<p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{{icon|[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|30px|left|alt=Stop icon]]}}} When adding links to material on external sites{{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#if:{{{1|}}}|, as you did to [[:{{{1}}}]]}}, please ensure that the external site is not [[Wikipedia:Copyrights#Linking_to_copyrighted_works|violating the creator's copyright]]. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as [[YouTube]] or [[Sci-Hub]], where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators {{strong|will be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing}}. {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#if:{{{1|}}}|<br />
<br /><br />
If you believe the linked site is {{em|not}} violating copyright with respect to the material, then you should do one of the following:<br />
*If the linked site is the copyright holder, leave a message explaining the details {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>talk|{{{1}}}|on the article talk page}};<br />
*If a note on the linked site credibly claims permission to host the material, or a note on the copyright holder's site grants such permission, leave a note {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>talk|{{{1}}}|on the article talk page}} with a link to where we can find that note;<br />
*If you are the copyright holder or the external site administrator, adjust the linked site to indicate permission as above and leave a note {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>talk|{{{1}}}|on the article talk page}};<br />
If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, link to that site instead.}} {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#if:{{{2|}}}|{{{2}}}|}}<!-- Template:uw-copyright-link --><noinclude><br />
