Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page
Wakanda has been reverted.
Your edit
here to
Wakanda was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links in references which are discouraged per our
reliable sources guideline. The reference(s) you added or changed (
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Wakanda,
https://web.archive.org/web/20190209122840/https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Wakanda) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an
external link that does comply with our
policies and
guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to
undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Wakanda you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa ( talk) 13:05, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
Thanks for the feedback. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 14:24, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
Since that claim is rather extraordinary, it needs to be discussed at talk:Ventilator first, please. Guy ( help! - typo?) 14:06, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
JzG, greetings and hoping all is well. The claim about the origin of ventilator is not absurd. It is not my own self-published work. It was sourced and not just any source but a reliable one. The ventilator then was not advanced as today's. Do not have it in mind that the Ancient Egyptian ventilator is exactly the same as the modern. Maybe if it had been the likes of Greece, Rome or middle ages, the post will still be around not deleted as well. Lol, I haven't poked my finger at anyone; just a joke. Sorry for the troubles tho. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 14:16, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
Alright then. We can just let it go. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 14:24, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
The article cites "Ephʿal 2005" and "Mark 2009" but no such sources are listed in bibliography. Can you please add? Also, suggest installing a script to highlight such errors in the future. All you need to do is copy and paste importScript('User:Svick/HarvErrors.js'); // Backlink: [[User:Svick/HarvErrors.js]]
to
your common.js page. Thanks,

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from
African military systems to 1800 into
Fortification. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere,
Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an
edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and
linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{
copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at
Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. —

Diannaa sorry I didn't know about attributing contributors. However, I didn't copy and paste. I actually wrote the whole thing under sources from African military systems. Does that mean that, if you use sources from a page for your work, are you supposed to attribute the page from which you got your source?( Kwesi Yema ( talk) 14:20, 5 October 2020 (UTC))
Yes that is true. I mostly copy and edit what I wrote myself. However, the question I asked was that, what if you saw a source in the form of a book like let's say book sources of the fortification section under the African military systems to 1800 and you re-wrote what the source provided in the African section of Fort but it wasn't copy and paste. However, your work looks very similar to the work of other authors because you all used one source, will I have to attribute the authors or can I just say article African military systems to 1800. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 14:50, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
What I meant to say was "Main | African military systems etc. etc. " Kwesi Yema ( talk) 14:52, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
Your edit to Ghanaian government response to the COVID-19 pandemic and COVID-19 pandemic in Ghana have been removed in part, as it appears you 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.

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 Presidency of John Atta Mills requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://emerituseducation.wordpress.com/2020/07/28/political-library-prof-mills-economic-era-date-friday-july-272020-time-33035pm-by-fiifi-annorson/. 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.
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. — Amkgp 💬 03:37, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
User:Amkgp the source you shared rather copied the contents from the John Atta Mills page. I copied his policies and all of the policies are sourced by 3rd party sources such as aljazeera. After, I attributed that I copied from that page. I did not copy from the source you shared. You can check out the John Atta Mills page and see what I'm saying.

Hello Kwesi, the quick answer to your question is is "Yes". Any book, magazine, newspaper that is publicly available in print or online should be OK. Good luck! Fsmatovu ( talk) 14:26, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
Hello Kwesi Yema I hope I can help you out, Where exactly are you creating the articles? On wikipedia or on wikidata? Anyway you check this out https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:Description and i hope it helps out but give a feedback so I can know how best to offer some extra help. Cheers! ---------- Ampimd ( talk)
Ampimd, thanks for the response. All the pages are on Wikipedia. I'm experimenting this page, Presidency of John Mahama with meta sources from Presidency of Donald Trump. First of all, I now understand how to create a meta data description, however, is there a manual way to link the meta data to Wikipedia or it automatically takes care of that? Kwesi Yema ( talk) 00:10, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
Ampimd, thank you very much. I was able to create the data as you can now see it on the page. However, it doesn't appear on the toolbar for some reason and although the number now appears in the wiki data code, there isn't any wikidata description in the Presidency of John Mahama info page. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 01:52, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
Article is live. You should compare the two to be sure then delete the one on your talk page. I never did find the move tool in the Android interface so I created it manually, and conceivably missed something. It’s throwing a reference error, for one thing. However it has already been reviewed and all they noticed was that it was uncategorized. It has a couple of categories now, could use a couple more. I will look into the language link if it does not populate via bot. This can probably be done through wiki data, but I remember doing it with an inter language link; possibly on my laptop not my phone though Elinruby ( talk) 12:43, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
Ok well. English is a start. I would take this problem to IRC but they only deal with en.wikipedia. I wonder if there is a German equivalent. Each wiki has its own procedures and rules. I gather your German is better than mine so maybe try this: if you are on the page you were redirected to, hit back on your browser. You may have to go back and forth a few times but it is possible to get to the actual page for the redirect. Alternately, on en-wiki the link to IRC is on the community portal page... Maybe the German has one also. Elinruby ( talk) 18:55, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
Try https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Chat Elinruby ( talk) 19:06, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you very much for your help. May God richly bless you. My German isn't good at all as I mostly depend on translators. At the moment both articles share the same wiki data ID meaning if a German wiki administrator sees it he might do something about it instead of totally deleting the link. However, let's hear what the IRC has to say. Eitherway, I also wanted to inform you on the porcupine image. It actually doesn't represent the Kotoko council, rather, it is the Emblem of His Majesty the King of Ashanti created by the first Ashanti king. Basically, all that is left with are more sources. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 19:10, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
So it represents Ashanti as embodied in the king and therefore his council? I understand what you are saying about translators; my German is good enough to find that link, but definitely not up to explaining this problem in German. I suppose there is a chance someone may speak English in the chat room, but that is not a given. Elinruby ( talk) 21:00, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
There may be a way to find help through Local Embassy oh the community portal. I believe the one at en.wiki is for people who don't speak English, but if you click around in there you may be able to find the German equivalent. Elinruby ( talk) 21:08, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
Elinruby, unfortunately I don't have access to JSTOR thus, I can't read it. However, the source you shared (Ivor Wilks) forms part of the sources in the article even before it was translated, but it lacks the inline pages. Troubling enough is that the book is only found on JSTOR and not other reading places like Google books etc. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 23:56, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi Kwesi Yema, I have noticed your message about an issue you are facing about a user. I am looking into it, but keep calm, for now anytime he adds something you not well referenced or in line with the Wikipedia rules and regulations you can take it off or notify him and remove. He may be new and feel he is right so this would be the best chance to straighten him up. Thanks for reaching out. Ampimd ( talk) 00:15, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
Ampimd, thank you very much sir. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 00:25, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
That is true. Even the image he uploaded comes from his Instagram feeds. He submitted a draft earlier with the same source but the AFC admins shot it down saying his sources are unreliable. He really knows what he is doing. He's been informed by several administrators to follow the rules but he keeps playing around them. As you said, he's probably doing a promotional thing believing wikipedia is like a blog or social media platform. Kwesi Yema ( talk) 00:55, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
You said there was a copyright infringement of a text but that was only the statement and not the entire article. I'm not totally sure what you meant, but that seems to underestimate the extent of the copyright violation, which was around 65%, mainly of
this and
this. As you know, acknowledging your sources doesn't mean you can copy them, so that doesn't help.
What I will do is restore as a draft at
Draft:Ashanti traditional buildings to give you a chance to sort it out. Please check for remaining violations with
Earwig before moving it back to article space. The tool will advise you if the level of matches are acceptable.

Fram, I just begun editing the article to remove all the copyrighted statements but it was suddenly deleted again. Please exercise patience. The whole reason for the draft was to remove all the copied statements and rewrite them in my own words to fit wiki standards. Can I have a copy of the deleted draft to rework on it?( Kwesi Yema ( talk) 09:49, 9 February 2022 (UTC))

I remember you helped me a year ago for an exemption and I'm grateful once more. I sent a request for an unblock to Wikipedia:Unblock Ticket Request System about 20 hours ago but I'm yet to receive any information.

@ Kwesi Yema This is a friendly message to emphasize the importance of upholding order and decorum as we collectively edit Wikipedia. Wikipedia's core principles and guidelines, such as neutrality, verifiability, and reliable sourcing, are the foundation upon which this platform thrives. These rules ensure that we deliver accurate and unbiased information to a diverse global audience.
It is crucial to remember that Wikipedia is built upon the commitment to providing knowledge to the world, irrespective of personal beliefs, political affiliations, ethnic backgrounds, or tribal associations. Our contributions should reflect this commitment to neutrality and inclusivity. When adding or editing content, we should always refer to Wikipedia's tags and categories, such as "NPOV" (Neutral Point of View), "CITE" (citation needed), and "RS" (reliable source). These not only guide our contributions but also help maintain the high standard of credibility Wikipedia is known for.
By adhering to these principles, we can ensure that Wikipedia continues to be a valuable and trusted source of information for people worldwide. Together, let's contribute to a more informed and enlightened global community by upholding these fundamental rules and values in our editing endeavors. Ihikky ( talk) 17:08, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
