April 2017

You uploaded the file File:OllySholotan.jpg, with the licensing rationale that it was produced by YoungArts and that they release all images under a free license. However, there are mutliple problems with this. Firstly, there is nowhere I can find YoungArts publishing this image. Indeed, it does not appear to be available publicly anywhere on the internet. Secondly, YoungArts only release their media for non-commercial use. To be used on Wikipedia, material must be licensed under the CC-BY-SA 3.0 license or a compatible one. This means that the material must be available for use commercially as well as non-commercially. Since the image does not appear to have been published outside of wikipedia, it also fails to meet our policy on use of non-free media. Please do not upload non-free media to Wikipedia except in the specific circumstances where use of non-free content is allowed. Please also do not give incorrect or misleading licensing information on images. GoldenRing (talk) 14:27, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Zakatak, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of 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. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:43, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A page you started (UCLA Campus Events Commission) has been reviewed!

Thanks for creating UCLA Campus Events Commission, Zakatak!

Wikipedia editor Gaioa just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Indeed notable, but in desperate need of sources. No disaster until then though.

To reply, leave a comment on Gaioa's talk page.

Orphaned non-free image File:Ucla cec logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Ucla cec logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:50, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Olly Sholotan

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 Olly Sholotan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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.
