Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Purple Pwnie, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, especially your edits to Gordon–Conwell Theological Seminary. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

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 read the above policy. Do not add content about living people to Wikipedia without a reliable source, per WP:RS. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 19:23, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So if I sourced it with a Web page would that be fine? Purple Pwnie (talk) 19:28, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Reliable sources are defined at WP:RS. There is some stuff you need to learn in order to work here productively - the welcome message above explains everything. Jytdog (talk) 19:54, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You know you don't have to act like a jerk like you're through supreme protector of Wikipedia. Purple Pwnie (talk) 20:19, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I can't answer the question you asked - some websites are reliable and some aren't. I am telling you what you need to do if you want to be productive. If you want to continue being frustrated (and by the way if you continue reverting at the article about the seminary you are likely to be blocked from editing; that is not acceptable behavior here), you can ignore me and ignore the information in the welcome message. You will do as you will. Good luck. I won't be responding further. Jytdog (talk) 20:28, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Bishop Todd Atkinson when Admitted to ACNA's College of Bishops 2019.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement of https://www.viaapostolica.ca/news/bishop-todd-welcomed-into-the-anglican-church-in-north-america. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy 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 "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.
