If you remove contents, templates, and references from Wikipedia again, as you did at Catalytic converter, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. That would not be a happy outcome; you appear interested in adding substantial material to the article, and that's terrific and definitely welcome. But dumping a (very) rough draft into the article as you did is uncoöperative and not very helpful, particularly since you removed valid content and references in the process and what you added contains a great deal of text lifted directly from the Palucka article published under copyright in Invention and Technology magazine. Content that violates any copyrights can and will be deleted; plagiarism is not permitted here. I've moved your contribution to a subpage of your own user page here so that you can please work on it, eliminate the plagiarism problem, and format and integrate the refs properly—preferably with live links to the actual sources, not just copies of bibliography items you find listed elsewhere. See CITE for how to do this; use Refgen for quick, easy, complete ref markup generation. When your contribution is in reasonably decent shape, please put it back in the article. Thanks! —Scheinwerfermann ^T·_C23:44, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Copyright

I've read the wordage you've added to the Catalytic converter article. It looks to have been pulled in full from another publication, which would place us in a copyright infringement situation. As a professional writer, editor, and publisher I take copyright infringement seriously. UrbanTerrorist (talk) 20:55, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
