[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|30px|link=|alt=Copyright problem icon]] Your edit to [[:Tram 83 (novel)]] has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyrighted]] material to Wikipedia without evidence of [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|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 [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''. See [[Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources]] for more information. <!-- Template:uw-copyright --> [[User:Wikishovel|Wikishovel]] ([[User talk:Wikishovel|talk]]) 14:43, 7 May 2024 (UTC) |

[[File:Control copyright icon.svg|30px|link=|alt=Control copyright icon]] Hello Agasarah! Your additions to [[:Palace of Desire (novel)]] have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyrighted]] content without evidence that the source material is in the [[Wikipedia:Public domain|public domain]] or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a [[WP:COMPLIC|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 [[Wikipedia:Quotations|direct quotations]] must be enclosed in double [[quotation mark]]s (") and properly cited using an [[Wikipedia:Inline citation|inline citation]]. More information is available on the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Acceptable use of text|non-free content page]]. To learn how to cite a source, see [[Help:Referencing for beginners]]. {{#ifeq: | 1 |</strong>}} |
|||
*'''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 [[derivative work|copyright issues]] and is not permitted; see [[Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing]]. Even when paraphrasing, you must still [[Help:Referencing for beginners|cite your sources]] as appropriate. |
|||
*'''Image use guidelines:''' In most scenarios, only [[c:Commons:Licensing|freely licensed]] or [[Wikipedia:Public domain|public domain]] images may be used and these should be uploaded to our [[c:Commons:First steps|sister project, Wikimedia Commons]]. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|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|Help:Translation § License requirements]]. |

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing.

{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Speedy deletion nomination of Tram 83 (novel)
[edit]
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Tram 83 (novel) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jan/07/tram-83-congolese-novel-wowing-literary-world-extract. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Fram (talk) 14:53, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
