Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Zghasemkhani, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Elysia and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

A note about close paraphrasing
[edit]Hi, I noticed that some of your editing has what we call "close paraphrasing". You are modifying the wording used by the source, but much of the wording remains unchanged. Excessively close paraphrasing is known as plagiarism and copyright violation, and gets deleted from Wikipedia. A good way to avoid excessively close paraphrasing is to read the source while taking notes. Then you can write from your notes.
All contributions to Wikipedia are checked by automatic plagiarism detection software, so please be careful to put things in your own words in the future. Thanks, Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:20, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
