User talk:Loyalists1

Welcome!
Hello, Loyalists1, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Chief Paul Bunnell, U.E., may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type help me on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Drikulaeri (talk) 17:01, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Chief Paul Bunnell, U.E.


A tag has been placed on Chief Paul Bunnell, U.E., requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Drikulaeri (talk) 17:01, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Loyalists1, 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. Drm310 (talk) 17:07, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Koasek Abenaki Tribe, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Yuchitown (talk) 21:08, 11 April 2022 (UTC)Yuchitown

Hello, Loyalists1. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Koasek Abenaki Tribe, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.

Also, please read WP:SELFPUBLISH to learn more about why self-published sources cannot be used on Wikipedia. Yuchitown (talk) 21:01, 14 April 2022 (UTC)Yuchitown

Hello, I'm Discospinster. I noticed that you recently removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ... disco spinster   talk  16:50, 25 November 2022 (UTC)


 * This site has all the info incorrect. We are the Ko’asek (Co’wasuck) Traditional Band of Sovereign Abenaki Nation, with a 501/c3 non-profit part called Koasek of Turtle Island Inc. WE ARE NOT A VERMONT TRIBE OR ARE WE THE KOASEK OF THE KOAS BAND. they are in Vermont and state recognized. This page looked like scramble eggs. It needed serous accuracy.

 * That was my mistake, which I've fixed. User:Loyalists1, instead of just deleting material without explanation, it's best to explain problems with an article on the article's talk page. Yuchitown (talk) 19:11, 25 November 2022 (UTC)Yuchitown
 * I did not know this. It was my first involvement with this. Sorry. Loyalists1 (talk) 20:45, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
 * No worries. Every article has a tab on top that says "article." Immediately to the right will be a tag that says "talk," and that's a place to discuss issues with the article. Thanks for alerting me to the problem that I had conflated two different groups. Yuchitown (talk) 20:51, 25 November 2022 (UTC)Yuchitown
 * I will look closer next time. Many thanks. Loyalists1 (talk) 20:54, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
