Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from San Francisco State University into History of San Francisco State University. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 03:12, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Will do. Also, what if the original contributor was me? Mariwlqs (talk) 03:56, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
If the only contributor was yourself, then it's not required (but would still be helpful to note in the edit summary just so other editors know which article the text is originating from). If the original contributor was yourself, and then other editors made additional changes and/or copyedits on top of that, then attribution is needed.

I see. Thank you. Mariwlqs (talk) 07:32, 6 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
