Copyright problem on Mahmoud Freihat

[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Franchise Tax Board of California v. Hyatt into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. MrClog (talk) 13:12, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
- Not sure how to fix this. I copied the file format from Franchise Tax Board of California v. Hyatt. All the content is new, except the further reading, which applies to both cases as they are linked. I do not understand exactly what you are talking about for the template. I don't do a lot of coding so if I have to learn more I probably will just not contribute. It was easy to copy the template, but I do not understand much of what is there. Sorry.AKveteran (talk) 15:43, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
- The easiest thing to do is looking at Template:Infobox SCOTUS case. It has an explanation there which shows what to fill in where. Good luck and thanks for contributing! --MrClog (talk) 14:29, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
