Nnanna Uzor Kalu moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Nnanna Uzor Kalu, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:43, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I have moved this to drafts, because there is content which isn't supported by references, including private personal details which per WP:BLP must be either referenced or removed. We also need a reliable source to support the main claim to notability, ie. the membership of the Nigerian legislative assembly. Once those are provided, the draft can be published. Thank you, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:46, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,
I understand. I'm working on it to give it reliable sources. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 06:48, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Translation

[edit]

Hello! Strange request here, but an article about me and my Wikipedia work has been promoted to Good article status at English Wikipedia and nominated for similar status at Persian Wikipedia and Spanish Wikipedia. I'm curious if you have any interest in translating the entry for Igbo Wikipedia? Figured I'd ask since your profile suggests you do translation work. Either way, happy editing! ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:03, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and yes, I am, and will translate it. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 20:38, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks so much! Another editor has created ig:Jason Moore (onye nchịkọta Wikipedia) if you want to collaborate or check the text. Much appreciated! ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:18, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I've gone through it and effected some changes as well. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 07:58, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Nnanna Uzor Kalu

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Iwuala Lucy. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Nnanna Uzor Kalu, 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) 12:01, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Climate of Nigeria, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Climate Change Bill. 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) 06:03, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Duly noted. It was an error. Will definitely remove it Iwuala Lucy (talk) 06:40, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Nnanna Uzor Kalu

[edit]

Hello, Iwuala Lucy. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Nnanna Uzor Kalu".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! Hey man im josh (talk) 13:04, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You're going to need to explain why you attempted to create an article about a subject that's been protected due to long-term abuse. The article you attempted to create about the individual was mostly a copy of Barun Sobti except with the banned subject's name. If you cannot provide an explanation for this, you will be blocked from editing. OhNoitsJamie Talk 16:35, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Ohnoitsjamie, thanks for calling my attention to this. I was and have never been paid for any article creation on the English Wikipedia. I've only created one or two articles on the English Wikipedia which I've submitted to review committee for verification. I tried creating this article today and immediately I saw the information concerning it, I immediately canceled it and didn't go further.
So sorry if I've caused any harm to the English Wikipedia. Promise to be cautious when next I'm creating articles on the English Wikipedia. Thank you. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 17:30, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's not an explanation for why you tried creating an article about an WP:LTA using the text and references from an unrelated article. I highly suggest honesty here. OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:35, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Ohnoitsjamie, I'm going to be very honest with you here. If you also need the screenshot of the chat, I would definitely supply you with that or I can send you the chat as well.
On my Facebook page, I indicated that I'm a WIKIPEDIAN. @Susovan Roy (Facebook User) has been writing me to create an article about him on Wikipedia (mind you, I've never known him from anywhere). It has been over a month now and I informed him that there are criteria for such to happen - NOTABILITY. He shared me links on articles that was covered on him which, I thought was reliable enough to do so. However, as of last week, I tried creating an article about him (since I also want to improve in my English Wikipedia article creation) but got to know that it's not giving me the right page to go ahead and I left it.
Today, I decided to give it my best shot and see if I can create the article. Since I'm not experienced on the English Wikipedia, I chose to create it on Draft and also copied a content of an article on Batun Sobti to serve as a guide. My laptop was about to go off and once it shuts down everything would miss so I decided to publish and that's when I received and understood the full message surrounding the content and I canceled everything and shut down.
This is the HONESTY surrounding it. I'm so sorry to have caused this. Thank you. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 19:01, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Ohnoitsjamie it was as a result of my system almost shutting down that I tried publishing with an @WP:LTA that doesn't correspond.
It won't happen again. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 19:04, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I can't imagine you doing this for free. I'm not going to block you this time, but I'm going to keep an eye on your article creations, and if I see any hint of suspect WP:PAID violations, you will be blocked from editing. OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:47, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Ohnoitsjamie Nobody had/has approached me for payment on anything related to wiki projects, hence, I have never been paid.
And yes, you can still keep an eye on my activities to see any vandalization.
Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 19:53, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Control copyright icon Hello Iwuala Lucy! Your additions to Center for Research, Information Management and Media Development Museum 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. Content you added in February 2023. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 12:43, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Category:Nigerian Towns indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 17:23, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz thanks for the notification. The category can be deleted as I was using it to teach Wikimedians newbie on creating a category on the Wikipedia page, which removed.
