Anatol Petrytsky

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Anatol Petrytsky, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.encyclopediaofukraine.com/pages/P/E/PetrytskyAnatol.htm.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

WP:CFORK of List of Ukrainians

Please stop creating content forks. If you would like to have the article renamed, please follow requested move procedures. If you move pages by copying & pasting again, you will be blocked. Renata (talk) 13:06, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

controversial moves (and this one is clearly controversial because the new title is POV), must be discussed at WP:RM. Renata (talk) 14:21, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Just to be clear, there is a right way and a wrong way to move pages on Wikipedia. The right way is to use the "Move" function, after discussing on WP:RM if the move is controversial. The wrong way -- which is wrong whether or not the move is controversial -- is to copy the text from one page and paste it into a page with a different title, then change the old page to a redirect. Please do not ever use the copy-and-paste method, regardless of what titles are involved. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 14:58, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Civility

Good day. I hope you are well. I would like to remind you that civility is one of the core values of Wikipedia. Please, stop and reflect before making postings like this, or like the one you left on my talk page. Nothing good can come of such postings; even if you are right, you will antagonize many other users. Thank you for reading. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 17:29, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Copying or translating Wikipedia articles

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from pl:Tytus Babczyński into Tytus Babczyński. 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 edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to make a note in an edit summary at the source page as well. 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. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:07, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

While it is a great service to fill out missing articles on the English language Wikipedia, I'm afraid that content on Wikipedia (whatever language) is copyrighted. Fortunately, our license is very liberal, but you do have to clearly acknowledge your source when translating from another language Wikipedia or copying from one article to another. As the "form letter" above explains, this is relatively simple. If this is not done, the new article constitutes a copyright problem and may have to be deleted if the source cannot be positively identified. If you have translated into any other article, please add attribution in the manner described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:07, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

November 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Slovaks. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.
