[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted content, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.
This submission appears to be taken from https://www.ohchr.org/en/hr-bodies/hrc/co-h-south-sudan/index#:~:text=The%20Commission's%20mandate%20is%20to,view%20to%20ending%20impunity%20and. Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere, unless it explicitly and verifiably has been released to the world under a suitably free and compatible copyright license or into the public domain and is written in an acceptable tone—this includes material that you own the copyright to. You should attribute the content of a draft to outside sources, using citations, but copying and pasting or closely paraphrasing sources is not acceptable. The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure.
You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work. DoubleGrazing (talk) 21:02, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Teahouse crew,
My current article has been declined by citing it has only primary sources, which is untrue. The article has many external sources and news stories were cited. The reviewer suggests that the page can be merged with another page - Human Rights in South Sudan. This is not acceptable as the page I created is for a UN independent inquiry commission. The pages cannot be merged. I am not sure how you guys can help me in this, but your advise would be very much appreciated.

Hi @Rajeevstkt a third-party source does not mean it is secondary and news reports are often primary because all they are doing is regurgitating what the a subject says. In this case, they was were restating the UN report. What I suggest is adding a section to Human rights in South Sudan that covers the Commission and their findings.

Many thanks for the reply. But the vital point is - the UN Commission page cannot be simply added as a section in the page you mentioned. It is an independent authority and an investigative body. It needs to be standing as a separate page. However, mentioning the said page in the article can be done. Anyways, I hear you on the primary/news sources. See, the primary source in this case would be the commission's reports (which I cited); all the news reports of the commissions findings are to be considered as a secondary, right? That was my impression. What in this case would be an accepted third party source? But, I would highly appreciate if you could suggest a way to resolve this issue. I have been waiting for over 5 months for the review. Kindly share your advice and I will try amending it.
(Also one query - if I amend this, will it go down the bottom of the current waiting list for the final review?) Rajeevstkt (talk) 17:46, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Similar UN machanisms like the Commission has page in wikipedia with the same line of sources. Check out pls - Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine

As for other articles, see WP:OTHERSTUFF. We do not determine notability or if a topic should be a stand-alone article by comparing it to existing articles as those may have their own issues (see also WP:NOPAGE) and it being an independent authority is not meaningful. As far as news reports, they are only secondary if they contain the authors own independent analysis, evaluation, etc (see Secondary). If all they are doing is relying on what the Commission says or wrote, then they are primary. For example interviews are primary sources regardless of who conducted/published it. What I suggest is to go ahead and add it to the existing article as that will get into the encyclopedia now then continue to work on the draft. You might be able find additional sources on Google Scholar but be careful; not everything there is reliable. As far as resubmitting the draft and when it will be reviewed, it is more like a pool rather than queue as there is no order as what gets reviewed when. Reviewers grab what they want so it could take a day or months. I am currently working on some of the oldest. S0091 (talk) 18:18, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Rajeevstkt/sandbox

[edit]

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 User:Rajeevstkt/sandbox 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://www.ohchr.org/en/hr-bodies/hrc/co-h-south-sudan/index#:~:text=The%20Commission's%20mandate%20is%20to,view%20to%20ending%20impunity%20and. 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.

Control copyright icon Hello Rajeevstkt! 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. You must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. 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 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 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. Our 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. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 22:17, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Commission on Human Rights in South Sudan (June 25)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by S0091 was:
The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Human Rights in South Sudan. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Most of the sources are primary but the commission's work could be covered in the Human rights in South Sudan article.
