Ain't I Right Page

Hello Leoneix,

I'm SSBelfastFanatic. I added the lyrics to the "Ain't I Right" page, but you removed them due to me not providing a source. Should lyrics to a song even need a source, if they're the main focus of the song? I am also unsure of what you classify as a "reliable source" due to the fact that I found two websites with the lyrics on them, and the Wikipedia source creator listed them both as unreliable. I'd like some clarification if at all possible.

Thank you,

Hi! @SSBelfastFanatic
You cannot even put the lyrics in the article even with reliable sources as it would be a copyright violation per WP:NOTLYRICS. Hope it clarifies your doubts. Happy editing! Leoneix _(talk) 13:17, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

I will replace the citation issue notice with a copyvio notice on your talk page. Leoneix _(talk) 13:19, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

Tagging pages for speedy deletion

Hello, Leoneix,

Please review WP:CSD so you understand the speedy deletion criteria better. For example, "A" criteria only apply to articles in the main space of the project. If you have questions, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:00, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

@Liz, Sorry about that. I do know A refers to articles. I wanted to ask that in cases where draft are made by just copying existing articles, what procedure is to be followed? I have now put it up for WP:MFD. Leoneix _(talk) 05:15, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Copypatrol

Hi Leoneix,
Thank you for your contributions to Copypatrol. Whilst many of your reviews have been correct, I think I should highlight some specific areas I think you may want to read up on:

• Copying between Wikipedia articles still requires attribution to be fixed-- see WP:CWW. I note that you are marking many of these cases (e.g. [1]) as "No action needed". At a minimum, these require an dummy edit with a summary that conforms to the requirements at WP:PATT. I appreciate that you notified the user, but the focus should be repairing the attribution.
• When there is a blatant copyright violation, simply reverting it is not enough. In many cases, revision deletion is required under criterion RD1. User:Enterprisey/cv-revdel is a script that can help with this (e.g. here someone else did it for you).
• Copyright violations are not allowed anywhere on Wikipedia, whether that be the mainspace or userspace (here). We apply the same criteria to all areas of the project, with no prejudice for whether it is in an article (though obviously that is where the focus is).

Dealing with copyright violations is one of the harder parts of contributing to Wikipedia, so if you are unsure of how to deal with something, I would recommend leaving it to someone else. From a cursory glance at your other reviews, they seem alright for the most part.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. – Isochrone (talk) 19:10, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks @Isochrone for pointing out. I will take a break for a few days and go through the policies once again before contributing again. Leoneix _(talk) 03:59, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
