Copy and pasting content from the USFWS
Hi. Please make sure you compose Wikipedia articles in your own words, otherwise the articles you create will have to be deleted. Viriditas (talk) 22:55, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Hello, approximately one day after warning you about copying and pasting content from other websites into Wikipedia at 22:55, 22 September, you ignored my message and proceeded to continue copying and pasting content approximately a day later, at 17:36, 23 September. To repeat myself, you may not copy-paste text from other sources into Wikipedia. You were warned once and continue to engage in plagiarism.  I will therefore escalate this problem to administrators.

Copy pasting from PD sources
Hi, BakedFWS22. While copypasting text from Public Domain sources is perfectly acceptable, there are some guidelines to observe. For the most part, your edits are correct. I notice that you added citations during this edit, but it is necessary to add an inline citation to each of the separate paragraphs so that all the text is properly attributed. Also, it is preferred that an editor include an edit summary specifically stating that they are copy-pasting and where the text comes from. This helps later on when editors try to compare the article with the sourced text. The guidelines for copypasting PD text provides more info. If you have any questions, please fell free to ask. Cheers. — Cactus Writer |   needles  10:44, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
