[[File:Control copyright icon.svg|30px|alt=Control copyright icon]] Hello Julia.cmcf! Your additions to [[:Stanley J. Forrest]] have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyrighted]] content without evidence that the source material is in the [[Wikipedia:Public domain|public domain]] or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a [[WP:COMPLIC|suitably free and compatible]] copyright license—”to request such a release, see [[Wikipedia: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:
*”’Limited quotation:”’ You may only copy or translate a ”small” portion of a source. Any [[Wikipedia:Quotations|direct quotations]] must be enclosed in double [[quotation mark]]s (“) and properly cited using an [[Wikipedia:Inline citation|inline citation]]. More information is available on the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Acceptable use of text|non-free content page]]. To learn how to cite a source, see [[Help:Referencing for beginners]].
*”’Paraphrasing:”’ Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information ”in your own words”. Following the source’s wording too closely can lead to [[derivative work|copyright issues]] and is not permitted; see [[Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing]]. Even when paraphrasing, you must still [[Help:Referencing for beginners|cite your sources]] as appropriate.
*”’Image use guidelines:”’ In most scenarios, only [[c:Commons:Licensing|freely licensed]] or [[Wikipedia:Public domain|public domain]] images may be used and these should be uploaded to our [[c:Commons:First steps|sister project, Wikimedia Commons]]. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|non-free content criteria]]; [[Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide]] may help with determining a file’s eligibility.
*”’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. Please see [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]].
*”’Copying and translation within Wikipedia:”’ Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia]]. For translation, see {{section link|Help:Translation|Licensing}}.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

Hello, Julia.cmcf. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, “DIAMM Publications“.
In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 22:36, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi. I’ve seen you changed Benedicta Ward’s article to say that she died. In order to do that, you need a source, just as you’d need a source for a statement made in a journal article or a term paper, etc. Ideally an article or obituary would be added to the article. However, if you have another source, we may be able to use it. Just so you know, word of mouth doesn’t work. If this is a very recent death, just wait a day or so until the obituary is published, and then update the article. I’ll be requesting help with the article because 3 users have tried to change it without sourcing and that’s not good. Thank you and ping me or go to my talk page (it’s in my signature) if you have any questions. Have a nice day. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 19:08, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
