Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}, |
|||
It seems to me that an article you worked on, [[:List of New York Institute of Technology faculty and staff]], may be copied from http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ph/nyit/where.html. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about [[Wikipedia:Copy-paste|copying from other sites]]. |
|||
It's important that you [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title={{urlencode:List of New York Institute of Technology faculty and staff}}&action=edit edit the article] and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at [[WP:help desk|the help desk]] who are happy to assist you. |

Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia!{{z18}} [[User:MadmanBot|MadmanBot]] ([[User talk:MadmanBot|talk]]) 23:09, 10 September 2013 (UTC) |

- 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 so.
- 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.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
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!Template:Z129
