Concern regarding Draft:CVLUX

Hello, Theotherlala. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:CVLUX, 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) 18:02, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:CVLUX

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

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 nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! Celestina007 (talk) 20:15, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

September 2022

Hello Theotherlala. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Theotherlala. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Theotherlala|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. —Ganesha811 (talk) 02:31, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Hello. I don't understand what would give you an impression that I have a financial stake in promoting a topic. I don't. I work at a restaurant in Greece and English is not my first language. Just a fan of celebrities and I like editing Wikipedia. Been doing it since 2007. To make it clear, I do not receive any money for editing and didn't mean to promote anything specific. Theotherlala (talk) 17:28, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the answer. The explanation makes sense - I just noticed a pattern of adding a lot of positive detail (especially very low-level charity work) to the articles of minor celebrities. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia so far. I would encourage you to keep your additions to WP:SUMMARY style, remembering that not every detail reported about a person is notable, especially since there is a whole industry dedicated to churning out low-quality coverage of the every move of most celebrities. Happy editing. —Ganesha811 (talk) 17:51, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your helpful edits on Stephanie Land

Great job adding all this info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Stephanie_Land&type=revision&diff=1122691216&oldid=1113773216, but take a look at some of the additions I made and maybe you can use this as some constructive feedback. First off, tables should have captions for accessibility, per MOS:TABLECAPTION. Also, several of the references you added had some incorrect information re: author names, etc. Also, this particular article uses list-defined references, but that's easy to change with a script, so I did. Again, very helpful and happy to have you working with me on this article. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:47, 19 November 2022 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ines de Ramon

The article Ines de Ramon has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable coverage per WP:BLP.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. BilCat (talk) 19:05, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Nomination of Ines de Ramon for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Ines de Ramon is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ines de Ramon until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Theotherlala! Your additions to Sofia Vergara 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. The quote that you included was not a copyright violation since you attributed it correctly, but the sentence preceding it was. Thank you. — SamX [talk · contribs] 20:31, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

September 2023

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at Jamie Lynn Spears, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. Breaktheicees (talk) 13:28, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

Actually I only removed a little piece of content about her feud with Britney, which is irrelevant and no need to add it on her Wikipedia page. Also, I removed the text "the book was not a financial success", since it's not actually a fact and the book was on Amazon's bestseller list. Can you please add my content back, because I added a lot of info on Public image-section and I didn't really remove much content, I just changed the place. Can you check again Theotherlala (talk) 17:01, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello. In regards to the book being a "financial success", it may have initially been successful upon release, but the cited source that was published a year following the release shows that it was not successful in the long term. Additionally, you did not provide any sources to back up your claim of being on any best-seller lists. You also removed the cited Rolling Stone claims in the paragraph without explanation. The "public image" section that you expanded is unnecessary and repeats information given elsewhere, and much of the information you added is unsourced. In regards to the feud with Britney, it is also indeed sourced and thus should be included. Breaktheicees (talk) 15:30, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

November 2023

Your edit to Jamie Lynn Spears 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) 20:46, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
