User talk:Imakiraa

Welcome!

Hello, Imakiraa, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that you are creating Draft:Akira, which appears to be about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

AfC notification: Draft:Akira has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Akira. Thanks! JustBerry (talk) 07:43, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Akira

I know that creating an article draft, waiting for the draft to be reviewed, and receiving feedback on the draft can be a frustrating experience. If we work together, I am hoping that we will be able to make the process go smoother.

A primary issue with the draft seems to be that it does not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for music related articles. Also, your username "Imakiraa" seems to imply that you are Akira; you should know that even though autobiographies are not prohibited on Wikipedia, they are still strongly discouraged. An important reason for this is that creating an autobiography poses a concern regarding whether or not an article will meet Wikipedia's neutral point of view principle because of the conflict of interest involved with writing about oneself. I am sure that Robert McClenon, who had reviewed your article earlier, would be willing to discuss this further with you. Please know that fellow Wikipedians are here to help you.

I also wanted to remind you not to remove articles for creation draft comments, even if you may not accept or like them, as it hinders the reviewing process. I am appreciative of the fact that you have not done so since Robert's re-addition of the comments, but on behalf of fellow draft reviewers, I do want to make my request of not removing reviewer comments from the draft clear, particularly when attempts to make this request in the past have failed.

Additionally, a significant amount of text on the draft page (as it stands) has been copied word-for-word (plagiarized) from a copyrighted website. Even though I removed the plagiarized text here, I see that you have reinstated the text. I would kindly ask that you please put the text into your own words, as plagiarizing text material on a copyrighted website does not bode well with Wikipedia's guidelines.

I noticed you resubmitted the draft without making any significant changes since our conversation. I am asking that we continue our discussion here or on the article talk page, perhaps with Robert as well, as receiving multiple re-submissions with no modifications can be characterized as spam. Please feel free to pose any questions, comments, concerns. The Wikipedia Teahouse, to which you were invited above as well, allows draft creators, etc. to seek the opinion and guidance of fellow editors, particularly more experienced editors. The article reviewing process does take time and effort, so your patience is much appreciated. --JustBerry (talk) 12:21, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Userpages are not intended to read like or be articles. Because of this, I have blanked your userpage. Please see WP:FAKEARTICLE. --JustBerry (talk) 12:32, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Imakiraa, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Draft:Akira have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and 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 the 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 legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also 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. This also applies to your user page. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 13:54, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Akira

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 Draft:Akira, 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. Legacypac (talk) 14:22, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have deleted the draft, not just because of the state it was in when all the plagiarism and copy-pasted content was removed, but also taking into account the previous revisions. Writing about oneself on Wikipedia is strongly discouraged because it's very difficult to do so from a neutral point of view. Furthermore, at a glance you don't quite seem to meet Wikipedia's standards of inclusion either, so even some unbiased editor likely would be unable to write an article about you at this time. My advice is to focus on your career and not worry about Wikipedia; when you are successful enough, sooner or later a volunteer will write an article about you without you having to do anything about it.
