User talk:Toyota Corolla E140

File:Control copyright icon.svg Hello Toyota Corolla E140! 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. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. 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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Chaheel Riens (talk) 07:52, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

: If you're going to be uploading files to Commons, please take the time to carefully read through :c:Commons:Licensing because Commons only accepts certain types of files. For example, Commons doesn't accept any type of copyright license that places "non-commercial use only", "educational use only", "Wikipedia use only", "non-derivative use only", etc. types of restrictions on re-use. Commons host files not only for Wikiepdia, but for anyone anywhere in the world to use at anytime for any purpose, and all files uploaded to it need to be OK to use as such. The more familiar you're with relevant Commons policy, the less likely you're going to have problems with files being deleted. Commons and Wikipedia are sister Wikimedia Foundation projects, but they have their own respective policies and guidelines; so, you'll need to resolve Commons issues over on Commons. You should, however, be aware that Commons administrators are a fair amount of discretionary authority and they can deleted files (without warning) and block accounts (without warning) when they deem it necessary to do so. It's OK to make mistakes and many people do, but persons who end up repeating the same mistake over and over again, usually end up getting blocked from Commons. So, before you try and upload any more files there, you might want to ask for assistance at :c:Commons:Village pump/Copyrights first if you're not 100% sure that the file is OK for Commons. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:18, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

File:Ambox warning blue.svg Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Toyota Corolla E140", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because usernames that might be mistaken for a product name (e.g. :Toyota Corolla (E140)) are not really allowed per :WP:PROMONAME. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. {{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACENUMBER}}|3|{{#ifeq:{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|Toyota Corolla E140|}}}} -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:08, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

:You can resolve your username issue, by requesting a simple username change request at :Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple. If you proposed username is considered acceptable, it will be change not only Wikipedia, but only for use on Commons. If you want to keep your current username as part of a new username, all you might need to do is personalize it in some way. You can find out more about this at :Wikipedia:Username policy. If you plan to never edit Wikipedia again, then you probably don't need to worry about this; if, however, you plan on continuing to use this account, you will need to address this matter. It's better to do this sooner than latter because the longer you wait, the greater the chances are of your account being :WP:SOFTBLOCKed by a Wikipedia administrator as an inappropriate username. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:29, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

File:Information.svg Hello, I'm Chaheel Riens. I noticed that you made a comment that didn't seem very civil, so it may have been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. For reference, the issue is your edit summary of "Answered some questions that trolls needed" Chaheel Riens (talk) 07:54, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
