Avoiding copyright problems

Hello, and welcome. Your addition to Non-bank financial institution has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia 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 a cited source. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Wikipedia: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.
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 without attribution. If you want to copy 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. —Caesura ^(t) 20:44, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your addition to Non-bank financial institution has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder.

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. —Caesura ^(t) 15:02, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation

Greetings Hendrick Chan! I am FeralOink. I reviewed your most recent article submission, Banking Sector Competition.

I also noticed quite a collection of AfC issues here, on your talk page. Your subject matter choices are worthwhile and appropriate for Wikipedia! I encourage you to peruse the recommendations left for you, as they are VERY sensible. I did not notice any evidence of copyright violation in your Banking Sector Competition AfC, but I did not look for any. Here were my own suggestions regarding your most recent AfC:

This article STILL needs major re-work. I am personally very familiar with the subject matter. I have an MBA from the Wharton School. I have studied economics at Swarthmore College. I have worked for major money center banks. I read FRB economic research and Liberty Street Economics blog by FRBNY. I also read BIS and OECD reports. I fundamentally agree with what is stated here. Yet there are passages that, after a second AfC review, continue to be dreadfully opaque e.g.

"According to new studies, evidence shows that competition by itself does not necessarily lead to instability, but with higher likelihood in countries with lower levels of foreign ownership, weak investor protection, generous safety nets, and weak regulation and supervision."

Without sufficient context, this makes no logical sense. How can there be generous safety nets if regulation is weak? Who is paying for it? Are you referring to Greece under the EU? Or something else entirely? Also, the references as provided are inadequate. "World Bank GFDR report" with no year or page number is not sufficient. Nor are "Last Name, First Initial, year, title", with no page numbers or anything else, sufficient as references from books. There should be an ISBN, page number or a quote of the supporting passage included in the in inline reference itself (there is a field for that in the cite book and cite web and maybe even cite news and periodicals templates). As a reviewer, I should not need to chase all this information down myself for you. As a Wikipedia reader, I DEFINITELY should not need to chase this information down myself! My critique and comments are not intended to be harsh nor dogmatic. Ideologically, I approve of the existence of banks, free markets, competition and sensible regulation. I like the OECD, the World Bank etc. This is a worthwhile article. I want it to be a Wikipedia article- it is appropriate subject matter! It needs to be improved according to my recommendations though in order to be appropriate as encyclopedia content. Please try to make the language and sentence structure less opaque as well. This is not merely for my sake, but according to the guidelines for reading accessibility per Wikipedia.

Thank you for your efforts here, and please let me know if I may be of further assistance to you. --FeralOink (talk) 15:03, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Financial Depth (Size)

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 Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Financial Depth (Size) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://econ.worldbank.org/WBSITE/EXTERNAL/EXTDEC/EXTGLOBALFINREPORT/0,,contentMDK:23268788~pagePK:64168182~piPK:64168060~theSitePK:8816097,00.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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.
