User talk:NoMuppetsEver

Hello Muppet.

I am concerned that you're not taking the time to understand Wikipedia site policies and guidelines concerning creation and sourcing of article content. The bit you just re-added about the NY State grant is WP:PRIMARY sourced and there is no secondary independent publication or citation of it to indicate that it is noteworthy encyclopedic information. As you may know, there are hundreds of thousands of individuals who receive funding in the form of grants or other stipends, and this is not in itself an indication that WP:WEIGHT should be given this kind of thing in an encyclopedia. This article is almost entirely sourced to such references and very well may not satisfy Wikipedia's WP:NOTABILITY standard for our articles. Please review the links I have included in this message. If this article cannot be supported with suitable references and content, it may be deleted.  SPECIFICO talk 14:57, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

Dear Specifico, There are also thousands of MacDowell Fellows in the world, and thousands of artists in the collection of the NYPL, yet those sources remains untouched. That the NYFA revision is important data. Only 20 out of 5000 applicants recv the NYFA grant within their category annually. Kindly leave this revision alone.

 * Please sign your talkpage comments with 4 tildes as I demonstrated in my talk page note to you. Those others should all be removed, in my opinion. You may have noticed that I tagged them "citation needed" like this to give you or others a chance to find an independent secondary reference to establish their significance. No,  we can't leave bad content, or even this entire bad article, intact simply because you ask. Please read the links I offered about Wikipedia policy and guidelines.

Capetta article
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

I have twice removed WP:UNDUE content that is cited to a primary source. You have ignored the edit summaries that explain the removal and stated that you "have no idea why" the text has been removed. Please undo your reinsertion of this text and find secondary reliable source references.

I have also asked you to explain how you have acceess to a private communication to Ms. Cappetta that you uploaded and are citing as a reference for this edit. What rights do you have to upload this document? It is at any rate a primary source and is not an appropriate reference for this article.

Please read the warning above and read the policies and guidelines that will explain standards of editing and editor conduct on Wikipedia. Thanks.  SPECIFICO talk 03:46, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello NoMuppetsEver, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Lola Kirke 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. (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) 19:01, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Marion Belanger


A tag has been placed on Draft:Marion Belanger requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.marionbelanger.com/bio. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted 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.

Notice RE: Thomas Roma and other BLP articles
It appears that you have persistently attempted to remove valid content and to add disparaging content to the Thomas Roma article. Please move on.

This notice is not an accusation. It is an required annual renewal of a standard notice. The purpose of this notice is to remind you that, should a pattern of disruption or BLP disparagement become evident, Arbcom has provided for sanctions.
