2012 rowing
editWould you like to explain why you have omitted the W8, LW2x, and LM4- from Great Britain at the 2012 Summer Olympics#Rowing? I believe that Rowing at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Qualification is correct, but if you think that page is wrong I'd be interested to hear your WP:RS. - David Biddulph (talk) 11:50, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
- I didn't omit I was trying to find sources for the info that you had added. Globalwheels (talk) 12:16, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
Addition to Torchwood: Miracle Day
editHi there. I undid your recent addition to Torchwood: Miracle Day because most of the text you used (Everything between "Children of Earth" and "cliffhangers") was copied 1:1 from the source in question. Such use of text is not allowed and has to be removed as a copyright violation (see Wikipedia:Copy-paste and Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing for more details). Feel free to add the information itself again using a summary of what Martins said in his review but make sure you explicitly designate his personal opinions as such (e.g. "Martins pointed out that this ending might seem strange because..." instead of "which is very strange because...").

- Not really TBH that book is a your POV, but I think it could be used in the article. Globalwheels (talk) 17:13, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- I didn't use it and didn't need to actually. I have fixed up all the issues that you presented. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 01:58, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- You've only fixed cosmetic issues. You definatly need to put the book in the refs atm are far too much assumption and OR more research needed imo. Globalwheels (talk) 18:40, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
