Wikipedia and copyright[edit]

Hello Greenwhitedino, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Northern Eastern Sudanic languages 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. (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 the 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 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 the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also 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) 12:02, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I just adapted the data table and cited the correct source. None of the prose was actually copied. But if you think that's inappropriate, then I shall refrain for posting such information. Thank you for the notice. Greenwhitedino (talk) 16:34, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Atlantic languages[edit]

Hi Greenwhitedino! First I want to tell you my appreciation for your work to improve the quality of articles about African languages and language families. Keep it up!

I want to ask you about your opinion on the article Atlantic languages. The current open sentence of the article states that "Atlantic" is an obsolete subgruop of "Niger-Congo", but in the bottom parts, the article deals with the modern reduced version of "Atlantic" (mostly due to recent edits from you and me), which is a valid subgroup. This is potentially confusing for our readers. My idea is to rewrite the lead by removing the word "obsolete", and add a statement like "the exact scope of the Atlantic subgroup is the object of current research". The southern border would then be Sierra Leone, and mention of Temne must be removed from the second paragraph, or qualified as obsolete. The section "classification" could then be divided into "Traditional classification" and "Modern proposals". What do you think? –Austronesier (talk) 12:39, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Austronesier! Yes, this is actually what I have been thinking of doing. It is a perfectly sound plan, and I have no objections. Greenwhitedino (talk) 19:08, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings & a great weekend to you all.

Welcoming New Volunteers (25/06/2021)

We hereby want to officially welcome new volunteers who have recently joined the collaborative project and have volunteered to work in WP:NIGERIA. The arrival of new volunteers is often associated with the confusion of “what to do” on their part, it is then behoove of us to treat them with care, guide them, and protect them from the general pitfalls a new editor would most usually fall into. We are also admonished to clean up after them if they err and encourage them, most especially when they are genuine editors with potential to do good work not just for us, but for the community as a whole. Once more, we hereby thank all new editors who have volunteered to work here and hope they enjoy their stay here.

Join State House of Assembly Elections in Nigeria Contest[edit]

You're specially invited to join the State House of Assembly Elections in Nigeria Contest from 6 December 2021 to 6 January 2022.

This new project will be created to explicitly reassure and inspire experienced and new wikipedia editors to create articles on state house of assembly elections in all the 36 states of Nigeria. Starting from 1979, 1983, 1992, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011, 2015 and 2019, Nigeria has conducted state house of assembly elections. But, none of these articles exist on Wikipedia and this new project will seek to categorically solve this problem once and for all.

The following prizes will be awarded at the end of the contest.

Overall winner - Tecno Spark 8
Runner-up - Tecno POP 5
Second runner-up - Oraimo 27,000mAh Power Bank

CONAECDA moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, CONAECDA, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hi Dimadick, I nominated Levantine Article for FAC. As you contributed to Modern South Arabian languages in the past, I thought you could be interested in reviewing this nomination. Thanks for any help you can provide. A455bcd9 (talk) 08:20, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
