use of the minor edit flag at Pressure_ridge_(ice)

Hi Evgenii.salganik! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. DoctorMatt (talk) 19:05, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your tip, DoctorMatt. I checked the rules and will try to follow them in future. Regards. Evgenii.salganik (talk) 07:19, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Mgzavrebi

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 Mgzavrebi, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of http://www.mgzavrebi.com/about. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Evgenii Salganik! Your additions to Mgzavrebi 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. — SamX [talk · contribs] 20:07, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

this case was already removed by another editor see discussion here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Mgzavrebi. The text you removed is not only different from the source but also has separate references. Evgenii Salganik (talk) 20:17, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's similar enough to the source that it counts as close paraphrasing and is therefore considered a copyright violation even though the wording doesn't match the source exactly. — SamX [talk · contribs] 20:25, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is not the case except for the number of band members (how this can be fully rephrased?). And you removed other information which has nothing to do with the band website and any information form there. Evgenii Salganik (talk) 20:28, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

How about something like this:

Dedalamazishvili founded the band in 2006, initially with three members, although the band's membership increased to fifteen by [DATE]. As of [DATE2], the band has seven members.

Does that work for you? — SamX [talk · contribs] 20:40, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. But the thing is that (1) by the time of your edits the sentence was already rephrased with additional sources, (2) you also removed about 3 sentences which were not sources from the copyright claim website of the band, but were supported by other sources. Evgenii Salganik (talk) 20:43, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, my mistake. I didn't realize that. — SamX [talk · contribs] 20:44, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. I agree that the very first versions were too close to the http://www.mgzavrebi.com/about source for CR violation, but it was rephrased already here. Evgenii Salganik (talk) 20:52, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good to me. Thanks for being so responsive here. Avoiding clsoe paraphrasing can be a real pain and I appreciate the efforts you've made to address the issues. — SamX [talk · contribs] 21:04, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help and contribution to the important task of Wikipedia to follow the copywrite rules, Sam. Evgenii Salganik (talk) 21:12, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit to Gaye Su Akyol 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 more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. 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) 19:28, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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 Mgzavrebi, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
