Hello[change source]

Just wanted to mention to you that you want to make sure you aren't just copying from en.wiki and actually rewrite the articles in simple english. As it stands the last few articles your copied over will need to be deleted because they are copyright violations unless you link specifically in your edit summary to the version of the enwiki page you copied them from. -DJSasso (talk) 16:46, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Summary[change source]

Hi Maarcis, when you make an edit, can put what you have done in the summary box under the edit window. For example with Brian Epstein you would write "Added infobox". It helps other editors checking the "Recent changes" know who has changed things and what they have done. Thanks, --Peterdownunder (talk) 09:08, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Copying EN info[change source]

We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but "List of R&B musicians" 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. I've noticed that the majority of your edits are copy and pastes of English Wikipedia information. Please take a look at Wikipedia:How to copy from another Wikipedia for information on how to do this properly. Either way (talk) 13:12, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to make bad pages, you will be blocked from changing. Either way (talk) 16:27, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Maarcis - copying and pasting of articles from the English Wikipedia is not allowed here for two main reasons. Firstly there is copyright issues, and secondly they are too complex for this Wikipedia. if you wish to simplify and article from the enwiki, paste it into your sandbox and simplify it there. You can then paste it into the article space. if you do not know how to do it, ask and I will tell you. If you keep doing what you are doing we will have to block you. --Peterdownunder (talk) 12:25, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please note: you're copying from the English Wikipedia again. Please stop. If you continue, you may be blocked. Thanks, Majorly talk 13:53, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but "Power pop" was directly copied and pasted from the main English Wikipedia.

Robert Doornbos[change source]

Hi, the article Robert Doornbos needs to assert notability. You told us that he was a driver, but why is this notable. Achievements would help, something along that line. Without it, it meets criteria for quick deletion. When you are ready, I can restore it for you. Thanks, NonvocalScream (talk) 01:35, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Same for Ole Bull. Thanks, NonvocalScream (talk) 01:37, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
