== Wikipedia and copyright ==

[[File:Control copyright icon.svg|30px|link=|alt=Control copyright icon]] Hello AsteriodX! 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, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double [[quotation mark]]s (") and cite the source using an [[Wikipedia:Inline citation|inline citation]]. You can 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.{{#ifeq: | 1 |</strong>}}
*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 [[derivative work|copyright problems]], so it is not permitted here; see [[Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing]]. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verify]] the information and to demonstrate that the content is not [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]].{{#ifeq: | 2 |</strong>}}
*We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. [[Fair use]] images must meet all ten of the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|non-free content criteria]] in order 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 [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright#Can I add something to Wikipedia that I got from somewhere else?|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, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|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. <!-- Template:uw-copyright-new --> [[User:Chipmunkdavis|CMD]] ([[User talk:Chipmunkdavis|talk]]) 02:52, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

Ethiopian History

Hey there! The sources you asked for can be found if you touched the Kingdom(s), they are all hyperlinked and redirected via the touch single if you so choose. Its well document that D'mt was the first form of Ethiopia government documented well, and the Kingdom of Aksum around 150 BC, you can find the sources if you touch the respective page. Its generally considered appropriate if you leave alone and add a citation on the Country section, unless its GDP statistics, since again Hyperlinks exist if you want to find about such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CtasACT (talkcontribs) 00:04, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @CtasACT:, you recently restore your previous edit to the infobox's establishment section in the article Ethiopia. I understood your reason but you must be aware of citing references (not necessary to the establishment section, but you must demonstrate why you added D'mt and Axum before the Ethiopian Empire in edit summary. Edit summary is useful to validate your edit assertion by adding meaningful reason. So, I'm fine for your message. :) AsteriodX (talk) 14:53, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your recently created article

Hi, first I'd like to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia in a much-neglected area. I'm very happy to see constructive contributors help in areas where the majority of Wikipedia users may not have the relevant expertise or language proficiency.

I've done some copyediting and grammar fixes to the article that you created, Educational crisis in Ethiopia since 2020. I do, however, have some questions I want to ask of you.

I can't seem to find any particular educational crisis article of another country; usually they are a section in articles of the form [education] in [country]. Is there a reason why you decided to split this one out in particular / do you know of any other examples of articles of the same type? I'm fairly certain that the article on its own passes the general notability guidelines, but I'm not entirely sure if the current title is the best one, or if a move or merge is the best option. Of course, you are free to add sources and content to the article if you do plan to, or to further define the scope of the article you plan to cover.

Once again thank you for your contributions, and I hope you do decide to stay long-term. Fermiboson (talk) 22:22, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for admiration Mr. Fermiboson. I'm glad to see your encouragement for Wikipedia contribution. I created Educational crisis in Ethiopia since 2020 yesterday after evaluating the content size of Education in Ethiopia, which is too large to add additional section and information. In addition, I realized that the recent educational crisis in Ethiopia has been widely covered by numerous news sources. The coverage is far important than the historical failure of education before, which is merely covered in Education in Ethiopia. For example, I found a source quoting "Since 2020, the education sector has faced significant difficulties due to the closure of schools caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Similar to many other countries worldwide, the Ethiopian government made the decision to shut down schools after the first reported case was identified in Addis Abeba on 16 March, 2020."
So, I've decided to merge the article with Education in Ethiopia, but the article seemed to me important because of it is "unprecedented educational catastrophe" described by ReliefWeb, Addis Standard and other notable news sources. If you have further idea, let me know. AsteriodX (talk) 14:22, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the reply. I've tagged the article as reviewed for now, feel free to continue improving the article. Fermiboson (talk) 14:24, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
