Some of your recent edits did not include an edit summary (that's the box I added here, to the right). Put a brief summary of the action you took on the page in the edit summary box before submitting so that other editors know what you worked on. You can see other editors' summaries by going to the page history.

Also that little checkbox for "minor" edits is to designate that an edit was purely superficial, such as fixing a typo. If adding new text or images, an editor might potentially find the change controversial, and such edits should not be marked as minor. If you have any questions, feel free to reply right here, since I'm watching this page. Take care czar ♔ 16:04, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing and plagiarism

Hi Caroline, in reviewing some of the class's recent edits, I noticed that your edits to 1850s in Western fashion had some very close paraphrasing to its source. I've removed the text for now. Remember that edits should be a completely original paraphrase and not have substantial similarity to the text (using the same wording and changing the occasional word), which could constitute copyright infringement. Additionally, that source does not meet WP's reliable source criteria, particularly because it lacks editorial oversight. I would recommend using a book from the library or a site recommended by your prof for now. Let me know if I can help with any of this. czar ♔ 05:14, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
