copy vio and other editing problems

edit

Bugnot,

Currently you are just copypasting sentences directly from sources without paraphrasing. This is not acceptable.You have been warned before not to do this. You cannot simply copy a sentence from a source a paste it like you did here. (an entire sentence from the hindu made it unaltered into the text)

And secondly the text you are adding is soapboxing. wikipedia articles shouldnt be telling people and goverments what they should be doing or not doing. For example take the text you added to Poverty in India

Overpopulation is a major cause of poverty in India, the world's second most populous nation with over a billion people, contributing towards mass unemployment and corruption in implementing poverty-curbing measures on a large-scale. Indian Government has failed in recent years to implement any effective measures to curb population growth. It is widely believed that a United Nations directive or some type of international regulation would help the Indian Government draw its attention towards this major issue because otherwise the Government of India is not focusing at all on this issue due to previous electoral concerns (see Compulsory_sterilization#India and The Emergency (India)).[1] If India's current lax attitude persists, UN researchers predict that by 2030 India will become the most populous nation in the world, with almost a third of the world's poor and unemployed. Significant efforts, like China's one child policy, are needed in recent times to prevent this from happening in India but a lack of will amongst Indian politicians and political parties has led to not any effective measures being implemented.

There are two problems where - malecontraceptives.org is not a WP:RS. I am sure you will be able to find a lot of newspaper articles and books to back up the same facts. So please dont use websites and blogs as sources. The second part says something like "X is needed, but there is no political will" as a fact. This is a opinion not a fact. There is no source to back this up and no attribution to indicate who is saying this. In short, your language is suitable for blogs and newspaper columns, but not for a summary style encylopedia. Here you have to add facts in short, neutral language and attribute opinions without stating them as facts.

note: i am not disputing anything about content, but the way you are presenting them. Please take my points into consideration while you add content in the future.--Sodabottle (talk) 04:00, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I will keep this in mind and usually from now onwards will either enter everything within quotes or change the language/words. Moreover, the point that I stated was what I believed was a universal fact and general public-opinion as mentioned everywhere in media and, thus, I didn't mention any reference/source specifically but if you insist I will try to do so from now on. Thanks for bringing these points to my attention. Regards--Bugnot (talk) 05:09, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

P.S. Of course, it's never my intention to bring Wikipedia to disrepute. I'm simply trying to help by bringing the facts to public attention. If you find any objectionable content, please simply delete it and kindly also notify me why you did that so that I may correct myself.--Bugnot (talk) 05:12, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I noticed you added text from a few sources into this article, such as here. I see a user above has explained to you the problem with copyright violations. I suspect many of your other edits to this article inserted copyrighted text as well. Please remove the text you know of to help the clean-up process.--NortyNort (Holla) 10:57, 4 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Your addition has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. —SpacemanSpiff 19:31, 4 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for repeatedly adding copyright violations despite multiple warnings over two years and at least two editors spending a lot of time helping you do this. On April 4 you were once again reminded and yet in your subsequent edits you have introduced copyright violations.. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. —SpacemanSpiff 19:41, 4 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
You can be unblocked if you show an understanding of the copyright policies. —SpacemanSpiff 19:42, 4 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

It has never been by intention to bring Wikipedia to any disrepute in any way. I know that I had been warned before regarding this but I was not aware that what I contributed later were copyright violations. If any editor/administrator had asked me to correct my mistake/s, I would have agreed to writing the contribution in my own words. I understand that you deem my contributions to be copyright-violations. Since I wish to be a genuine contributor to Wikipedia, I will comply with your regulations and laws. I will make sure that either I will quote the proper source using cquote tag (or quote it with reference) or I will contribute in my own words. If you wish, I will contribute only small or one-line quotations from copyrighted sources (with reference added) in order to comply with the laws. I have been a contributor for over two years and you would appreciate that I have made some genuine contributions as well. I hope you will keep this in mind while considering my request. I hope this will help and I will try my level best to comply with all the copyright and related regulations. Hopefully this will be sufficient enough. Kindly let me know your decision at your earliest convenience. Thank you!--Bugnot (talk) 14:55, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Seeing as you have been repeating the same problematic behaviour over a long period, you *have* been asked to stop doing it a number of times, and you have made the same promises before - why should we believe you this time? -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 15:29, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Okay, I will submit any questionable content (about which I'm not sure if it is a copyvio to a Wikiepdia administrator for prior review before actually contributing it. Please let me know if this would be sufficient enough. Wikipedia is free encylopaedia and I hope my right as a contributor will be respected. I will comply.--Bugnot (talk) 15:35, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I'm afraid you've rather missed the point. You need to show some understanding of what a copyright violation is and how to avoid adding them in the future. It's really not that complicated and there should not be a need for another user to review every single edit you make, you should be able to do it yourself. If you can't do that then you may lack the basic level of competence required to contribute here. That Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia is not the point, neither are your "rights." It's free as in it is free to use for any purpose you see fit, not free as in free to add anything you want to it. Your rights as a contributor most definently do not include the right to plagarize the work of others and pass it off as your own. Unless and until you can understand that you will have to remain blocked. Beeblebrox (talk) 15:47, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • How is this assurance of yours any different from what you said (above section) in April 2011 after which you again added copvyios, or after your discussion with User:Bigtimepeace when he spent an inordinate amount of time cleaning up your contributions (after which, you just reverted everything back to your copvyio versions). Why is this assurance any different? And you've already had many editors review your content and tell you not to do certain things, but it doesn't seem to have had any impact yet. —SpacemanSpiff 15:43, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Alright, I will comply. Now onwards, I will not submit any content directly from another website. If there is a need to quote something, I will write in my own words. If I think some content has to be quoted as it is, I will give due credit to the owner first and will also ask for his permission if need be. I hope this will be in compliance with your regulations and the laws and will be satisfactory to all. Sincerely,--Bugnot (talk) 16:24, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

You still don't appear to be near understanding how we handle copyright, and a quick few minutes of consideration here is clearly not enough for you to achieve the competence that the last 2 years of efforts have failed to lead you to. It's no good just *hoping* that what you suggest will be in compliance with Wikipedia policies - you need to spend enough time learning them to *know* that you are compliant. And "Alright, I will comply. Now onwards..." is still an empty promise seeing as you keep saying the same thing and then reneging on it. I'd strongly suggest you wait until the investigation at Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/Bugnot is concluded (and try to help with it if you can), then spend a good amount of time reading all of our policy pages about copyright. And then sometime in the future, perhaps come back and try to persuade an admin that you really do understand copyright. Anyway, I can't review your latest request as I have already reviewed one, but I really don't see this one as being any different -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:16, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Youngest self made billionaire ever

edit
 

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 Youngest self made billionaire ever, 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.
