editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Harrison Floyd, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless that text is available under a suitable free license. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:
- Copying text from other sources

If you still have questions, there is the Teahouse, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

hnbgu.net is not a reliable source for biographic information
editI just removed information from the biography of Harrison Floyd that was only backed by an article in hnbgu.net. hnbgu.net is not a reliable source for biographic information. If you feel that hnbgu.net is reliable, you can leave a comment at Talk:Harrison_Floyd#hnbgu.net_is_not_reliable_enough_for_biographic_information and we can discuss further.
