Your edits

Thank you for your recent edits. I've been doing a lot of cleanup. A few suggestions:

• Don't add external links as sources, per WP:EL.
• Churches aren't notable unless they are unique, such as having their own article, or are listed on the NRHP.
• If something has a source, there's no point removing the source to add a new one.
• Referring to cities as "towns" is confusing to readers.
• Don't add places located a mile out of a city or town to the article.
• The merging of two non-notable historical societies is not notable on Wikipedia.

Thanks! Magnolia677 (talk) 17:06, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Wild Rice Children's Home

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Wild Rice Children's Home requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.usgenwebsites.org/MNNorman/childhom.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —twotwofourtysix^{(My talk page and contributions)} 23:40, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
