Wikipedia talk:Articles for creationBradwardine and District Timeline

Dear Tyndalstone: Your article above seems to indicate that you have copied the text from a book. Is this the case? —Anne Delong (talk) 03:35, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Anne Yes, it was adapted from the Bradwardine and District History book published in 2003 in honour of the Bradwardine Centennial. I come from Bradwardine; my father farmed there. Ghost towns have a history. I want people to know that Bradwardine and District is more than a ghost. This area was once a vibrant, thriving community. I'm a first time submitter (probably the only time!) to Wiki, so am having a lot to learn about submitting information, and in replying to User Talk.

Dear Tyndalstone: Using information from a published book is great, as long as you include a citation about the book. Using the text from the book, though, is not allowed for legal reasons, and your article will be deleted, so if you have copied whole sentences or more right from the book, please rewrite the sentences in your own work, and make sure that you have a copy of your typed information on your own computer in case your article is deleted before you finish changing it. I hope that you will continue to make contributions to Wikipedia. Here's an article that I added recently: The Gut (geological feature) —Anne Delong (talk) 22:36, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Anne thank you for your feedback. Re: Source: I DO indeed know about plagerism. I DID at the end of the article I submitted state that what was submitted was an "adaptation from" and cited the name of the source of the information, including the publisher, page numbers, and the year of publication. I will go through each line again (tomorrow) to make sure each sentence was not copied word for word from the original. Since it is a timeline, this may be difficult, but I'll give it my best shot.
