Thanks for uploading Image:Talica.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Hello! Walter Tau,
I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing.

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.

Hello Walter Tau,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Georgia-Pacific Corp. v. United States Plywood Corp. for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. ubiquity (talk) 13:46, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Inventive step and non-obviousness. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 03:46, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

The article Vlad Sokolovskiy has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the ((prod blp/dated)) tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Hi Walter Tau! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Sci-Hub that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information.

Hi Walter Tau, I just undid you edit to 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine because it wasn't formatted in a way that is normal for Wikipedia (for example it didn't use internal links) and it wasn't placed in a logical section of the article.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Scholarly peer review into another page. 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. Doug Weller talk 15:02, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Libraries-Pictures-H1.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Hello, Walter Tau. I noticed that your recent edit to Fuel cell added a link to an image on an external website or on your computer, or to a file name that does not exist on Wikipedia's server. For technical and policy reasons it is not possible to use images from external sources on Wikipedia. Most images you find on the internet are copyrighted and cannot be used on Wikipedia, or their use is subject to certain restrictions. If the image meets Wikipedia's image use policy, consider uploading it to Wikipedia yourself or request that someone else upload it. See the image tutorial to learn about wiki syntax used for images. Thank you. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 23:36, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
An article you recently created, Georgia-Pacific Corp. v. United States Plywood Corp., 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.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Le Roy v. Tatham into Patentable subject matter. 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 (talk) 15:07, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello again, Walter Tau. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as at Talk:Sufficiency of disclosure, (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Hi Walter. I saw that you were interested in Georgia-Pacific Corp. v. United States Plywood Corp, which is somewhat related to fair pricing for patent licenses, so I was hoping you might take a look at the Essential patents page with me. I work for Qualcomm, who is a major developer of essential patents. Therefore, I disclosed a conflict of interest and planned not to make any kind of major expansion of the page (even though it needs it). However, the page is not in very good shape and I was hoping to help get it to a point where it at least has a basic, properly cited description of what essential patents are. I posted over here if you have a minute to take a look and join in. Lcfbrandon (talk) 22:47, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

You have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the ((Ctopics/aware)) template.

Do I understand correctly, that you manually edited my reference list?- Yes
Please note, that you missed a lot of infor, such as volumes, issues and page numbers.I know. I was just being lazy, and a reader can visit DOI to see all those info (it's mostly sufficient to fill in required parameters, not everything).
Do you think, that wiki-readers would find my reference style with more infor better than yours?Do you mean your style with more information? It's okay to fill in as much as needed, but it's mostly sufficient to fill in only required parameters, because some template parameters may be redundant. Readers interested in knowing more about the source would just visit the DOI or URL (if there's already DOI, we don't need URL because it's redundant, unless it links to a freely available PDF version that's hosted elsewhere for example). But it's recommended that we use templates and not fill in raw citations manually (because many internal tools and bots rely on template structure to parse and perform certain tasks).
Do you think, that when the reference format is less than ideal, it would be better to have a complete bibliographic infor than to adhere to some format, which is not used anywhere else besides wiki and has a missing infor?Citation types (WP:CITETYPE) should be consistent across the whole article; we can't mix citation styles. And sources should be cited as per MOS guidelines. For a detailed guideline, please consult Wikipedia:Citing sources. --WikiLinuz (talk) 06:49, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
>> Thank you for ypour reply. Did you know, that there are programs (such as EndNote, Mendeley and Zotero), that can auto-generate references in a user -defined format? I use the most expensive of the three (EndNote), but unfortunately, EndNote cannot split authors first name and last name into wiki style firstname= , lastname=. Still there are other options. You mentioned, that wiki can generate a complete reference from DOI. Do you where I can find this tool?

Hello, Walter Tau. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Grillo-Werke".
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 deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗plicit 14:07, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
