Perth Observatory

I have reverted your edit to this page because:

Much of your text is a straight copy paragraph by paragraph from the document “Perth Observatory History” by Moredoundt. This is a serious problem for the article. Please read WP:COPYVIO and WP:COPYPASTE
Most of the text you have provided is not referenced. Please read WP:INCITE and WP:WHENNOTCITE. Have a look at a well referenced article such as Australia, which has a combination of citation styles.

I suggest you use the Cite templates on the edit toolbar to create your citations - it would make it a lot easier

Normally I would fix it myself, but the copy-paste problems make that too big a job. regards John beta (talk) 04:05, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
