Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Lukasvdb99, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to List of terrorist incidents in January 2019 have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. 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 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 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. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:08, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

March 2019
Hello, I'm Melmann. I noticed that in this edit to List of terrorist incidents in March 2019, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Melmann (talk) 18:47, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

July 2019
Hello there. I noticed you edited my entry in the terrorist incidents for July 2019 abd changed "attack" to "arson" in the case of the self proclaimed Antifa militant who made an attack on an ICE facility armed with incendiaries and a semi automatic rifle. You only wrote that you "improved" the article, which is a bit vague for other people to understand. What definitions of (a) attack (b) arson are you working with to come to the conclusion the entry should be changed? The chap was going to set off an explosion with a propane tank when he was shot. Seems to go beyond arson to me. Jeff1948a (talk) 08:35, 16 July 2019 (UTC)


 * It doesn't belong in the article - it would need to be mentioned at Domestic terrorism in the United States first to start. Secondly, it was not carried out by the Antifa movement - please see my edit summary. Doug Weller  talk 09:00, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

Revertions
Good evening Lukasvdb99, I want to ask why you reverted my edit in the List of terrorist incidents in June 2020. Why did you delete my entry? Greetings, --Sokrates2987 (talk) 17:39, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, you’re the one who reverted my edit first. So I just brought it back. Lukasvdb99 (talk) 17:43, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Yes, that wasn't right but i reverted it because you deleted my edits without a reason. I would like to know why you deleted my entry (Ambush, shooting on 8th June).--Sokrates2987 (talk) 08:06, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

I deleted it because I think it’s not notable when only one man got injured in an attack. Incidents like this happen a lot in DRC. But I put your contribution back in the list. Lukasvdb99 (talk) 08:15, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

I can understand that. However, incidents with only injuries or low casualties were also not deleted. Also, If you think something is not notable which I added, just write something on my talk page, I'm always open for a discussion :)--Sokrates2987 (talk) 08:56, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Career stats table at Andrei Rațiu
Hi. Last month, you added a career statistics table at Andrei Rațiu but you didn't include a reference. Could you please add one? Robby.is.on (talk) 13:26, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Deliberate omission of facts
Your recent revert comes on false reasons, "how can Boko Haram release a video of the kidnapped boys when they haven't kidnapped them?" Based on your past edits, you seem to have been clearly involved in terrorism articles. If you haven't leant by now, fake claims are not new. Sometimes media falls for it hook, line, and sinker. If you read the Boko Haram claims kidnapping of hundreds of Nigerian students despite its title doesn't confirm who the speaker (claimed to be Shekau in the audio itself) is or any proof for claims that Boko Haram was responsible. A Reuters article said it was purported and one of the victims said they were told repeatedly to claim they were Boko Haram. Sometimes the same media orgs have claimed the group were behind it.

Regardless of that you have reverted me even when I cited appropriate sources. That is a wrong thing to do and if you had tried to read up more on the kidnapping, you would know there's no site trying to verify the audio and has been noted it would mark an expansion in Boko Haram's attacks. It must be your duty to verify information from the sources cited or other sources on the internet, others don't have to convince you. Unless you have any evidence of the officials lying and there's no reason there seems they need to in this case, it's inappropriate to doubt them. Dismissing it because media orgs or some messages isn't correct way either because they were personally involved in negotiations. LéKashmiriSocialiste (talk) 12:45, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
