[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Cold Sassy Tree (opera), may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless that text is available under a suitable free license. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

- Hi Diannaa! Nice to meet you and thanks for your message. I'm happy to contribute when and where I can. I was trying to find a way to add a reference. Most of my material I submitted was paraphrased from the opera plot. All opera pages on Wikipedia have a 'Synopsis' section (which is a plot) but for some reason 'Cold Sassy Tree' did not. I'm not sure why but I did try to add one. I hope it worked out ok.
- Thanks,

- Sorry, I had to remove it, because most of what you added was copied from somewhere else. That's not allowed. — Diannaa (talk) 02:26, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
