Mirrors
Thanks for contributing to the article Agbor. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. Kuru  (talk)  15:20, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Mr Magnificient! Your additions to Southern Ijaw 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. 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.
 * 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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 18:47, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

September 2021
Hello Mr Magnificient, I've reverted your link of the term south-east in the article Anioma people. It's a well known term, one of the eight basic directions and I doubt many readers will find the link helpful. Gab4gab (talk) 20:25, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Thanks very much sir Mr Magnificient (talk) 20:28, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
 * You are welcome. I think your addition of Wiki-links is often helpful but in some cases you have gone overboard. Links should normally appear only once in an article. Be sure you are linking to the article you intended. In Delta State University, Abraka you linked to Delta State University which is located in Cleveland, Mississippi. I removed many of the links in that article. If you haven't yet take a look at three portions of WP:Manual of Style/Linking: WP:OVERLINK, WP:UNDERLINK, and WP:REPEATLINK. It is a lot to absorb.

Wow! okay Thanks very much for the corrections. In time I will be a pro Mr Magnificient (talk) 23:33, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
