Hello, Birnevigaudi. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:53, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:BEST 25th anniversary logo.png

Thanks for uploading File:BEST 25th anniversary logo.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:44, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:25th anniversary logo.png

A tag has been placed on File:25th anniversary logo.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

License tagging for File:The map of EBEC 2014.pdf

Thanks for uploading File:The map of EBEC 2014.pdf. 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 the "Edit" tab at the top of the 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) 13:06, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:BEST 25th anniversary logo.png

Thank you for uploading File:BEST 25th anniversary logo.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:40, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

neutrality policy and copyright

I have reverted your recent edits to Board of European Students of Technology for serious issues with two core policies.

First, we cannot accept content copied from other websites without verification that these cites are licensed compatibly. The entire "history" section you added is printed at [1], where it is published under full copyright reservation. If you are connected with the organization officially in such a capacity that you can release that copyright, please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the process. Please do not restore any of that material without following that process first. To protect Wikipedia and copyright holders, it is necessary to block accounts from contributing where content is repeatedly copied without such verification.

Second, as you have been previously advised, content on Wikipedia is intended to be neutral. Any statement that is not neutral, such as praising or criticizing BEST, must be sourced to a reliable source that is not connected to the entity. You cannot include content like "Besides the BEST Courses, the Events on Education and Engineering Competitions which enhance, improve and complement the formal University education, the organization also has a service to bring the companies closer to the students enabling young and fresh talent to access important and international-focused opportunities. " on Wikipedia. This may be appropriate for publication on official documents, but not here.

Content like "Through the above mentioned partnerships, BEST is able to provide a professional infrastructure for students to upload their CV, check different offers by our company partners and apply to different career and study opportunities." will never be appropriate here. Wikipedia does not have "company partners". We are not here to serve as your website to promote your business interests. We are here to neutrally summarize what reliable sources say bout notable entities, not what such entities say about themselves.

Again, please review WP:COI. Non-compliance may also lead to your account being blocked or the article being locked so that it can no longer be edited. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:05, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
