Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]Hello Earlymorninghenry, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to William 'Billy' Butler 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. OnionRing (talk) 04:00, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of On A Day Like This
[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 On A Day Like This requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.
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 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

- Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with On A Day Like This. 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 article. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Eternal Triangle
[edit]Hello Earlymorninghenry,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Eternal Triangle for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 06:34, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

- @Arthistorian1977: Any band releasing a '45 on Decca Records with a Harry Nilsson song does not meet the criteria for CSD A7. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:17, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
- Ritchie333 They may be are, but as far as I know, the author of the article can't remove the speedy deletion tag by himself, just argue the validity of it on talk page. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 12:25, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for pointing out my faux pas, I wont delete those messages in future. Still trying to work out the information kinks in creating the pages, not all information from that time period is available. Even some of the awards verifications have proven difficult. I will read a little more about criteria before attempting to add again.Earlymorninghenry (talk) 18:14, 4 July 2016 (UTC)earlymorninghenry
Categories
[edit]Hi Earlymorninghenry, not sure if you noticed this yet, but another editor has removed all the categories you added to the William 'Billy' Butler article.[1] When adding categories, please add ones that the subject belongs in. You added a bunch of album cateogories, but the subject of the article is a person not an album. The only articles you should add to album categories are articles about albums. You also added article to a category for filmmaker occupations, but again, the article is not about an occupation. I know you're new here, but categories can be very confusing, even to editors that have been editing for years, so your best bet here is to read WP:CATEGORY before adding articles to categories. A better understanding will help you avoid adding incorrect categories. If you need any help with this, feel free to ask me on my talk page. I don't mind helping. Cmr08 (talk) 03:45, 5 July 2016 (UTC) Okay thank you very much for the feedback. The Juno page doesn't go back that far 1992. again, thank Earlymorninghenry (talk) 03:54, 5 July 2016 (UTC)earlymorninghenry
Conflict of interest editing
[edit]Hello, Earlymorninghenry. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article William 'Billy' Butler, 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 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. Melcous (talk) 01:03, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
I don't believe that anything I did or wrote was biased. I made a mistake removing something, and I might have added some things initially that were deemed copywright even though I initially wrote that. But I can see your point. I also know that the Emmy link is considered verafiable and notable. I take note of your information and adhere the best I can. thank you . and feel free to add stuff yourself if you find more information. I have already encountered otheres who were more than happy to add and link other items. Earlymorninghenry (talk) 02:41, 6 July 2016 (UTC)earlymorninghenry
