Wellring

Welcome!

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:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Simplified 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 abuse of multiple accounts.
• 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; 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: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Wellring, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to National University Ostroh Academy 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 Wikipedia: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 Wikipedia: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 Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) 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.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• 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 the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• 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 in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 11:03, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

September 2019

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 19:17, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

Please also have a look at Wikipedia:Indentation which explains the guideline as to how to properly indent your posts on talk pages and user talk pages. There's further information on this and other related topics at Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#Layout. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk)

Film festivals

Please note that if an article is already in Category:Film festivals in Ukraine, then it does not also get added to Category:Festivals in Ukraine, Category:Festivals in Europe or Category:Film festivals. Each article only goes in the most specific appropriate subcategory, and does not get double-filed in all of the parent categories further up the same tree. Thanks.

Thank you. Wellring (talk) 07:31, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:

Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 37.73.203.155. Wellring (talk) 20:31, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

Accept reason:

I have nuked the block. It's not a webhost, it's a cellphone provider. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 01:05, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

The block was made on April 19th, but you have edited successfully since then. Has something about the circumstances under which you edit changed recently?(I don't need to know specifically) Is this the first time this has happened to you? 331dot (talk) 20:47, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

• 331dot, I first saw the block message just today. Now I am currently unable to edit Wikipedia. Until today I was able to edit Wikipedia and created two articles yesterday. This is the first time such a situation (block) has arisen. Wellring (talk) 20:59, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

Are you editing in a different physical location than previously, or using a different device? 331dot (talk) 21:26, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

331dot, I went out of town for several days. Thus I am editing in a different place using the same device but mobile hotspot. I don't think it is a problem as I use the same mobile hotspot once in a while. However, I will come back today or tomorrow.Wellring (talk) 05:53, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

The block has now been removed, so it should no longer be an issue for you. Best wishes to you 331dot (talk) 09:03, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Request reason:

I recently moved to another apartment and connected a new ISP, which assigned me a static IP. Today it turned out that I can not edit Wikipedia because the IP address (82.193.96.0/19) is blocked. However, my static IP address is slightly different. I've never edited from this address before. Thus, please grant me access to edit from the following IP address: 82.193.100.4. By the way, there is no problem with editing if I connect to the mobile Internet. Wellring (talk) 11:51, 14 June 2020 (UTC)

Accept reason:

Changed that block also. @Berean Hunter: I softened the block, not the first issue I've seen today on that range. Not sure if there is a proxy on that whole range. Feel free to bring to my talk as needed. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 22:10, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Dragon Capital (company)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Dragon Capital (company), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Atlantic306 (talk) 22:11, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Dragon Capital (company), a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Praxidicae (talk) 11:45, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Note

Hello Wellring, I've seen some of the many articles you've created and I wanted to let you a friendly note: there is a difference between Moldova(n[s]) and Moldavia(n[s]). In Wikipedia we use Moldova for the Republic of Moldova (1991–present) and Moldavia for the medieval Principality of Moldavia (1346–1859). I've seen you have mixed both in articles you've made like Ruxandra Lupu and Samiylo Kishka, so I just wanted to let you know. Also, please be beware with Romanian names, such as Rașcov or Ștefăniță, which you typed as Rashkov and Stefanitsa. That's all I wanted to say, thanks for your page-creating efforts. Cheers. Super Ψ Dro 14:46, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs

Thank you for your recent articles, including Ruxandra Lupu, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. This can be also done through this helpful user script: User:SD0001/DYK-helper. Let me know if you need help, _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:56, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages

Thank you for your recent articles, including Ruxandra Lupu, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:56, 4 June 2021 (UTC) _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:56, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 15

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Aina Aiba, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hibiki. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 05:58, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Biopharma LLC

The article Biopharma LLC has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I would like to renominate the article for deletion again, on the grounds of WP:G5. I agree that my SD nomination was too early. The only substantial edits to this page were by confirmed sockpuppets of Bodiadub and Yuraprox, and User:1sonng. I think that 1sonng is a sockpuppet of Yuraprox for reasons written in this SPI. (The said SPI had been closed because 1sonng hadn't edited for a long time.) If you disagree with my judgement of 1sonng, feel free to deprod. I do not think edits of any other users to this article are significant.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Nomination of Biopharma LLC for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Biopharma LLC is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Biopharma LLC until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.
