My Experience on Wikipedia and Content Appearing on Other Sites

Some time ago, I wrote an article on Wikipedia. The article was later deleted by Wikipedia, and when I tried to recreate or save changes, I kept encountering errors and could not save my work.

After that, I discovered that content similar or identical to my writing appeared on another website. Strangely, when the link was visited, it showed Error 500, meaning the copied version appeared in search results but could not be accessed by visitors normally.

Facts I Can Share

• My original article on Wikipedia was deleted, and I could not save changes due to errors.
• A copied version of my writing appeared on another website and was indexed by search engines.
• When accessed directly, the copied page displayed Error 500.
• There was an administrative connection between the reporting and deletion process on Wikipedia and the institution hosting the copied version, but I do not mention any individual, institution name, or article title here.

Evidence I Have

• Screenshots of search results showing the copied content indexed.
• Screenshots of Error 500 when trying to open the copied page.
• Logs or error messages from Wikipedia.
• Notes of the date and time of each check.

This evidence is kept privately for potential appeals or official action and is not published on the blog to maintain privacy and security.

Why This Matters

This issue is not just about visibility. It concerns copyright, information credibility, and potential conflicts of interest if those benefiting are connected to the deletion process. The spread of copied content without permission can cause the original work to lose control and create confusion for readers.

Recommended Safe Actions

• Document all evidence privately and systematically.
• Submit an appeal or request a review to Wikipedia and include proof of ownership such as prior versions or edit history.
• Contact the administrator of the website that copied the content and request removal or proper attribution in a neutral and professional manner.
• Consider copyright takedown notices or similar mechanisms applicable to the website's jurisdiction if copying without permission is confirmed.
• Keep secure copies of your work as proof of ownership.
• If necessary, consult a legal expert regarding copyright or defamation risks.

Conclusion

Mentioning specific individuals or institutions can carry legal risks even if the claims are true. Therefore, I choose to present verifiable facts, keep evidence private, and follow official channels to assert my rights. This approach protects legal safety while still raising awareness about digital plagiarism and my experience on Wikipedia.
