Cyberbullying Awareness

I believe this is a perfect section to add to the article. This will raise awareness to cyberbullying, give in site on effects, and you could talk about some common/on going cases. Trojan2023 (talk) 18:50, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback. I'm still trying to get this right. Lpsherman1219 (talk) 12:36, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Cybullying

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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Cybullying. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Cyberbullying. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Cyberbullying. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. —C.Fred (talk) 17:32, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

As noted above, we already have an article about cyberbullying, and we try to avoid having duplicate articles. Instead of deleting it, I moved your article to Draft:Cybullying, where you can continue working on it. - Eureka Lott 18:15, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Reverted edits on CyberBullying

1. Links to your sandbox are inappropriate for the main space encyclopedia.
2. Citations need to contain the full url/source so readers and editors can verify the content.
3. Law firms looking to drum up business and security blog/sales sites are unlikely to be reliable sources for an article, but with incomplete links it is impossible to evaluate these sources.

Please consider discussing your changes before making them on the talk page of the article Talk:Cyberbullying, so that other editors can assist you in proper formatting and identifying reliable sources. Slywriter (talk) 19:01, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Lpsherman1219! Your additions to Cyberbullying 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. I have removed again the stat you are citing as it is verbatim from the source. Please do not readd without putting into your own words. Again, I urge you to discuss on the article page instead of continuing with your bold editing. Thank you.

February 2023

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Cyberbullying, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Please don't add nonsense claims or fake references to Wikipedia articles. Thank you: bonadea contributions talk 21:11, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Cybullying

Hello, Lpsherman1219. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Cybullying".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗plicit 11:45, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
