Copy/paste move of someone else's work
[edit]Hi there, well I'm sure you have done it in good faith, the article that you created Dale Johnson (footballer) with a copy/paste is a copyright violation. The editor who created that article had created it in their personal userspace and had deliberately elected not to have the article in actual article space so that they could work on it. Please read Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. It is never ok to simply copy/paste someone else's work without proper attribution, especially when you haven't asked the editor. I have tagged the article for what is called a "histmerge" so that the histories of the articles are merged and proper attribution is given. Please do not do something like this again, as it is a copyright violation and you can be blocked from editing for violating copyright. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me.
