If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

Copying licensed material requires proper attribution

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Leura, New South Wales you included material from a webpage that is available under a Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 Generic Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this legal requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:32, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I see by your addition to Bowen, Queensland that you are still not adding the required attribution, as required by the terms of the Creative Commons licensing. Please lave a look at this edit to see how it is done. Please let me know if you have any questions. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:03, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

2016 census

Hello, Wikipedia has an article at 2016 Australian census, so that'd be a better linking destination for the 2016 census than the 2016 section of the Census in Australia article. I've fixed the link you added to the Charters Towers page. Graham87 15:19, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! 220 of ^ßorg 08:09, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
