[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Latrun, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted by ClueBot.
- Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
- Cluebot produces very few false positives, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been detected as unconstructive, please report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
- The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Latrun was changed by Kitgehrke (u) (t) redirecting article to non-existant page on 2010-01-18T08:11:36+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot (talk) 08:11, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi! Thanks for the request on my talk page. I do not consider myself to be a reviewer, so what I am about to say is not authoritative. The best advice I can give is to check everything against WP:MOS. Some thoughts are as follows:
- The lead should be a summary of the article, and should contain nothing that is in the body of the article. In this case it should certainly be longer.
- The history section is a collection of short, often unrelated items. It should read as a narrative, with longer paragraphs. It goes without saying that everything must be cited. Check on the relevance and importance of the contents; I am not convinced that a broadcast is worthy of mention.
- Ordination does not merit a separate section
- Images: there are too many, and I do not feel that a gallery is merited. The link to Commons should be sufficient - see WP:IUP
- I am not convinced that a table of the parish priests is merited.
- Sacred music. The first para reads like "puffery" and is uncited. See WP:Peacock
Sorry if this seems a bit critical but the church and its activities are worthy of an article, but it is advisable that the guidance of the MoS (not me) be followed. Best wishes and good luck. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 12:47, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 6
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited St Benedict's Church, Warrington, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Orford, Presbytery and Neo-Georgian style. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]Hello Kitgehrke, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to St. Mary's Fochabers have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. SoWhy 10:57, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
