Thank you for
your contributions. It seems that you may have added
public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as
Continuing care retirement communities in the United States. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia
guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at
Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an
attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. —

Hello. Thank you for
your contributions to
Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled " Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting
Preferences →
Editing → 
Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.
Thanks!

All these changes to a high visibility article (that many other editors are concerned with) and you're totally certain that none of us might be interested in what you're thinking? You know what I think about editors not using the edit summary? It's rude. Dawnseeker2000 01:13, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Timeline of black hole physics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Prussian Academy ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Hello CA2MI, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to
Erasmusbrug have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the
public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a
suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see
Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid
copyright and
plagiarism issues.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. https://tools.wmflabs.org/copypatrol/en/?id=58486167 Thank you.

Your submission at Articles for creation: William Speer (minister) has been accepted
Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
The article has been assessed as Stub-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. It is commonplace for new articles to start out as stubs and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.
If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider .
Thanks again, and happy editing!
SL93 ( talk) 15:53, 29 December 2020 (UTC)Hi you removed the inclinometer from the Mars helicopter article. I read the source for it being in (Balaram 2018) and it reads like its in. What's your source that it was only used on earth? Schrauber5 ( talk) 04:39, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe a misunderstanding: it's used preflight, during takeoff. But that are the helicopter flights. Schrauber5 ( talk) 05:42, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did at
Gravitational singularity, without citing a
reliable source. Please review the guidelines at
Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. -

- No problem. Looks like patching up the old intro is not a good way to go. Will have to rewrite the intro to bring it to where we are currently. Not sure if you will see this on your page. CA2MI ( talk) 19:02, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
- Make sure that your edits are backed by solid wp:reliable sources. When in doubt, best go to the article talk page first. I still have your user talk page on my watch list for a while, so whatever you write here, I'll notice. Otherwise, you can use a {{ping|DVdm}} template. - DVdm ( talk) 20:06, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

I reverted your change at Surface gravity. The "short description" is supposed to be short, not a run-on sentence. Tarl N. ( discuss) 06:34, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from
Gravitational wave background into another page. 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. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at
Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. –
