Copied Material[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia Flyboyknight! I hope you enjoy editing here. Just some advice – when adding material to an article, please try to do so in your own words. Material cannot be directly copied from websites as this may constitute a Copyright violation – text on Wikipedia is released freely for a large variety of purposes, including commercial use, which will likely not please the original authors.

For this reason, I had to revert some of your edits to IAAF World Cross Country Championships, cross country running and Athletics (sport) as they used material directly from the IAAF website. Feel free to add back information in your own words. Also, in this edit you removed seemingly perfectly relevant text from the article without an explanation. When removing information from an article, it is a good idea to provide a reason why you have done so in the edit summary box.

I hope this clarifies a few things and doesn't put you off from editing! Take care. SFB 17:38, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Enough with the sandbox[edit]

Your draft article, Draft:Jessica Pixler[edit]

Hello, Flyboyknight. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Jessica Pixler".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 21:29, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
