Possible copyright violation(s)[edit]

Your contributions are appreciated. You are very welcome here. However, I have encountered possible copyright violation(s). Some or all of the content you added in a recent edit to GNA University appears to have been copy pasted from this source and has been removed.

Please remember that you must write in your own words. We cannot copy and paste from other websites. If I have made an error, please accept my apologies.

For further information, please read Wikipedia:Copyright violations. If you have questions, please ask. Best wishes, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 07:48, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]


Thank you Miss Anna. There maybe a few lines which are from there, but the names of faculties and departments where not from the link. I would highly appreciate if you can add those lines. Manik.sarna (talk) 08:14, 19 June 2017 (UTC)Manik.sarna[reply]

June 2017[edit]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at GNA University, you may be blocked from editing. Theroadislong (talk) 09:48, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Information icon Hello, Manik.sarna. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article GNA University, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Chris Troutman (talk) 09:48, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at GNA University. Jim1138 (talk) 09:52, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

June 2017[edit]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at GNA University shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Theroadislong (talk) 09:53, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello "Theroadislong", as you can read the article mentioned about the GNA University, which was a very general and basic article about the information of departments of university and general history, was erased all together. I undone the edit because it simply doesnt promote any institute. I belong to the same area as of GNA University and Lovely professional university. So that is why i am updating a few content of these, from the information i got after visiting them. I hope this would help and put the previous content on page please. Please guide me for further changes. Regards Manik.sarna (talk) 10:02, 20 June 2017 (UTC)Manik.sarna[reply]

The content that you are adding is overly-promotional and unsourced. See WP:NOTPROMOTION and wp:verifiability Jim1138 (talk) 10:05, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Manik.sarna: At this point, do not edit the article anymore. Discuss on the article's talk page what you'd like to see changed. Chris Troutman (talk) 10:07, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Chris Troutman. I Would certainly like to request the edits. Please guide me for the same. Would highly appreciate this.

See wp:talk page guidelines and wp:edit request Jim1138 (talk) 10:17, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Sure. The talk page for that article is Talk:GNA University. You can easily find the talk page from any article by clicking on the talk page tab. At that talk page, create a new discussion section and describe which information you want to add and why. As described above, the text that you want added must be your own words and not copied from somewhere else. Also, you need to provide independent and reliable sources to serve as references for that content. Other editors can discuss these changes you propose and work out a mutually-agreeable solution. Chris Troutman (talk) 10:22, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Users, I have initiated the Talk page for the GNA University. Kindly look into the matter. I would appreciate the efforts you all made.

Your recent edits[edit]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 10:32, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest using the wp:template {{request edit}} Please read the wp:edit request (ER) page. Formally, one uses the format "please change X to Y". Without the ER template, few will notice your request. The template alerts others of its existence.

Also, you might want to look at other similar-topic articles and, if they are of high quality, copy their style and format. See wp:Manual of Style Jim1138 (talk) 11:00, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you are nearby GNA University and have a cell-phone or camera, consider taking a few good photos and uploading them to commons: Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 11:02, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your username[edit]

Hi! You wrote on my talk-page "I am a freelance photographer and stay in same area where GNA University and Lovely professional university is located". If that is so, you should almost certainly not be editing under the WP:REALNAME of someone who is, according to The Tribune, a faculty member at the institution – please see WP:IMPERSONATE. If by some coincidence you have the same name as that person, please clarify this on your user page; otherwise, please change your username (go here to do that).

I'm reminded of Marmion (poem). Chris Troutman (talk) 12:16, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]


For my username, it reflects my full name, and i was a guest faculty for the GNA University to conduct a workshop for students there. This is my real identity here. And also you can search for other universities as well, you ll find references for them as well. I conduct workshops dear.

If you were employed by the University then you must announce your conflict of interest (as required by Wikipedia's terms of use) on your user page. Undisclosed paid editing can result in a block. Chris Troutman (talk) 14:38, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think there is no COI in this case as i am not being paid by any of them. nor i am in direct contact with them, or hired by them. I am doing editing on my personal level. Manik.sarna (talk) 05:07, 21 June 2017 (UTC)Manik.sarna[reply]


Hi. You uploaded this image that says the author and copyright holder is GNA. Please explain. Thanks.

Pinging To editor Chris troutman:

Anna Frodesiak (talk) 10:50, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Anna Frodesiak: That the metadata of that file says that GNA owns the copyright indicates that the uploader is an employee of the university. I think Manik.sarna should be blocked for unambiguously violating the Terms of Use against undeclared paid editors. Chris Troutman (talk) 16:03, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Chris troutman. I think you are right. The image does not appear elsewhere where he could have gotten it according to Tineye. If he had found it somewhere at a site, would the meta have been scrubbed, or could it have remained. If the latter, then this could be a case of copyvio rather than contravening PAID. I'm leaning way toward blocking for PAID, though. Thoughts? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:25, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Anna Frodesiak: That was my suggestion. Regardless of whether the school paid them to edit, they haven't properly declared conflict of interest. I'd block them were it up to me. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:33, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Chris troutman, we agree. He is now blocked. His images:[1][2][3][4][5] are speedied. And don't hesitate to speedy tag commons images with such airtight rationales to spare the FFD nom page. Admins there always use commons sense and zap such files expeditiously. Thank you for your involvement in this matter. Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:54, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked[edit]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

You stated that you do not work for GNA University. However, search engines show a connection, plus you uploaded images with metadata "Author GNA" and "Copyright holder GNA" that do not appear elsewhere on the Internet. I think you are a paid editor who knew about the rules, failed to disclose, and instead said you were "...editing on my personal level...". Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:44, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
