Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Encyclopedia of World Problems and Human Potential, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless that text is available under a suitable free license. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:
 * Copying text from other sources
 * Policy on copyright
 * Frequently asked questions on Wikipedia's copyright policy
 * Policy and guideline on non-free content

If you still have questions, there is the Teahouse, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

 * Hi Diannaa -
 * Thanks for your message. I am an editor of the EWPHP as well as work at the UIA, thus I also take this seriously. I have entered my text into a plagerism tool and the only sentence I can find in the document you reference in this note:
 * " 14:20 −4,155‎   ‎ Diannaa  talk contribs‎ (remove recent unsourced additions. Some of it was copied from http://www.un-intelligible.org/projects/ecolynx/final%20report%20complete_2000.pdf )  thank"
 * that is the same is this:
 * "A vicious problem loop is a chain of problems, each aggravating the next, and with the last looping back to aggravate the first in the chain. Here is an example: Man-made disasters, Vulnerability of ecosystem niches, Natural environment degradation, Shortage of natural resources, Unbridled competition for scarce resources, Man-made disasters." (p. 1.11-79 from https://www.un-intelligible.org/projects/ecolynx/final%20report%20complete_2000.pdf)
 * Is this also what you found? If so, I did not know it was taken from this PDF as it is in the current Wikipedia entry (under the section: Encyclopedia of world problems and human potential project) that I am editing. How should I move forward?
 * In addition, much of the text I am using to update the current Wiki entry is taken from the Encyclopedia page on the UIA website, which is a text I wrote. Do you need proof that this was indeed written by me? If this is the case, how do I proceed?
 * Thank you,

 * Here is a link to the CopyPatrol report. Click on the iThenticate link to view what was found by the detection service.Thank you for your interest in working on Wikipedia. There are a couple of problems with your submission. You cannot post copyright material on Wikipedia even if you are the copyright holder, unless special licensing permissions are in place. That is because Wikipedia aims to be freely distributable and copyable by anyone, and all content must have the appropriate documentation in place before that can happen. Please see donating copyrighted materials which explains how it works.The second problem is conflict of interest. Writing an article about your own organisation or that of a client is strongly discouraged, as it is difficult to maintain the required neutral point of view. According to our terms of use, paid editors and people editing on behalf of their employer are required to disclose their conflict of interest by posting a notice on their user page or talk page. I have placed some information about conflict of interest below. — Diannaa (talk) 10:41, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, MmeEditor. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Encyclopedia of World Problems and Human Potential, 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, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the edit COI template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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. — Diannaa (talk) 10:42, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
