Editing Wikipedia articles
[edit]Wikipedia articles follow the Wikipedia:Manual of Style and its associated guides which have been developed by the Wikipedia community in order to make Wikipedia articles easier to read, higher quality and generally consistent in appearance.
I have reverted the edits of User: 99.240.111.186, which have not been in the Wikipedia style, for the following reasons:
- Dates should no longer be linked in Wikipedia, unless there is a really good reason to do so. See WP:CONTEXT#Date
- It is incorrect to link plain English words or to link the same thing over and over. These links, like date links, add clutter to articles without providing useful information. See WP:OVERLINK.
- Links should not be made to articles that do not exist yet unless you plan to write an article for those subjects really soon. Books published in a foreign language are a good example of subjects about which there is likely never going to be a Wikipedia article (unless you write one yourself). These “dead links” appear in red, and make the article more difficult to read.
- Headings must follow “sentence case”, and not “Title Case”. In sentence case, only the first word and proper nouns (like the names of people, places and organizations) should be capitalized. Don’t capitalize all the words as you would in Title Case. See WP:MOSHEAD.
- External sources (i.e., not other Wikipedia articles) should be provided for any information that is added. See Wikipedia:Verifiability.
- Articles should be written in a neutral tone. See WP:NPOV. Just report the facts, and let readers draw their own conclusions. We do not have to tell the reader that the subject of the article was a good person or a great scholar. If the person’s actions and words show this, then the reader will draw that conclusion for her or himself.
I will continue to revert changes that violate the Wikipedia Manual of Style or other policies, and will protect the article to prevent these changes if necessary. Ground Zero | t 14:26, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
Copyright problem
[edit]This article was previously deleted as a copyright problem with content duplicating [1]. It was tagged as a potential copy-paste in April 2011, and duplication detector verifies substantial runs of similar text. Copyright concerns also exist in various points of history (including currently) to [2] and [3]. The article needs to be purged of any copied or closely paraphrased content, if permission cannot be verified. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 22:59, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
Copyright problem removed
[edit]Prior content in this article duplicated one or more previously published sources. Infringing material has been rewritten or removed and must not be restored, unless it is duly released under a compatible license. (For more information, please see "using copyrighted works from others" if you are not the copyright holder of this material, or "donating copyrighted materials" if you are.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or published material; such additions will be deleted. Contributors may use copyrighted publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with these policies. Thank you. Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:35, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
