Welcome to Wikipedia, Trucks7op!

I'm Tesseractic and I want to welcome you to Wikipedia!

Wikipedia is an amazing community adventure which is constantly being edited. There are many different versions of Wikipedia for many different languages, and the English version has 6,909,633 articles which are written by volunteers like you and me! We even have a newspaper, The Signpost, to keep you up to date with news and new developments. Making your first steps on Wikipedia can be hard sometimes, so if you need any help, don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page or ask a question on your talk page by clicking here. Someone will help you soon!

Wikipedia has five pillars which summarize Wikipedia's fundamental principles:

Women in Red

Hi there, Trucks7op, and thanks for all the biographies you've been creating, including several of women. I look forward to many more. I'm impressed with your creations which I've just been assessing. Many of them have deserved a C rating. It's good to see that in addition to translations, you have started to create biographies yourself. When you feel ready to create biographies of women, you might find it useful to look through our Ten Simple Rules. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 13:56, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for May 25

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Taller Torres Garcia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Juan Pardo. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 05:57, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Trucks7op! Your additions to Kenneth Gyang 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, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's elegibility.
Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. For translation, see Help:Translation § License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Nobody (talk) 05:57, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Electrical engineers by nationality

Thanks for your hard work on deorphaning a page. I appreciate it! I noticed that you added Category:Electrical engineers by nationality to Christopher Neyor with this edit[1]. Please don't add container categories to pages, categories that end in "by nationality" mean that that category contains a all the different Electrical engineering categories for many different nationalities. If the right nationality doesn't exist, you should instead add the page to Category:Electrical engineers. One good strategy is to look at the category to see what other pages/categories are in it.

Thank you for the tip, I appreciate you catching that error. ~ Trucks7op (talk) 02:46, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

June 2024

Hello, I'm Avgeekamfot. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Fez, Morocco, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I removed your addition because it was sourced to Simple Flying which is not a reliable source.
