Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Competence (human resources), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Attitude. 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.)

A "list of lists" has no display in a type layout. Achmad Rachmani (talk) 16:13, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Achmad Rachmani: I'm not well read in type systems. Does the 'no display'-issue come from the spaces? Vital articles, Featured content, Good activities, A-Z index and Human activities don't seem to cause display issues. Kind regards, Infogiraffic (talk) 15:47, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Infogiraffic! Your additions to Competence (polyseme) 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. — Diannaa (talk) 23:08, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Diannaa! How do I find out which Creative Commons was chosen by the authors of the apparent copyrighted material? Infogiraffic (talk) 15:03, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This particular article was not released under a compatible license. Go to https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.3109/01421599609040255; there's no license anywhere. Click on "Read this article" and you'll see that you can buy a copy for $62.00 US. So no, this one is not compatibly licensed. — Diannaa (talk) 23:39, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is absence of a visible license enough to circumvent WP:PAYWALL, which states "Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access."? And if so, should Wikipedia policy more clearly inform its users not to consult paywalled sources? @​ Infogiraffic (talk) 10:05, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's okay to use such sources as a source of information, but it's not okay to copy their prose; to do so is a violation of our copyright policy. Everything you add to Wikipedia needs to be written in your own words. — Diannaa (talk) 12:17, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Such a relief. I wasn't aware of patchwriting being a thing, to be avoided even. Is there a way by which I can retrieve the deleted information so that I can summarize and correctly paraphrase it? @​ Infogiraffic (talk) 09:35, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the CopyPatrol report. Click on the iThenticate link to see the overlapping text. — Diannaa (talk) 11:31, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you @Diannaa, very interesting tool! Infogiraffic (talk) 10:14, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

<humour mode on>
I am amazed by your Template:Competence sidebar. Such an interesting subject and a complete failure at the same time. 10 links to disambiguation pages in this template is not a sign of competence.
<humour mode off>

But seriously, could you fix those links to disambiguation pages? The full list of faulty links is: Ambition, Attitude, Capability, Capacity, Instruction, Method, Priority, Proficiency, Style, Urgency

Thanks in advance. The Banner talk 11:05, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @The Banner, thanks for pointing out. Shall I, at first, try to link these to Wiktionary instead? Setting up new articles for these terms will probably take some time. Infogiraffic (talk) 11:18, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think you just have to visit all these disambiguation pages and see if there is anything useful there to link to. Like Ambition (character trait). The Banner talk 12:20, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I indeed overlooked some, I see. @​ Infogiraffic (talk) 12:57, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed your creation of the article Contents of philosophy. However, this appears to be a directory to various other wikipedia articles, which is not really what Wikipedia is for. I've draftified it for now; it's not clear whether you intended for it to be a mainspace article and, if so, abou what. Please don't take this as harsh criticism; it does appear to contain valuble cntent that could be transferred to a list or category, though I think that already exists. Regards, Fermiboson (talk) 04:52, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Fermiboson, my intention was to create only some sort of directory — no more different than outline- and list-pages can be perceived as directories — based on Wikipedia's main content system guideline as per WP:START, since it seems to me to offer the most overarching and user-friendly scheme by which to sort out philosophy-related information. I am aware that portals were originally intended for this specific purpose, but they seem to be utterly ineffective due to their becoming outdated recursively. Would you mind gathering some more opinions on whether a Contents-page is desired? Infogiraffic (talk) 20:29, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely; you are free to move the article back to mainspace at any time. I won't pretend to be intimately familiar with all of Wikipedia's policies. It does, however, appear on further searching that what you are aiming to create already exists. Fermiboson (talk) 21:12, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Infogiraffic. Thank you for your work on Transcognition. User:PatrickJWelsh, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Hi, thanks for contributing the article Transcognition to Wikipedia! I have two suggestions for improvement:

1) Could you clarify whether the term has any frequency outside of Nietzsche scholarship?

2) Could you provide an example, preferably from Wilcox or another source? Even those already familiar with Nietzsche would benefit.

Regards,

Hello, Infogiraffic. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Contents of philosophy, 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) 14:12, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Infogiraffic. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Contents of philosophy".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:42, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Viewquake 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/Viewquake until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion.
