  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from List of starships in Babylon 5 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. 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. /wiae /tlk 11:36, 15 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hey, I see that you're removing empty sections, which on the surface, appears to be fine. However, in doing so, you're also tripping the abuse filter. Could you start using edit summaries to make it more obvious on what you're doing? Jauerbackdude?/dude. 16:28, 2 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Disregard. I don't know how I missed that you're doing just that. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 16:32, 2 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from B-wing into List of Star Wars starfighters. 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. The most important part of this process is providing an attribution edit summary at the destination article. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:10, 2 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

I see you are still not adding the required attribution, as required under the terms of the CC-by-SA license. Please have a look at this edit summary as an example of how it is done. Please leave a message on my talk page if you still don't understand what to do or why we have to do it. Thanks, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:40, 19 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to MasterCard, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. David J Johnson (talk) 11:44, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Kazakh Americans, without resolving the problem that the template refers to. This may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. Iryna Harpy (talk) 19:40, 28 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Actually, your move wasn't that WP:BOLD as there was unspoken agreement between editors that the merge take place, so I've restored your transfer of the list to the main article. Happy editing! --Iryna Harpy (talk) 19:54, 28 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
