Welcome[edit]

Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Respect intellectual property rights - do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view - this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced to multiple reliable sources.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account or IP being blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! Yuval Y § Chat § 22:47, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the inconvenience, I guess you understand it was for protecting your copyrights. I bet if someone had been using your material without your permission you'd be offended. Yuval Y § Chat § 23:09, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Continued copyright problem with Dave Fry[edit]

Doctorhobomd, as was mentioned to you on the talk page of Dave Fry, Wikipedia cannot use copyrighted. Unfortunately, the article uses text copied from the this website which shows a 2008 copyright. You state that you are Dave Fry, so these are two methods which you can use to release the copyrighted text:

Replace the copyright notice on the original website with a note that states that re-use is permitted ''under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL), versions 1.3 or later and Creative Commons Share Alike (CC-BY-SA), versions 3.0 or later, under CC-BY-SA, versions 3.0 or later, or that the material is released into the public domain. Then leave a note at Talk:Dave Fry with a link to where we can find that note.
If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL and CC-BY-SA, and note that you have done so on Talk:Dave Fry. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for instructions.

I have replaced the template on the article and it should not be removed until this case is resolved. This case came due today at Copyright Problems (meaning it is supposed to be deleted), however, I'll relist it for another week to provide you with more time. You should also be aware that there is an additional problem for you with this article. Wikipedia strongly discourages individuals from writing about themselves. Please read our guidelines on conflict of interest. It will probably necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask me. — CactusWriter | ^needles 08:18, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you create an inappropriate page, such as Dino Mancinelli, you will be blocked from editing. Erik9 (talk) 04:04, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Dave Fry deleted[edit]

The copyright issues had not been resolved in what I deemed a reasonable period. Note what MoonRiddenGirl posted on the talk page:

OTRS wrote back on August 1st to tell the letter-writer of Ticket:2009073110056004 (only OTRS agents can see this letter) that the release was insufficient. There were directions how to verify. There has been no reply. The template is not to be removed until OTRS logs the permission above. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 21:37, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. - Jarry1250 ^{[ In the UK? Sign the petition! ]} 07:36, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Dave Fry deleted[edit]

I had sent the e-mail to the place I was told to send it. And it was fine. Now you're telling me that this is not true? Doctorhobomd (talk) 14:14, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
