File:Control copyright icon.svg Hello AussieSurplus1510! Your additions to :Police body camera 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.{{#ifeq: | 1 |}}
• 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.{{#ifeq: | 2 |}}
• 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) 16:21, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

File:Stop hand nuvola.svg Your recent editing history at :Sexual harassment in the military 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. — Diannaa (talk) 23:55, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed that your recently put interlanguage links on Japan Air Self-Defense Force articles. Please remember to use the {{tl|interlanguage link}} template for interlanguage wikilinks, as suggested on H:FOREIGNLINK. This template provides a redlinked English link and a Japan blue link, hiding the Japan link if the English redlink becomes blue when the article is created. Avoid using :ja:, as it may give the impression that the English article already exists. Ckfasdf (talk) 03:05, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

File:Copyright-problem.svg Your edit to :Division (military) has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for information on how to contribute your work appropriately. For legal reasons, Wikipedia strictly cannot host copyrighted text or images from print media or digital platforms without an appropriate and verifiable license. Contributions infringing on copyright will be removed. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. — Diannaa (talk) 11:45, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

File:Information.svg Hello, I'm Swatjester. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, :Mk 48 machine gun, 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. Thank you. ⇒SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 07:57, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

File:Information orange.svg Please do not add or change content, as you did at :Mk 12 Special Purpose Rifle, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ⇒SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 07:58, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Line (software), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page FACTA. 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) 19:54, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

:Particularly MOS:SECTIONCAPS. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 03:28, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

File:Information.svg Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in :Soviet invasion of South Sakhalin, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 03:28, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

:Also, there are quite a few undefined citations at that article. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 03:33, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

@AussieSurplus1510 Hi, I noticed that you added two ref names: lineblog.2012-12-17 and lineblog.2012-05-23 on Line (software), back in November, but never defined them, as seen here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Line_%28software%29&diff=1259104186&oldid=1258375768.

I assume this was a mistake. Anyway, I'll probably remove these very soon, if they're not fixed, but please feel free to restore them with the full proper citation. Thanks - Winderz IoT (talk) 21:52, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Edit: As previously mentioned, your undefined ref names are also an issue in Soviet invasion of South Sakhalin Winderz IoT (talk) 22:00, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

File:Information.svg Hello, AussieSurplus1510. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Proxy punishment, 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) 15:12, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
