Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Red box (government) into Despatch box. 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. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 15:54, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Windridge & Young
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
Hello, Tchaikovskyflowers. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Windridge & Young".
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 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.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. DannyS712 (talk) 08:58, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 13
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Expulsion of the Albanians, 1877–1878, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Muhajir. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 05:58, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

September 2024
[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Radcliffe Line, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Kautilya3 (talk) 21:45, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- My edits did not include any original research, I purely reformatted the sentences, as I found the section with multiple style issues (lack of capitals, lack of spacing, and outright ungrammatical). I would suggest going and reading the section as it currently stands before reverting edits. Please explain if I have broken any other rules, because I don't see how it constitutes original research. Tchaikovskyflowers (talk) 08:27, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for responding. That entire section was unsourced, and it is getting padded by more unsourced content. I have now removed the newly added content, and tagged the old content for citations. Thanks for your work in any case. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 11:20, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
