Removal of copyright material
[edit]Hello. Thank you for your edits to Wikipedia. I'd like to let you know that I have removed copyright information you recently added to Claremont serial killings and moved it to the talk page for discussion/reworking. Please note that, according to Wikipedia policy, such text needs to be "written in the author's own words" prior to use, and that the copying of text from other sources is taken seriously. Thanks. JabberJaw (talk) 08:05, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for letting me know JabberJaw (talk). Will revise. --Acmeism.Data (talk) 08:10, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Hello again. I have checked the text again, and according to the "plagiarism report" it is still problematic. Please check this link for the report. Please also check the link I used above about copying text. Remember that the text needs to be "in your own words" and not just a paraphrase (minor word changes) of the copied text. The simplest way to do this would be to get a piece of paper, read the website, then write the info in your words without looking at the website again. Please try again, otherwise I will need to remove the material again. Thanks. JabberJaw (talk) 08:49, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks for letting me know. Really good advice. Will do it now--Acmeism.Data (talk) 09:00, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Hi, My edit no longer comes up as having any copyright issues. Another part of the wiki article does, but it's been there before my edits. Thanks again. --Acmeism.Data (talk) 09:08, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- OK - I have refreshed the Detector, and there is still an 18.7% similarity detected, which is a lot better that the 50%+ of the first edit, but still top of the list (the next one is 10.7%). I will go in and re-edit the remaining problems. Thanks. JabberJaw (talk) 09:15, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Are you sure it has to do with my edits? The Detector is showing me problems with the text about one of the victims--Acmeism.Data (talk) 09:18, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- AFAIK, as I have only been looking at the paragraph added. Anyway, I have copyedited the section, so now it is fine. Thanks again for working to improve your edits! JabberJaw (talk) 09:32, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
License tagging for File:Theo Hayez Australia Disappearance.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Theo Hayez Australia Disappearance.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 14:31, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

[edit]
Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Maria Ressa, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Matthew hk (talk) 09:41, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks. I thought my edit was minor (I did not add a new section or introduce a huge new topic). Will read the minor edit article to understand the concept better. --Acmeism.Data (talk) 09:45, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
Mandatory disclosure
[edit]Hello Acmeism.Data. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Acmeism.Data. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Acmeism.Data|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. ☆ Bri (talk) 14:24, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Bri (talk) I'm absolutely not a paid user and have never been paid for edits. I mostly go about news sites to try to add new information to whatever article I think could use additions. I'm curious what in my edits made you think that I was being paid? If you'll look at my edits you'll see they always reference to articles that just came out at the time of my edits. It's very easy to verify. I don't dedicate A LOT of time to this, so my learning curve is probably off, but I think I'm doing decent. For example the English page I created recently for a Brazilian singer was because she popped up on my Spotify and I was looking for information about her online. When I could only find a page in Portuguese, I thought it'd be nice to translate it. Anyway, I'd like you to tell me why you thought I was being paid and what you'd like me to do to resolve this. Thanks Acmeism.Data (talk) 16:38, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- Acmeism.Data to be honest I don't remember when one of your edits popped up on my radar. I was probably being over-sensitive to edits on certain topics that seem to attract a lot of PR agents, and your areas of interest happen to overlap. It might have been John Singleton (Australian entrepreneur). Don't worry about it. Sorry, I usually do a more thorough check before flat out asking that question. ☆ Bri (talk) 22:45, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- Bri (talk) Thanks. Interesting. Don't even remember who this guy is. Looking at my edits I think I just added that he sold a radio station after it was reported on The Australian or The Guardian. Anyway, thanks for letting me know and I'm glad we got it cleared out. :) Acmeism.Data (talk) 07:11, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
