Your submission at Articles for creation: Serena Bortone (September 23)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by MurielMary was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Serena Bortone and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Invalid citation

Hello. Regarding your edit Special:Diff/1122187582 in Arabs in Europe, a URL that does not show the data "613,800" is not "perfectly fine" per Wikipedia:Verifiability. The URL you cited: https://web.archive.org/web/20190228151603/http://www.media-citizenship.eu/images/stories/pdf/Amsterdam_national_focus_group_report.pdf is empty, only saying "Buy this domain." To make sure, here is the archive.today snapshot of that page: http://archive.today/OqDPV showing the same empty "Buy this domain." Also note that Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a reliable source, so whenever copying numbers or citations from another page, first verify the source with your own eyes. -- Wotheina (talk) 07:23, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Reverted

Hi Deusestlux. I have recently reverted one of your recent edits to the article Eva Kaili. I have started a discussion on this revert on the talk page of the article in question. Please join the discussion if you believe the edit should not have been reverted. To avoid an edit war, please do not make the same changes to the article again until consensus has been reached in the talk page.

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia and happy editing! Jo Jc Jo^{Talk💬Edits📝} 12:38, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit War Warning

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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; read about 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 you 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into Sabines. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 22:11, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Deusestlux! Your additions to Proto-Villanovan culture 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. 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.
We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
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 either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
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 described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

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, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 20:41, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Serena Bortone

Hello, Deusestlux. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Serena Bortone, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 21:03, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Serena Bortone

Hello, Deusestlux. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Serena Bortone".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 20:47, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ancient Rome etc.

When you revert someone (in this case User:Nikkimaria), please explain why--and in some detail. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 16:58, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

September 2023

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Ancient Rome. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Drmies (talk) 20:45, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stop re-writing my stuff

Write your own paragraph and stop re-defining my sentences and deleting my sources. I get it, you have some weird gripe with words containing "European," but that's your own problem and not an actual justification. Nobody calls them "Spanish-like." If you want to mention that Etruscans were closest to modern Spanish people, and are also closely related to Latins, citing Posth, then by all means do so, *elsewhere*. Probably somewhere discussing the genetic origin of Romans, and not the demographic change via immigration.

And Latins are closest to modern Spanish, yes, but only a little bit moreso than modern French and North Italians. They are pretty much smack in the middle. Now, if you look at Aiken's heatmap, the story is very much different. Hence probably why they used "European," and not "Spanish-like" or "Western European." So using the latter is already probably drifting too far from the original meaning. But going by Raveane's "Western European" and Posth's "Southwestern European," we may find a middleground with these terms. MrThe1And0nly (talk) 13:02, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you have added Creative Commons licensed text to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Genetic history of Italy. You are welcome to import appropriate Creative Commons licensed content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism § Compatibly licensed sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any Creative Commons content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. MCE89 (talk) 11:06, 4 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

November 2025

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing certain namespaces ((Article)) for possible plagiarism and copyright violation.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:00, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Deusestlux (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Hi I was still editing the article Chandman when my PC inexplicably crashed and I couldn't complete the work. Now that I've finally bought a new PC, I'm sad to find out that I've been banned for violiating copyrights. I want you to know that this was an accident and it will never happen again. Thank you. Deusestlux (talk) 22:11, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

If you are making edits so fast and furious that you are careless with copyright issues, you will need to remain blocked to prevent the project from being put in potential legal jeopardy due to your copyright violations. We would rather that you slow down and make copyright-compliant edits than make copyright violations that you (or others) have to fix later. 331dot (talk) 09:26, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

(Non-administrator comment) Hi Deusestlux, if you look above you can see that lots of editors have been trying to get you to stop doing this for over a month, but you carried on anyway. This is a collaborative project and we must communicate with each other, see WP:Communication is required.

Have you read through the blue links other people have provided in those earlier notices, to understand what you did wrong and why you were blocked? What will you do differently next time? Blue Sonnet (talk) 01:13, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Have you seen how many changes I've made in the last few months? Of course there is the risk of "copying" some sentences among hundreds that one writes. Of course, over time I went back to reread and modify them to make them harmless. This time I had problems with my PC and I couldn't go and fix them in time.

Deusestlux (talk) 06:42, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly as @331dot said.

Wikipedia absolutely cannot have copyrighted material on it - even if it's only there for a minute, just being in the edit history is enough to cause legal problems.

Everyone's a volunteer and it's not really fair to expect other people to notice and/or fix the problems you've caused because you can't or won't take the additional time to edit in line with policy.

The time you ”save” by editing quickly then has to be spent by another person, except it takes two or three times as long for them to verify that it's a copyright violation in the first place, then they have to go and fix it.

Your five minute edit ends up taking half an hour and two people - the second of whom could be doing literally anything else to improve Wikipedia.

Overall, your edits take more volunteer time and put Wikipedia at risk of being sued for copyright infringement - please understand that you're not helping Wikipedia, you're actively harming it. Blue Sonnet (talk) 12:12, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Deusestlux, the way to avoid copyright problems is simple - do not copy-paste content from elsewhere into Wikipedia. Just don't. There are exceptions for limited direct quotation, directly attributed in the article, enclosed in quotation marks, and properly cited, but otherwise you need to read the source, and summarise it in you own words. Copy-pasting and then altering a few words is insufficient to avoid breaching copyright, and even if the material isn't copyright, copy-pasting and then making minor changes is WP:Plagiarism which isn't permitted either. Write in your own words, or don't edit at all. AndyTheGrump (talk) 14:18, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I do want to make sure it's clear that you're only blocked from editing articles directly. You may still make suggestions and edit requests on talk pages, as long as you don't use copyrighted material there either. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 14:12, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
