About Editing The Article " Anglo "[edit]

Look here, I do not want to embroil myself in a edit conflict, but I think you should do more research on this topic and article the " Anglo ". There is clear evidence that the this particular prefix " Anglo " is derived from a Latin name Anglorum which means "English" and was the word used by the Romans to refer to the native English populace, even after the Romans left England in 410 AD. Here are some links, from which I took my sources: https://www.wordsense.eu/Anglorum/ https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Anglo-#English Check this source before my reverting edits Dinuwikian (talk) 09:43, 12 April 2023 (UTC)Dinuwikian[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 14[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Karl Philipp, Prince of Schwarzenberg, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Schwarzenberg. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Alfred the Great[edit]

If you'd like to change the main image at Alfred the Great, I suggest starting a discussion the Talk page. Your changes have been reverted by three editors now, which is a sign of disruptive editing. Please let me know if you have any questions at all. Cheers! Woodroar (talk) 13:15, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for reminding me. Dinuwikian (talk) 13:29, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright[edit]

Control copyright icon Hello Dinuwikian! Your additions to Robert Peel have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) 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.

  • 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. 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.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
  • 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 either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • 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 described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

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, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:12, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit-warring and copyright[edit]

With regard to your Wikipedia:Edit warring at Henry V and this edit summary, I was very explicit that: We can't just copy bits from copyrighted websites. See Wikipedia:Copyrights. Celia Homeford (talk) 13:44, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You also need to review Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing as you have closely paraphrased the Britannica article at Henry V. Celia Homeford (talk) 13:46, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On Editing The Article On Charles Darwin[edit]

The article on Charles Darwin needs much improvement as quickly as possible and therefore I suggest we transform the entire section about Darwin's life into Early life, Middle years and Later life. So if you don't improvements like these won't be needed please state immeadiately.
