Welcome JeanMercier90!

Hello JeanMercier90. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Ad Orientem, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:   Introduction to Wikipedia   The five pillars of Wikipedia   Editing tutorial   How to edit a page   Simplified Manual of Style   The basics of Wikicode   How to develop an article   How to create an article   Help pages   What Wikipedia is not

Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:   Do be bold   Do assume good faith   Do be civil   Do keep cool!   Do maintain a neutral point of view   Don't spam   Don't infringe copyright   Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest   Don't commit vandalism   Don't get blocked

If you need further help, you can:   Ask a question

or you can:   Get help at the Teahouse

or even:   Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{Help me}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:   Fight vandalism   Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome   Help contribute to articles   Perform maintenance tasks

Become a member of a project that interests you   Help design new templates   Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost   Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
• Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
  

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Hello, I'm Darkwarriorblake. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Batman Returns have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 14:43, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Batman Returns. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 14:47, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 14:47, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Your recent editing history 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.

Please do not attack other editors. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. glman (talk) 15:36, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello JeanMercier90! Your additions to Pablo Escobar 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, 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 direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
• 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 copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
• Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's eligibility.
• 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.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 11:46, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Would you be so kind as to show me where I am infringing copyright? I am first placing the respective sources of each edition to avoid these inconveniences. JeanMercier90 (talk) 14:42, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Assasination of Luis Carlos Galán, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gustavo Bolívar. 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) 07:54, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Alias El Mexicano, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:10, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to remove maintenance templates without resolving the problem that the template refers to, as you did at Alias El Mexicano, you may be blocked from editing. CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:18, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

I see you've already been warned three times about edit warring, yet continue to do so, here: [1] [2]. I'm putting this notice here not so much in the hope that you will stop, as to give another example for when you eventually end up on some noticeboard. GA-RT-22 (talk) 04:20, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

What's your problem? JeanMercier90 (talk) 16:07, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi JeanMercier90. Thank you for your work on Assassination of Luis Carlos Galán. Another editor, SunDawn, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Thank you for creating the article! Have a good day ahead!

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to List of heads of former ruling families. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. DrKay (talk) 18:09, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

I have provided the relevant sources. If you don't bother to check them, it's up to you. JeanMercier90 (talk) 18:46, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

I did check them as is obvious from the edit summary[3]. DrKay (talk) 18:49, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Your edit to Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom 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) 01:00, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Are you kidding me? I provided the appropriate sources for what I wrote. I don't know if the problem is that you don't read, but I provided the references conscientiously without plagiarizing or anything. I didn't even know that it came from that page you mentioned in the history. I put it from another site that I mentioned there, which surely was translated from the source you mentioned. Instead of causing me these problems, read carefully before doing these atrocities.JeanMercier90 (talk) 01:13, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

I did get the source wrong. If you look at the source I found, it's a translation of the website you cited. It's not unusual for material to be copied to multiple places online. What you did is copied a Google translation of a copyright webpage (this one, which is marked as "All Rights Reserved © 2024 Infobae"). Copying a translation of a copyright webpage is still a violation of our copyright policy. Diannaa (talk) 11:37, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Well, instead of reverting, you should have told me from the beginning and I can edit it properly so that it is not or looks like plagiarism. Things are resolved by talking and not by doing this kind of action. JeanMercier90 (talk) 15:14, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Sorry but there's anywhere from 75 to 100 potential violations to be assessed each day. Since there's only a very small group of people working on copyright cleanup, discussion of each individual violation is not practical. Diannaa (talk) 21:19, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

I don't know if you or the other people are stirring up a storm in a glass of water. JeanMercier90 (talk) 21:53, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Sometimes it's good to remind ourselves that there's a human on the other side of the screen, and just like us, they're trying their best (well, most of the time) to do good work out there. It looked like you were having a bad day out there in the talk pages, so I thought I'd offer some advice which I wish I had received sooner than I did in my own life.

CS1 error on Chaim Rumkowski

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Chaim Rumkowski, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

• A bare URL error. References show this error when one of the URL-containing parameters cannot be paired with an associated title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 16:15, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Posada Alemana

Hello, and thank you for your efforts to improve Wikipedia, and in particular for adding references, as you did to Posada Alemana! However, adding a bare URL is not ideal, and exposes the reference to link rot. It is preferable to use proper citation templates when citing sources, including details such as title, author, date, and any other information necessary for a bibliographic citation. Here's an example of a full citation using the {{cite web}} template to cite a web page:

Lorem ipsum<ref>{{cite web |title=Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac |publisher=Canon Inc |work=Ask a Question |date=2022 |url=https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART174839 |access-date=2022-04-02}}</ref> dolor sit amet.

which displays inline in the running text of the article as:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.

and displays under References as:

1. ^ Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac". Ask a Question. Canon Inc. 2022. Retrieved 2022-04-02.

If you've already added one or more bare URLs to an article, there are tools available to expand them into full citations; try the reFill tool, which can resolve some bare references semi-automatically. Also, please do not remove the article clean-up tag that highlights an article has one or more bare URLs unless you also fix the problem with the citations. The clean-up tags are there to highlight a problem that needs to be fixed for a better quality article. Other editors have already attempted to improve some of the citations in the article using an available tool, and I have already attempted to improve one citation in the article, too. However, the citations in the article appear to be from Spanish language websites, so the language used in the article also needs to be indicated, which doesn't always happen automatically.

I am also puzzled by a couple of your citations concerning the statue of John Lennon, which say you accessed the cited pages in 2013, which is inconsistent with you writing the article on 20 December 2024. The surrounding citation code strongly suggests the citations have been copied, or translated, from another Wikipedia article, and if this is so, you need to attribute the source material. See the guideline for Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 20:52, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello pal. I appreciate your interest in my edits. However, although what you teach me looks good, I prefer Citation-Bot to cite the sources. You know, an Artificial Intelligence does more than the human brain and the human being itself. I do as I can and it is not necessary for me to copy and paste. It is not my fault that the sources are cited. As I say, I do what I can and how I can. Wikipedia should improve this issue of citation of sources, making everything automatic. If you need anything, I am at your service. JeanMercier90 (talk) 22:55, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Unfortunately, your edits added the raw URLs to this article, not Citation-Bot curated citations. Since you are editing the article you are responsible for the edits you make, not a bot that might come along later to clean up your work. Also, usually it is editors that do this, not bots. There are also tools in the various editing interfaces that allow you to add properly formatted citations. I am using one of these tools to convert your raw URLs into proper citations, including translating the titles of the articles you have cited. It is as simple as filling in a form, that the tool populates from the URL provided. As far as I am aware, Wikipedia does not allow artificial intelligences to edit its articles, yet, and all bots are programmed and controlled by humans. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 23:32, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
