==Disambiguation link notification for July 19==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Foreign policy of the Ronald Reagan administration]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[The Hill]]<!-- ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Foreign_policy_of_the_Ronald_Reagan_administration check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Foreign_policy_of_the_Ronald_Reagan_administration?client=notify fix with Dab solver])-->. Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these [[User:DPL bot|opt-out instructions]]. Thanks, [[User:DPL bot|DPL bot]] ([[User talk:DPL bot|talk]]) 05:57, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Copyright problem icon Your edit to Foreign policy of the Ronald Reagan administration has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. — Diannaa (talk) 22:05, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Diannaa, I'm somewhat new to this, can you please help me understand how that was a copyright violation if I cited the source? Did I just need to paraphrase instead of quote? Did WP complain? Also, did you archive my previous edits so they can't be reverted too again? They're all greyed out. I'm very confused what happened here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HazelBasil (talkcontribs) 22:36, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's not okay to copypaste text from elsehere, even if you cite your source. Everything you add to Wikipedia needs to be written in your own words please. The revisions containing the copyright material were hidden from view under under criterion RD1 of the revision deletion policy, and that's why you can't access them any more. — Diannaa (talk) 13:26, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
