I've reverted your edits for two reasons. First, they were a copyright violation. If you were to rewrite it so it wasn't what we call copyvio, it would have to look very different from the original, not just a paraphrase. |

But even if you did, the website fails our criteria at [[WP:RS]]. If you disagree you can ask at [[WP:RSN]]. |

Sorry that no one gave you a welcome message earlier, you somehow slipped through the cracks. [[User:Dougweller|Dougweller]] ([[User talk:Dougweller|talk]]) 18:15, 21 October 2011 (UTC) |
Revision as of 18:15, 21 October 2011
Welcome
- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to .
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!
