Copyright block
edit{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Moonriddengirl (talk) 23:04, 8 July 2010 (UTC)- You have previously been advised of our copyright policies multiple times, beginning with this caution in 2008 to your original account. Yet I see that on July 3rd, you copied content verbatim into Cherry Creek High School from [1] and you have also copied content into Lawrence High School (Kansas) from [2]. For example, you wrote:
A three-year high school course was organized, offering only the following subjects until 1880: algebra, geometry, trigonometry, English, Latin, Greek, general history, civil government, natural philosophy, and geology. The "high school" was held in a single room of Central. In 1889, the "'Old High School'", at the southeast corner of 9th and Kentucky, was built at a cost of $35,000. It was said to be "A marvel of beauty, convenience and cheapness." In November 1889, the first school newspaper, The Mercury, was published and was released every two weeks.
- The source says:
A three-year high school course is organized, offering only the following subjects until 1880: algebra, geometry, trigonometry, English, Latin, Greek, general history, civil government, natural philosophy, and geology. The "high school" was held in one room of Central.... 1889 - The "Old High School," at the southeast corner of 9th and Kentucky, is build at a cost of $35,000, said to be "A marvel of beauty, convenience and cheapness." Nov. 1889 - First school paper, The Mercury, appears and is issued every two weeks.
- Your edits to the latter article show some effort at rewriting, but as written the bulk of the material seems to constitute an unusable derivative work of that source. I have reverted to prior to your introduction of the history. When your block expires, please make sure that you do not restore any content that is pasted from or closely paraphrases from previously published sources. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 23:04, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

editIf you are the person represented by this username, please note that the practice of blocking such usernames is to protect you from being impersonated, not to discourage you from editing Wikipedia. You may choose to edit under a new username (see information below), but keep in mind that you are welcome to continue to edit under this username. If you choose to do so, we ask the following:
- Please be willing and able to prove your identity to Wikipedia.
- Please send an email to info-en wikimedia.org. Be aware that the volunteer response team that handles email is indeed operated entirely by volunteers, and the reply may not be immediate.
If you are not the person represented by this username, you are welcome to choose a new username (see below).
A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.
You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
- Adding
{{unblock-un|your new username here}}
below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" on their talk page. - At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
- Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
