Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
edit Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from 1991 Houston Oilers season into 1991 Denver Broncos season. 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. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. โ Diannaaย ๐ย (talk) 21:16, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
Fair enough, didn't occur to me for some reason. Almost certain that was the first time I did that. I generally only make small edits for clarity and add appropriate links where needed.
Only reason I felt compelled to exert myself to the extent I did that time was because I am a huge Bronco fan and not having that great victory noted on said page for the Broncos seemed a tragic oversight that demanded rectification for the balance of the universe.
Actually more I think about it the more I can't believe that didn't occur to me. I know better. I'm fully aware of how attribution works, simply because I didn't think to apply it is no excuse. Not even so much for the actual minimal damage caused in this case, but simply because I'm smarter than that.
Ian Curtis โโ
editI reverted your edits to Ian Curtis because you seemed to be adding snowmen (โโ) to the text for unclear reasons. But on closer inspection your edits appear to be in good faith so I should not have reverted them with the rollback tool. I'm sorry for that. Haukur (talk) 15:59, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
Yeah I got why you did it lol. I couldn't for the life of me figure out why that was happening. Something to do with my phone and Firefox I guess. I tried repeatedly to fix it myself. But it kept putting in paragraphs twice and adding those (snowmen?). By the time you came around and reverted it I was giving up anyway.
Editing on the phone is kind of a pain anyway for anything more than just plain text. Then later I realized I probably could have just cleaned up the snowmen (is that what they were? I was thinking they were mouse faces or something heh). Using the full editor instead of the visual one.
I appreciate you letting me know though.
