Hello SpringStreetUpdates! Your additions to Parliament House, Melbourne 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, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points: It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. – Iso chrone (talk) 10:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. Read about this at Non-free content in the sections on ”text”. Additionally, Help:Referencing for beginners offers guidance on how to cite sources.
 * Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words and structure it properly, adhering to the principles of paraphrasing. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources to verify the information and demonstrate that it is not original research.
 * Image use guidelines: We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. Any other images used on Wikipedia must be available under a free and open copyright license that permits commercial and derivative reuse.
 * Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. However, unlike many other sites that allow content licensing for site use while retaining non-free ownership, Wikipedia requires that content release be irrevocable, worldwide, and either into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Donating copyrighted materials.
 * Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without proper attribution. If you want to copy or translate content from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps outlined at Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation § License requirements.

 * thanks for this info, don't worry, I am just updating the outdated articles with accurate info that is cited. thanks tho SpringStreetUpdates (talk) 06:52, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @SpringStreetUpdates, not everything that is citable should necessarily make its way into an article. You need to be aware of policies, especially as they regard to living people. Tarnished<b style="color:#420000;">Path</b><b style="color:#bd4004;">talk</b> 07:26, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I am adding new information to Wikipedia and this includes facts on living persons so I use a citation to ensure the encyclopedia is accurate SpringStreetUpdates (talk) 08:49, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Not everything you've added is new. Some of it is covered by existing citations and the content you've added has been removed for WP:BLP policy reasons. You need to read those policies. <b style="color:#ff0000;">Tar</b><b style="color:#ff7070;">nis</b><b style="color:#ffa0a0;">hed</b><b style="color:#420000;">Path</b><b style="color:#bd4004;">talk</b> 10:06, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * The information you removed was a fact reported by several reputable mainstream media outlets. Removing this information goes against Wikipedia's purpose and it is questionable as to why an editor would seek to remove it. SpringStreetUpdates (talk) 14:00, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I've started a thread in the article talk page. Please discuss there. <b style="color:#ff0000;">Tar</b><b style="color:#ff7070;">nis</b><b style="color:#ffa0a0;">hed</b><b style="color:#420000;">Path</b><b style="color:#bd4004;">talk</b> 23:46, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
