User talk:ArleneChristina

Welcome!

Hello DayakarBrao, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I've noticed you may be trying to create an article in one of our sandboxes - please be aware that these are cleared periodically and are only to be used for editing tests. You might want to start working on a draft instead:

• Your first article
• The article wizard

You may also want to take the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit The Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome! -- samtar ^{talk or stalk} 17:53, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:DayakarBrao/sandbox

A tag has been placed on User:DayakarBrao/sandbox requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please note that Wikipedia is not a free Web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.

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".

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from 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 article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

Please do not write about yourself

Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at B Dayakar Rao. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Please login when editing

Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits to B Dayakar Rao while logged out. Making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow the use of more than one account or IP address per person. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello DayakarBrao, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to B Dayakar Rao has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• 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 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 designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk 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 can, but please follow the steps in 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) 21:46, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to B Dayakar Rao, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Melcous (talk) 12:33, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

Conflict of interest editing

Hello, DayakarBrao. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Indian Institute of Millets Research, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
• instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.

Please also note that copying content directly from your organisation's website is not allowed and such content will be removed. Melcous (talk) 06:19, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

I have not written about my connection

My email used is my name. Im Arlene, i wanted to write about Indian Institute of Millets Research so i have written. Thanks

So are you saying that you are not B Dayakar Rao? If so, then you should probably change your username as you cannot have the name of another living person, as it makes it look like you are them. Can you disclose what your connection to B Dayakar Rao and the Indian Institute of Millets Research is? Are you the only person who uses the account? Melcous (talk) 06:58, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

I am new to editing and writing in wikipedia . I tried changing the user name but somehow I am not able to do that. Please guide me.

And I am Arlene Christina, an Senior research Fellow (student), I worked on a project for my thesis at Indian institute of millets research. I was just interested to write about the institute as there are wikipedia pages about ICRISAT and other Indian Insitutes which was interesting.

This account is handled by only me.

Thanks.

Thank you for your explanation. A few things, when you leave a message on a talk page like you did above, please "sign" by adding four tildes (~ this symbol) at the end. As a research student at the Institute you could still be seen as having a conflict of interest, so please be very careful about including content that could be perceived as promotional or not neutral. Copying content from other sources, like you did from the Institute's website, is not acceptable.

You can change your user name by completing this form, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. Thank you, Melcous (talk) 09:43, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

Thanks. I have requested name change. I will write the facts without plagiarism. Please keep the page and I request you to not delete it.
