronotus that is not in keeping with our standards. I'm going to issue a templated warning below... - UtherSRG (talk) 14:09, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

disambiguation titles and consistency across Wikipedia taxonomic articles
Hi, Kahidan. I haven't had a chance until today to get caught up on things, but I see that within the last few weeks you've undertaken a lot of article creation, especially in the Auchenorrhyncha, a group I do research on. On the whole, these new articles are positive contributions, and mostly well-done, though there are a few things about the technical side of the articles that you are doing in a manner inconsistent with other taxonomic articles in Wikipedia. I see that UtherSRG has already left you one note, and I can add another: when creating an article for a genus, if it needs to be disambiguated, then it is a general practice to use disambiguation titles that convey a relatively precise idea about what group of organisms one is referring to. The use of "XXXX (genus)" is very strongly discouraged, because it could be any organism in any kingdom. The use of "XXXX (insect)" is likewise discouraged, because this does not offer much precision, given that there are several hundred thousand insect genera. In particular, if you look at the existing articles that are disambiguations for Auchenorrhyncha, you will see that they use very precise titles, such as Aphrodisias (planthopper). Bhandara (leafhopper), Cacama (cicada), etc. - as such, for the new treehopper articles, I have used "XXXX (treehopper)" as a consistent disambiguation for these articles, in parallel with the other groups of Auchenorrhyncha, and I hope you will follow this example in the future. Peace, Dyanega (talk) 18:21, 19 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for information. I'll try to apply this to later articles Kahidan (talk) 01:22, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Heteronotus. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. UtherSRG (talk) 14:10, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Unblock
Even though it seems to be the end, here's the full story: My first account (Imkaidenlol) is an old account I made a year ago, i showed my friend (Hloass) and he created an account to join (Aglofwa), he used the school computer for this I think. After the school year ended, we became inactive as me and my friend went on vacation. When school came back, I remembered about Wikipedia and created a new account. Around January, We reminded my friend about editing Wikipedia and he created a new account. He created his new account in the new school computer, which I think was the same computer where the user Kolamms was created. My friend got his editing style from me as I taught him how to edit wikipedia and shared my interests with him. We never intended to make sockpuppets nor abuse our other accounts, I hope this explains everything. Thank you. --Kahidan (talk) 12:50, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
