New page in Sandbox and other help
Hi Surajt88,
I am new here and am just starting off. I added some information a few days agon that apply to the content just as others have done previously. Now I am getting comments accusing me of spam! All I have done is add to the material as others have done, yet my changes are being deleted. What can I do about this?
I have created a new contribution page in the sandbox, again just as others have done but with original contect, which I am working on. Please could you be kind enough to review it and perhaps provide your thoughts as to why these people are removing my changes and point out anything that I can do to stop this?
Thanks, your help is much appreciated.
Andrew.

- Hello Andrew,
- Welcome to Wikipedia. I have gone through your edits. Your account seems to be used for only adding the link http://www.corsetique.com to corset related articles. I have no idea if you are affiliated with this website and your edits maybe in good faith, but the first impression I got was that of spamming. It may not have been your intention of spamming, but anyway, please go through WP:OTHERSPAM, WP:ELNO and more importantly WP:PROMO.
- And regarding the article you are developing in your userspace, I'm assuming its an article about Corsetique. I did a preliminary web search which did not yield any notable mentions of Corsetique. Articles in Wikipedia require reliable sources. Without reliable sources the article will be speedily deleted (See WP:CSD and WP:ORG). Please use the template below to find reliable sources before moving the article to the mainspace.
- Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Happy editing. Suraj T 05:11, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
Hi Suraj, Many thanks for taking the time to look into this. Firstly please accept my appolgy if I have not done things the right way. My intentions were not to spam. I noticed other link entries on the contributions that I edited, and since those links were no different to the link I placed, I assumed all is OK. For example, hotcorsets.co.uk is a link that someone else has placed, yet it seems it falls under the 'reliable sources' issue. If my understanding is correct, should the hotcorsets.co.uk link, amongst others not be removed also? With regards to contributions in general, I would like to add a contribution for Symington's Corsets as a historic artifact on the subject. Please can you advise if this will be something that will be acceptable to the Wiki policies? Again, thanks for your help.

Copyright concerns
Hi Surajt88, I've been looking at your edits to three articles and I'd like to raise some concerns. In Hypersonic Technology Vehicle 2 [1], Polarizing organic photovoltaics [2] and Sun-free photovoltaics [3] I found and removed multiple instances where you directly copied text from other sources. I used a blanket copyright tag on the last one and opened a thread at the copyright noticeboard so that another admin can look at it, see here. Please be aware that you cannot copy other people's writing, even if you give the source in a footnote, unless you use quotation marks to make clear what is not your own writing - and the amount of text you are copying, even if it was in quotes, would be a copyright violation anyway.
The main relevant policy here is WP:COPYRIGHT, see here, especially at "Using copyrighted work..." You might also find the non-free use and plagiarism guidelines helpful, and our essay on close paraphrasing to be informative.
As I've found problems in the first three articles I checked where you have substantially edited, I'd like to ask you to pause to review the links I've supplied above so that you can better understand our policy on copying. After that review, it would be helpful if you would go back through your article edit history to identify any similar problems and fix or remove them yourself. If you have any questions about this, please post them here. If I can't answer them, I'll do my best to get you to the right resource. Thanks & regards! Franamax (talk) 22:45, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Surajt88, I have reviewed some of your articles and share the concerns of Franamax. Please understand that copyright issues are taken rather seriously on wikipedia. This is not to scare you, but to give advice. Please make time to substantially rephrase your contributions which have been copied (with minor modifications) from the sources. Some guidelines can be found in WP:PARAPHRASE. Although we are all volunteers and may not put any time constrains, the earlier this is done, the better it will be for everyone. I have moved four of your articles to your userspace 1 2 3 4, but please rethink all your contributions and do not restrict your revisions to those articles only. Regards. Materialscientist (talk) 03:59, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
I've also blanked Solar–Hydrogen energy cycle and listed it at the WP:CP noticeboard. I seem to be finding problems in all the articles you've created. I've also notified user Moonriddengirl, who is our most knowledgeable copyright person. You can read the thread on her talk page. Franamax (talk) 18:09, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
