More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's elegibility.

Hi Diannaa - can I know specifically what content is considered copyright information please? As an academic I am pretty aware of what constitutes plagiarism or copyright infringement and I believe that the content I have written is sourced from the public domain

I did not use any quotations, images or translations and I paraphrased and re-wrote everything except for the titles of the awards and the themes which could come up to be a significant percentage in a machine check. I put the content through a machine check myself just now to try to identify what content might be misconstrued as copyright and the machine pointed to my draft article (which I did not even know was visible to the interwebs).

Your advice and guidance is much appreciated.

many thanks and kind regards, e11e99 (talk) 16:34, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you - that information cannot be copyrighted by BusinessGhana as it is the reproduction of a press release by Hyve media for the conference - my information comes from the conference website and an article that obviously also used the same press release - not sure where else I should get information regarding the awards other than from the horses mouth because they recently created them - your suggestions would be appreciated. e11e99 (talk) 17:29, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure where you got the idea that a press release is not copyright? The conference website would also be copyright. Content you add to Wikipedia needs to be written in your own words. — Diannaa (talk) 20:51, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry - I didn't say the press release or the conference websigt wasn't copyright, I was trying to convey that it cannot be a copyright for the Ghanaian source you referred to which is also a source that I did not use. I cannot put the title of the award in my own words because that is like saying I have to put the title of a book or someone's name in my own words and that is literally all I used, so that is why it must have come up however I believe it is the fair and correct use and have credited my sources. Can you please re-consider your evaluation? e11e99 (talk) 21:26, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not unusual for content to be present in multiple locations online; that's why it's not a source you used.

Sorry, I will not be re-adding this copyright content. Content you add to Wikipedia needs to be written in your own words. If you can't figure out a way to do that, the reader can look at the material in your citation to find out more about the awards if they're interested. — Diannaa (talk) 12:09, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your reply Diannaa. I appreciate your feedback. I am not using the descriptions - I am listing the names of the awards, just like the content in Wikipedia that shows the list of names of books written by an author or lists the names of movies by a Producer. Could you please provide me with some clarity around how this is different? e11e99 (talk) 22:05, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The names of the awards are "Water Award", "Nature Award", and so on. It's okay to list the awards by name. But that's not what happened. You also included a copyright descriptive paragraph copied from their website for each award. You can't do that; to do so is a violation of our copyright policy. — Diannaa (talk) 02:58, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand where you are coming from now - I thought I had converted the descriptions to my own words and that is what you removed not the list of awards - thank you for y our guidance - it is much appreciated. I see you are also from Alberta - I hope you have started to enjoy some spring 🌸🙏🏾🌸 e11e99 (talk) 12:37, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
