Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribute Share-Alike."
You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the " Help Desk". You can also leave a message on my talk page.
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages.
Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "
soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the

No, really. I'm sure you mean well, but we cannot accept your copyrighted text. If you would like to see about donating the text for our use, you can visit WP:IOWN. Please realize though that (1) your preferred text will not remain inviolate (in fact it may likely be edited moments after you put it up) and (2) the text that you are attempting to contribute is overly promotional and is therefore unsuitable for the encyclopedia (tho perfectly understandable when it comes directly from the website promoting your organization). Do not reintroduce the copyright violation text again, or I will have to block your account to prevent damage to the encyclopedia. Syrthiss ( talk) 17:44, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
I wanted to set up a discussion page about the CANARIE entry, but could not (even with the many, many pages of help provided) figure out how to do so. The entry as it exists is wildly out of date. If I continue to make minor non-copyrighted not-cut-and-paste changes, will I be okay? WynnAnne ( talk) 18:04, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. Would you mind keeping watching the CANARIE page for me? I'll make incremental changes, so you can overwrite anything that violates Wikipedia policy. WynnAnne ( talk) 18:15, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
How do I add references? I would like to cite an Industry Canada announcement. WynnAnne ( talk) 19:00, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:CANARIE bilingual logo.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk 04:43, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
I am unable to figure out how to link/insert the graphic into the CANARIE page. Any hints or tips will be greatly appreciated! WynnAnne ( talk) 16:57, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
AAaaaand, today, suddenly, it worked. I'm sure I didn't try anything different from other times. But I'm not complaining. WynnAnne ( talk) 17:11, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
