Félix González-Torres - removed prose copied from a press release

The text I added was taken from a press release that is available elsewhere online, and I noticed that the preceding quote is also material copied from another website - why is that allowed to remain in the article? Does it not also violate of Wikipedia's copyright policy? Thanks! Botsponson (talk) 21:37, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

I didn't remove the press release content because it violated copyright. It was a quotation, and short quotations are allowed. It was just my opinion that the gallery's own press releases is not a third-party independent source. Their purpose is to sell tickets, so they are not going to publish neutral unbiased information. At your suggestion, I will look for and clean the remaining copyvio from the article. — Diannaa (talk) 22:25, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, just a question here re: this comment about neutral, unbiased information from museums. I totally understand where you're coming from - and in the case of the discussed article, there are a lot of bigger issues with the way it's constructed and even cited. You are certainly correct that museums have to draw in audiences, but I'm a little concerned by the way you phrased it, because it seems to be implying that museums simply cannot be unbiased sources of information on artists that exhibited at their institutions. Is that what you're stating here? Museums are the primary engine for the scholarship and exhibition of modern and contemporary art - museum in this context meaning traditional public museums that do not sell art (even if they have "gallery" in the name), as opposed to commercial galleries which represent artists and sell art. Again, context is important and the case here seems clear-cut if you're talking about the quotes that were sourced from MoMA or another museum (quoted text from museums that laud or over-describe an artist are not really useable, unless contextually necessary and framed as the opinion of the curator/museum), but your rationale as stated here could easily be applied to a wide range of other sources that originate with museums, not just press-oriented materials. Catalogue essays in books published by museums for instance, one of the most important sources for biographical details of lesser-known artists and scholarly analysis of an artist's style, could be read under this rationale as unusable. Context is obviously key there, too: if a curator/art historian makes a sweeping claim about an artist's importance or other subjective analysis in such an essay, that would need to be identified as such and directly quoted/named. But the idea that museums can't publish "neutral unbiased information" about people whose work they've shown feels like a pretty wild claim. I am not trying to be nit-picky here or anything, and I'm grateful for your work to help clean up this specific article. I'm just a little nervous by the idea that you may have used this rationale in other instances where there's clear reason to use a museum source; in many cases museum-derived sources are the only solid sources for specific biographical information and thorough stylistic analyses of artists, especially for historical artists who simply never received broader sustained coverage until they were older. Thank you for your time! 19h00s (talk) 23:45, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

I don't feel strongly about it either way to be honest. Go ahead and re-add it if you like. — Diannaa (talk) 01:25, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Copyright material

It is not copyright material, it was rephrased. It was originally from wikipedia article. It is mirroring of wikipedia in an unscrupulous website. This is not copyright violation. Now I have to do double work. And why on earth you remove references cited by me? I am not editing for fun, this is serious amount of time. Pls paste the material in your talk page as a reply to this message and references that you removed from Meherabad. I will rewrite.Fostera12 (talk) 15:27, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

please paste it here soon.Fostera12 (talk) 15:51, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

I did check the page history of Meherabad and did not find it. Did you copy it from an old revision of Amartithi? If so, you should have said so in your edit summary. In fact to do so is required by the terms of our license.

When you copy from one Wikipedia article to another, you need to provide attribution. This is done by saying in your edit summary that the material was copied, and where you got it. Please have a look at this edit summary for an example of how it is done. Please let me know if you have any questions, or have a look at WP:Copying within Wikipedia for more information. Sorry for the mistake. — Diannaa (talk) 17:10, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Yes took it from old Amartithi article. But I rewrote most of it. Thank you for your support. Fostera12 (talk) 02:13, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Copyright material in Buddhist origins section of Jagannath

The book is in public domain, published in 1960. How can it be copyright content? Khinkida (talk) 17:24, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

The place to start is the Commons:Hirtle chart. the book is a Work First Published Outside the U.S. by citizens of foreign nations or U.S. Citizens Living Abroad. Publication date is 1962. The book was published in India, without compliance with US formalities. In order for it to be in the public domain, it would have had to have been in the public domain in its source country as of URAA date, which is 1996 for India. The author, Mayadhar Mansingh, died in 1973. In India works are protected by copyright for 60 years from the date of death of the author. This means that the book is protected by copyright until 2033 and was not in the public domain on the URAA date. The last column states the work will not be in the public domain until 95 years after the publication date. This would put it in the public domain in 2057. So I won't be able to restore the content.

By the way, we are required to add attribution when copying from public domain sources: simply add the template {{source-attribution}} after your citation. Please do this in the future so that our readers will be aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself, and that it's okay to copy verbatim. Thanks, — Diannaa (talk) 01:23, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Welcome to you too!

Hello! Thank you for the warm welcome, and I truly appreciate the guidance and efforts to maintain the integrity and copyright compliance of Wikipedia's content. I'm delighted to be part of this vibrant community. I wanted to clarify that my contributions, specifically the edit to the Dua Lipa page, come from a unique position where I'm directly working with Madame Tussauds New York. As part of my role, I have obtained all necessary copyright approvals to use content from Madame Tussauds' website and associated materials. These approvals ensure that the content I contributed complies with Wikipedia's copyright policies and is available under a suitable free license for use on the platform. Given this context, I kindly request if you could consider undoing the deletion of the content I added, or if possible, restore it so that I may review and make any necessary alterations to align with Wikipedia's standards and requirements. This would greatly help in enriching the Dua Lipa page with accurate and authorized information, contributing to the knowledge and appreciation of her fans and Wikipedia users alike. Thank you again for your understanding and assistance in this matter. I look forward to collaborating closely with the community to ensure the information on Wikipedia is both accurate and compliant with all legal and copyright standards. PedroOReal (talk) 15:36, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello again,

I wanted to follow up on our previous conversation regarding the edit to the Dua Lipa page on Wikipedia.

Dont need anything from your side actually, I have already taken the time to review the content I contributed, with a particular focus on ensuring that it is factual, concise, and fully compliant with Wikipedia's guidelines and copyright policies. This review process was undertaken with the utmost care to respect the platform's standards and the importance of providing reliable information to the community.

Given this careful revision and the assurance that all content is backed by the appropriate copyright approvals through my work with Madame Tussauds New York, I kindly ask for your cooperation in not removing the contributed content without prior communication with me. If there are any concerns or areas that require further clarification, I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to address these directly before any action is taken to delete the content.

This approach will help in maintaining the integrity of the information on Wikipedia, ensuring that it remains a valuable and accurate resource for everyone. I believe in the power of collaboration and dialogue to achieve the best outcomes, and I'm committed to contributing positively to this community.

Thank you for your understanding and for considering this request. I look forward to any future interactions and to continuing to support the Wikipedia community in any way I can. Thank you for the attention, best regards PedroOReal (talk) 16:01, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your interest in working on Wikipedia. There are a couple of problems with your submission. You cannot post copyright material on Wikipedia even if you are the copyright holder or have their permission, unless special licensing permissions are in place. That is because Wikipedia aims to be freely distributable and copyable by anyone, and all content must have the appropriate documentation in place before that can happen. Please see Wikipedia:donating copyrighted materials which explains how it works.

The second problem is conflict of interest. Writing an article about your own organisation or that of a client is strongly discouraged, as it is difficult to maintain the required neutral point of view. According to our terms of use, paid editors and people editing on behalf of their employer are required to disclose their conflict of interest by posting a notice on their user page or talk page. I have placed some information about conflict of interest on your user talk page. — Diannaa (talk) 22:41, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

And the third problem is that running their response through [1] shows it is AI generated. Doug Weller talk 11:16, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

I have cleaned up some of their additions to articles but I just don't have time to do them all. — Diannaa (talk) 13:00, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Copy Right Math Equation in Tax increment financing

Hello Diannaa!

Was attempting to replicate the math ( Tax Levy / Tax Base = Tax Rate ) of how Tax increment financing increases taxes from Quigley's Tale of Two Cities: Reinventing Tax Increment Finance page 29 table 11 on the Tax Increment Finance page. I referenced the Authors webpage - is this a quote issue ? I could change the name of the variable names, or do I just need to call out the information is from the author in the sentence instead of just referencing the citation ? https://www.tifreports.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Tale_Two_Cities-Quigley.pdf I am leery of altering the math.

Cheers! LongestTV (talk) 19:22, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

The problem is that all the descriptions are identical to the source. You can see the extent of the problem if you view the CopyPatrol report and click on the iThenticate link. I don't see how you can re-word it into your own words in the present format, which is a table. Is there a way that you can provide our readers of a prose description of the concept without all this copying? If not, we can't keep it, so sorry. — Diannaa (talk) 22:37, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Rewrote the section and found a couple of .gov sources and a news paper article that reference the same math. Do the two .gov references give more leeway ? Mike Quigley the county commissioner when he wrote Tale of Two Cities: Reinventing Tax Increment Financing had his document hanging on House.Gov that I was able to pull from the wayback machine https://web.archive.org/web/20141229061321/https://quigley.house.gov/sites/quigley.house.gov/files/migrated/images/user_images/gt/stories/reinventingTaxIncrementFinancing.pdfand found the same math in Kenneth Nordtvedt Montana House testimony https://leg.mt.gov/content/Committees/Interim/2015-2016/Revenue-and-Transportation/Meetings/Nov-2015/nordtvedt-tif-dark-side.pdf LongestTV (talk) 00:19, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

The fact that you found these documents at a .gov website does not assure us that they are in the public domain, because works of the US federal government are in the public domain, but works of the individual states are typically not. But everything looks okay from a copyright point of view, because the only overlap appears to be the quotation from Nordtvedt. — Diannaa (talk) 12:47, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Copyright

Hi there, I think you don't quite understand copyright: protected are creative products, NOT factual or scientific statements, especially given that I modified them. Look up Copyright and then re-instate them. Quote: "Copyright is intended to protect the original expression of an idea in the form of a creative work, but not the idea itself" (from the aforementioned Wikipedia page. Do you understand what that means? I hope you do. Thanks. Peteruetz (talk) 23:26, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Granny already knows quite a bit about eggs. — Diannaa (talk) 23:27, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Apparently not. Do your homework before you vandalize pages here. Another option is to TELL authors if you think there is an infringement. That gives them a chance to fix it. Because cases like this are ONLY a matter of rewriting. Thanks.Peteruetz (talk) 23:29, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, but since there's only a handful of people working on copyright cleanup and a high volume of cases to be assessed each day, discussion of each individual violation is not practical.

On Wikipedia, good faith edits are not considered to be WP:vandalism. If you wish to get a second opinion, please consider asking one of the people on this list. — Diannaa (talk) 00:06, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

New article: Volodymyr Sirenko

Hello User:Diannaa, I have just created a brand new English article for Ukrainian conductor: Volodymyr Sirenko as part of the Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month 2024 drive. I started it from scratch and have been extremely careful with the referencing. I moved the page from my user draftspace to the Mainspace earlier today. I did all of this before I became aware that there had been an attempt at an article in 2016 and that you nominated it for speedy deletion. Obviously I would not want this to happen again! My concern is with the photograph I have used, which I obtained from Wikicommons. I have assumed that it was ok to use that photo, partly because it was on Wikicommons, but also because it is currently in use on the other language Wikipedia articles, the Ukrainian one and the German, in particular. Is this the same image that caused the copyvio issues back in 2016? Please let me know as I can remove the image. Thank you. SpookiePuppy (talk) 09:31, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello SpooliePuppy. The 2016 version of the article was deleted because all of the prose was copied from this page. Yours does not match that webpage at all, so it's okay. The photo is okay too, as it appears to have been taken by the uploader personally and not copied from somewhere else. — Diannaa (talk) 12:06, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Splits of major articles might be controversial or contentious. The first step is to gain consensus on the talk page. There's detailed instructions at Wikipedia:Splitting. Why do you think this article needs to be split? is the first question you should ask yourself.

Cornelius Benedictus has added a lot to this article. Do you use Who wrote that? Anyway, see [2], Some of that is his. Doug Weller talk 15:01, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Most of the overlap is a giant quotation from a public domain source. — Diannaa (talk) 15:09, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, which is the public source? And are you saying there is no copyvio? Doug Weller talk 07:23, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

This document is public domain, being from 1883. I don't see any copyvio. — Diannaa (talk) 11:00, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

April 2024

A recent edit of mine on Jean-Rodolphe Perronet removed by you in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. I can't accress my edits on the article as they are locked somehow.I cannot see the changes I made that triggered this warning, so I am somewhat disadvantaged in responding to your complaint.

I take pride in the number of my contributions to Wikipedia over the past eleven years. I searched my talk page to find my last "Warning". I couldn't find it. I remember somewhere in the past, 2017, 2018?... I got a copyright warning. This "third warning" seems draconian... Risk Engineer (talk) 12:13, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

The revisions containing the copyright material were hidden from view under under criterion RD1 of the revision deletion policy, and that's why you can't access them any more. There was a paragraph starting "He was responsible for a number of canals, ..." that matches content on page 133 this document. — Diannaa (talk) 12:58, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Good afternoon and hello Diannaa

Hello Diannaa, I made a mistake for quoting An AllKPop report regarding Limited quotation and Paraphrasing, sincerely yours, Valenzuela400 (talk) 07:52, 14 April 2024 (UTC).

Copyright

Can you explain me why you literally removed all of the content for “copyright” ??? Prady1 (talk) 00:02, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

The content you added was a match for material in this document. The photos you uploaded were also present in that paper. Copying someone else's work is a violation of our copyright policy. — Diannaa (talk) 00:06, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Quotes

Hi, I saw that you removed literally all quotes from Ancient North Eurasians, but I am not sure if that is correct. These quotes were used to verify the content. Is the main problem based on the respective copyright of the papers or something else? Because for example this paper is[3] 'Open Access' and "licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License, which permits use, sharing, adaptation, distribution and reproduction in any medium or format, as long as you give appropriate credit to the original author(s) and the source". As such I want to ask for the exact reason. Thanks! Regards – Wikiuser1314 (talk) 08:44, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) From what I can see, theres both non-free and cc licensed sources where the quotes were taken from (more non-free ones, then cc ones). The quotes for the correctly licensed ones can probably be readded (if Diannaa agrees), but the non-free ones should stay removed. Nobody (talk) 09:10, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

I see, thanks. Than I will later reinclude the correctly licensed ones (if Dianna agrees). Regards – Wikiuser1314 (talk) 09:38, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Quotations inside citations are allowed, but this example seemed excessive to me, particularly since your edits seem unlikely to be challenged. I have no objection to adding back the compatibly licensed ones. The remainder will still be there in the page history if you ever need to refer back to them. — Diannaa (talk) 09:54, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

OK thanks for the clarification! Regards – Wikiuser1314 (talk) 09:56, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
