Hello Ajs050208, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Human migration have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) 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 marks (") and cite the source using an 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.
• 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. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• 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 the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• 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 in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:33, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ajs050208. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Human migration, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;

• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

I'll respond to you here since I already archived my conversation in my talkpage.

Let's do this first: try to fix the English language articles are much as you can. Large chunks of it are unsourced. Try adding reliable sources to each paragraph and making sure every claim in the article is backed up by reliable sources. Once that is done, I'll take a look at it and do a translation myself. It shouldn't take me too long, but if we don't have the sources we cannot simply expect it to pass in Spanish. MX (✉ • ✎) 14:59, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Thank you for the advice, MX. This sounds like a good plan. I will work with another user to add sources throughout the English article and then will notify you when ready for your review. Also, just so you know, I also submitted an article request at es:Wikipedia:Artículos solicitados/Solicitudes/Ciencias sociales. It is unlikely to get picked up there, but I was advised to at least propose it via that platform. --Ajs050208 (talk) 15:47, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Hello, MX. Do you mind taking a look at World Migration Report and giving me your thoughts? I tried to substantiate some of the sourcing and another user tried to add some more information about the contents. At the moment, most of the claims made are confined to the report itself, and do not make specific arguments about migrants or migration. Thank you again for your time and attention. If there are any changes (subtractions/additions) that need to be made before translation, please do not hesitate to let me know. Best,--Ajs050208 (talk) 15:32, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Great, thanks for pinging me. The article does read better now and is much cleaner. My only concern is it lacks third-party sources on the subject. This is crucial to establish notability and show that you are not giving undue weight to the topic in question. It seems like most of the sources you've used are from the International Organization for Migration. That may not help our case if we create a new article in Spanish. MX (✉ • ✎) 16:07, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Thanks for the feedback, MX. I will try to diversify the sourcing, maybe with some references from external sites that use the Report in their media and research. Best, Ajs050208 (talk) 08:28, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Ok, MX. Another user and I worked on adding some sources. How does it appear now?Ajs050208 (talk) 14:59, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Any chance you can find third-party sources that describe the World Migration Report (i.e. how it is made, what includes inside it, their view of it, etc.), and not just that it has been used as a reference? The article looks good now but I'll wait for your response on this and then help with the translation. Nice job, MX (✉ • ✎) 18:50, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• That's a great idea, MX. Adding a few details along these lines will help the article. Once we have added a few more sources that discuss the assembly and perspective on the report, I will notify you and maybe we can begin with translation. Thanks again. Best, Ajs050208 (talk) 08:37, 3 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Hello MX, a critical response section has been added. Still working on a "How it's made" section that includes a diversity of sources, but do you think we could proceed with a translation now? Is it of sufficient quality? Thanks!--Ajs050208 (talk) 13:25, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Sure. Give me a few days to get the translation done. I'm working remotely so don't have the best set up (with multiple screens) to get it done quicker. But I will work on it and then create an article in Spanish. I'll let you know when it's done. MX (✉ • ✎) 18:26, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Excellent. Thank you very much, MX. Let me know if you have any questions. Best, --Ajs050208 (talk) 16:36, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• You're very welcome. I'll do it next week when I'm able to have multiple screens. Right now I only have my laptop and it's a real pain. Talk soon, MX (✉ • ✎) 00:15, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Article is finished. See here. I wasn't able to add more info in the infobox. Please let me know if you have any questions. MX (✉ • ✎) 18:51, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Many, many thanks, MX. The article looks great. Thank you for translating and for pushing to make this article more credible and better-sourced. Best, --Ajs050208 (talk) 09:38, 12 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, could translate both in german and Italian. Let me know the details. PS, I think it would be beneficial for the page's exposure and health to focus on finding translators for french Chinese and Arabic as well (as those are the languages you can find the report in so far?). If need be I could ask some talented translators on Wikipedia myself.Spaicol (talk) 19:49, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Hi Spaicol, thanks so much for the reply. A translation into German and Italian would be great. If you click through to chapters 1, 2 and 3 of the World Migration Report 2020 it appears to have the first three chapters translated into German, so that might help add to the text already in the English-version wikipedia page. Unfortunately, it looks like there is not an Italian version of the World Migration Report yet. But an Italian translation of the wiki page might still be helpful! As for your offer to contact other translators, that is very kind of you! There is already a French page, but there is still a need for translations in Arabic and Chinese. If you know anyone, please let them know about the project. Here's a link to the report. https://publications.iom.int/books/world-migration-report-2020-chapter-1 . Let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you! Ajs050208 (talk) 04:08, 19 January 2021 (UTC) Ajs050208 (talk) 04:04, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Consider this done by the end of this week. Kindest regards Spaicol (talk) 19:46, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Thank you, Spaicol! Very kind of you! Ajs050208 (talk) 12:21, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Hi, Spaicol, is there any update on the translations? I have a couple other options but wanted to check in with you first. Thanks again. Ajs050208 (talk) 04:32, 1 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
