Conewago Recreation Trail
I'm disappointed, on behalf of Wikipedia that you have been editing for a couple months and no one had welcomed you.

Nice work on Conewago Recreation Trail, it looks like it is coming along nicely.

I'm here because the article shows up in the Copyright problems backlog.

I think I know why. When you started this article, you used Cumberland Valley Rail Trail as a model, and then made changes. Unfortunately, this approach meant that early versions of the article were flagged as a copyright issue. (There are some complicating factors, which I won't go into here.)

I know I personally find it useful to use something else as a model,and make changes, so I can't criticize the general approach, but when I do so, I try to do it outside of Wikipedia, so the original material isn't in the history.

I'm going to mark this as resolved, and I hope you continue editing, but please check with me if my advice is unclear.-- SPhilbrick (Talk)  01:56, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
