Your edit to Anemia has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. 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. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. That was a lazy edit, here, copied from a published abstract. That's plagiarism, WP:PLAG, and is a violation of WP:COPYVIO. Zefr (talk) 01:34, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Conduct research before editing any WW2 related pages

In the future, you'll want to verify content with sources before making changes to pages on WW2-related materials. Such articles are usually very thoroughly researched. Otherwise, you'll often find that without academic substantiation, your edits will get reverted. Obenritter (talk) 14:14, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

@Obenritter OK, thanks for your help. Clean Arlene (talk) 01:57, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
