April 2013

Hello, I'm The Wikimon. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to The Carrie Diaries (TV series)‎ because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! The Wikimon (talk) 13:17, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Arrow series overview

Hello, I have reverted your overview table (3 times) for a few reasons. First, the page already has an episode table, so we don't need a table that has the season premiere and finale just above (or below) it. It's redundant. Secondly, with only 1 season, we don't need an overview table period because those are used when there are many seasons that you need to show off at the same time (we're talking more than 4 seasons). We also don't have DVD information anyway, and when we do it will probably have its own section.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 13:08, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

I second this RobstenFan. Too early for that information. I would add that when a second season is commissioned the episode list will get it's own page, and then, the sort of information you have been added can be added. Hope that helps and clears up any more misunderstandings. MisterShiney ✉ 19:03, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Hello Robsten Fan, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied without attribution. If you want to copy from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. AussieLegend (✉) 16:05, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
