Copyright infringement

I can see that you are a new editor, but you need to know that Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously. You must not copy and paste text from sources you find on the web into articles as you did in the article Chonticha Jaengraew. I have removed the infringing text, but the material you copied is subject to copyright, as is almost everything on the web, and when creating or expanding articles, you should completely rewrite the information from the source using your own words.

Hi, thanks Cwmhiraeth This particular article Chonticha Jaengraew was part of an Amnesty/Wikimedia editathon on women human rights defenders. Usually Amnesty documents are published under creative commons licence, but this one isn't... probably the only exception (?) However the article quoted was specifically written with the editathon in mind (have you read it?) Will try to sort it out. Cheers User:Fernmat--Fernmat (talk) 13:13, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
