User talk:Xxxcatfishxxx

Welcome!
Hello, Xxxcatfishxxx, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as File:Just work.jpeg, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type help me on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Just work.jpeg


A tag has been placed on File:Just work.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a copyright violation&#32;of https://reptilesmagazine.com/peters-banded-skink-information/ and has no credible claim of fair use or permission. 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — 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.

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Xxxcatfishxxx! Your additions to File:Just work.jpeg 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. Please 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, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 01:23, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Efehrvurwfiw.png
Thanks for uploading File:Efehrvurwfiw.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 14:36, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

You have previously been told about uploading copyrighted images. You cannot upload copyrighted images you find on the web. If this happens again, you will be blocked. -- Whpq (talk) 15:19, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

November 2023
Hello, I'm Whpq. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Peters's banded skink, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 15:22, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Peters's banded skink, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. ''In particular, you need to add specific publications that support the statement(s) made, and not just general statements of books on reptiles, or lots of forums on the Internet. Note that Internet forums are also not reliable sources.'' Whpq (talk) 03:01, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi Xxxcatfishxxx, your edits to Peters's banded skink have been reverted again. Please read WP:NOTGUIDE for the policy on not including "how-to" style pet-keeping guides in Wikipedia articles. Repeated insertion of disputed text may lead to edit warring, something we all try to avoid. If you have any questions, you can ask them here. Loopy30 (talk) 13:36, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Peters's banded skink, you may be blocked from editing. Specifically, you are ignoring warnings to cease adding "how-to" guide material, overlinking, ignoring talk-page messages, and are now making threats in the edit summary. These are all considered as contrary to Wikipedia editing guidelines. You have now been reverted by four different editors, with a partial revert by a fifth. Before blindly reinstating this material, please slow down and take the time to read some of the links provided to you that explain why this is not a good idea. Loopy30 (talk) 04:13, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Peters's banded skink. There is a procedure to discuss contentious edits to Wikipedia called BRD. In a nutshell, if you make a Bold edit that is then Reverted by another user, we stop and Discuss the issue before reinserting the same material again. Failure to follow this can lead to edit warring which may result in the removal of your editor privileges. Please read these linked policies before continuing. Loopy30 (talk) 11:07, 6 December 2023 (UTC) There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.
