Hello and welcome to the Simple English Wikipedia. I have undone your change to Wikipedia, because it is incorrect. I understand that this project may appear to be for "less educated people", but that is a biased view. People who do not speak English fluently are not "less educated"; they have merely not received the same type of education you have. As that is the target audience of this Wikipedia, your statement is untrue. Thank you for adding relevant information, and I invite you to expand any of our articles if you feel they appear inaccurate or overly simplified, bearing in mind that they are intended to be understandable to those with a basic control of English.

OK sorry. 202.154.144.239 (talk) 07:13, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but an article you created was directly copied and pasted from the main English Wikipedia. Please do not do that, as such articles are usually too complex and may have templates that do not exist here. Thank you. Also, there are multiple copyright issues with that. See WP:How to copy from another Wikipedia for more information. sonia 07:20, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't just copy and paste it, edited it after to make it simpler so please can you add it back? 202.154.144.239 (talk) 07:22, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, okay. The problem in this specific case was that you copied what was shown on the article, without hitting "edit" and copying the wikicode. This made it look rather broken. What I'm going to do now is import the article for you to work on. Would you be all right with that? sonia 07:24, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes of course, thankyou very much :) 202.154.144.239 (talk) 07:25, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. You can find it at City of Dunedin Choir, ready for simplifying. Thank you! sonia 07:44, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
