Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Hunspell, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can click here to ask a question on your talk page and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find this short tutorial helpful:

I added an article for a request of a brief history at Talk:Hunspell page. I used the materials as it is linked to LibreOffice.org website at "reference" section and also considered it as Fair use in US laws. LibreOffice is a renowned public project published under the Mozilla Public License. It declares that all text and images on this website are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0. License. See at https://conference.libreoffice.org/2012/speaker/laszlo-nemeth.html I appreciated your comments and thank you very much. --Green (talk) 00:36, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the mistake. What you need to do when copying compatibly licensed material is to include attribution. In fact such attribution is required under the terms of the Creative Commons license. I've re-added the material and provided the required attribution.

Today I found another case: on Grsync, copied from here. The page is marked as "© 2019 Linux Journal, LLC. All rights reserved." So it's not okay to copy from there. Fair use law does not apply. Wikipedia has a very strict copyright policy, stricter in some ways than copyright law itself, because our fair use policy does not allow us to copy material from copyright sources when there's a freely licensed alternative available. In this case the freely licensed material is prose that we write ourselves. You must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. — Diannaa (talk) 13:36, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I thank you for your comment and advice. --Green (talk) 10:43, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

なぜ出典と違う記述を掲載したのでしょうか？

どうもはじめまして。日本語版でも活動している舌先現象です。日本語版でも検証の可能性について投稿ブロックなどされていましたが、なぜKozo Iizukaのページで臆測でしかない人の意見を上級国民だからという文の出典に加えたのでしょうか？ --舌先現象になります (talk) 04:23, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Green: こんにちは。しばらく事態の推移を伺っておりましたが、記事の公正・中立を確保するために、記事を加筆しました。名の知られた出版社に掲載されたので問題ないと判断しました。一方の主張だけを掲載するのは良くないと思いましたので。

To be fair to this car accident, I felt a need to add views for and agaist the mentioned car driver. I add a third person's opinion, because it was published by a known magazine publisher in Japan. --Green (talk) 14:44, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.--ネイ (talk) 11:32, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Warning about casting aspersions

Green, to quote the Hon. Matthew W. Brann: Charges of [violations] are serious. But calling [something a violation] does not make it so. Charges require specific allegations and then proof. We have neither here. I don't understand on what basis you keep making these accusations about ネイ, but unless you have actual evidence (which, how would you?), you need to stop. If you're unable to assume good faith with them, you should probably go do something else. Engaging in made-up accusations on Wikipedia is not allowed. El_C 15:36, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"There have been 42 failed attempts to log in to your account from a new device since the last time you logged in. If it wasn't you, please make sure your account has a strong password."

I must declare that I have got Login alert as above. That is why I mentioned in the past, this is a serious problem, which seems to be TRIGGERED by her as I mentioned before. You should understand that I did NOT say at all that those failed attempt was done by herself. On Wikipedia, it should not be allowed to make a cause to trigger third men's illegal attempts, neither. --Green (talk) 05:29, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
