Hehe
[edit]Hi Pianor;
I've been watching your contributions to the Hehe article. There's a lot of great information there that you've added. Another editor has expressed some concern about your contributions that I've asked him to elaborate on the article's talk page. Perhaps you can also participate there. One major concern that I have is that the wording of your contributions seem like they have been transcribed from a printed source, and you have not been providing any references for your information? That's a major sticking point here on Wikipedia; all of the sources of the information that we contribute must be cited, and we can't just copy information verbatim out of a book. Can you jump into the discussion on the article's talk page and ease our concerns? Thanks. Neil916 (Talk) 07:24, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
Its my own book on which I am still working after about 6 years. Some where I explained how that came about from a journal of a member of the German schutstruppe which then stimulated me into the ethnographic material which you have seen. I as far as I know I am permitted to copy my own work. :Norman
