User talk:Papadistef

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Christian Distefano
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Christian Distefano, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://losmovies.com/actor/263464/christian-distefano-filmography.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 10:10, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Christian Distefano
Hello Papadistef,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Christian Distefano for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. LS1979 (talk) 10:23, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Copyright
If the material is published at IMDb, then it is copyright. Copyright does not have to be registered - it ia automatic on publication. Publication can be as a book, as a page online, or even by printing out from a printer. Once it's been given an existence like that - it's copyright. For a long time, the USA was behind most of the rest of the world in this, and great problems were caused. However, they've now caught up and copyright is automatic. Wikipedia is copyright - every writer on it has copyright in every one of their edits. However, by clicking the 'Save' button you license your contribution under Creative Commons CC-BY-SA 3.0 and the [[GFDL. This means that anyone, anywhere may make use of the material, including modification and commercial use, subject only to acknowledging Wikipedia as the source. Material that is copyright already is not licensed in this way and cannot be used here. Now, referencing and notability. Please be aware that being IN a film or play is not necessarily STARRING in it, and that Wikipedia cannot be used as a reference to support notability. Referencing for notability must be by reliable independent sources WP:RS to show that the subject passes WP:NACTOR (in this case). Peridon (talk) 15:11, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
