August 2018
[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages 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.
You should discuss this on Talk:Alt-right first. Thank you. Grayfell (talk) 02:01, 6 August 2018 (UTC) Grayfell (talk) 02:01, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
- Am I free to repost it with credit? Sorry. IcierJacks (talk) 02:01, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
- Technically yes, but why? Having multiple instances of the exact same information is a headache for a lot of reasons, so there really needs to be a very good reason to do this. Again, please discuss this on the article's talk page. Grayfell (talk) 02:04, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
Unite the Right rally
[edit]There's a BIG bannerover the page when you edit. It says: "must not reinstate any challenged (via reversion) edits without obtaining consensus on the talk page of this article". I strongly suggest you read up on discretionary sanctions and the one revert rule. One might get blocked for what you just did. Kleuske (talk) 18:57, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- I only reinstated the part that he did not object to. The main point of contention, on whether they wanted to establish a whites-only America, was not reinstated. Is that what you are referring to? If so, I'm aware. Thanks for the heads-up. IcierJacks (talk) 20:27, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- In short... Don't. Articles like this are under discretionary sanctions for a reason. Editing them is a minefield, sometimes. Especially for newbies. Kleuske (talk) 22:19, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 13
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Unite the Right 2, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vox (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.)
