Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that in this edit to Pellucid marginal degeneration, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 23:14, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Corneal collagen cross-linking. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:51, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- User:Diannaa I do not think this[2] is in the public domain. It is produced by Avedro, Inc. and approved by the US government. It is not written by the US government directly. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 13:18, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- I was going by the website's copyright page. I see what you mean though. Does it have to be removed as copyvio? — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:22, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- That website says "Government information at NLM Web sites is in the public domain." with the key being government". I think that stuff counts as non government information. I have paraphrased some of it so I think we are okay. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:24, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks James and Diannaa. I shouldn't have used that without any change. k18s (talk) 04:16, 8 November 2016 (UTC)
