Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]Hello TellusFan! Your additions to Barbara Ess 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 eligibility.
- 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. I realize much of the content was names of museums, but you need to reword what you can. Thank you. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 16:55, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the heads up. Looks like someone else working on that page has done the needed rewriting. I will be more careful in the future. TellusFan (talk) 15:41, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Jackie Curtis citations
[edit]Hi TellusFan. Thanks you for trying to help improve Jackie Curtis by adding citations to the article. Unfortunately, where you added the citations with this and this edit was causing the "Filmography" and "Plays (as playwright)" section headings to not properly display. Adding a citation to the same line as a section heading (for example, like == Section heading ==<ref>citation</ref>
) causes the software to not properly display the section heading; so, it's better to add to citation on a different line somewhere else within the relevant section (ideally after the content it's intended to support). I removed the two citations you added so that the respective section headings properly display, but you can re-add them if you want. If the citation is intended for all of the content in the section, you can add a brief descriptive introductory sentence to the beginning of the section and then add to citations after that. You can find the citations in the page history. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:01, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
