recent edits to CCC page
Hi User:Charlottedg and User:Beantown55,

Welcome to Wikipedia. Unfortunately, I've had to revert the edits you made to the Copyright Clearance Center page. Your edits substantially replicated edits I'd previously reverted, by another editor, and I reverted them for the same reason: That you edited the substance of sentences that had references, but you left the same references in. The references supported the prior content, not your edits. This is not good scholarly practice, obviously. I've posted at length about this on the CCC talk page. The talk page is used to work through issues relating to the editing of articles. Please understand that this is not about hostility towards you or your edits, but about writing an encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not intended to be used for promotion by organizations. All content needs to be verifiable and written from a neutral point of view. You can see more about Wikipedia's policies at "the five pillars". And I encourage you to talk through the issues at CCC talk page.

I also want to flag for you that "sock puppetry" is not well-regarded. Sock puppetry is using multiple Wikipedia accounts to deceive folks about the source of edits, to disguise conflicts of interest or permit one editor to masquerade as several. Wikipedia editors are generally supposed to use one editing account, and to disclose conflicts of interest.

If you have questions, you're welcome to post them at the CCC talk page, or at my talk page -- User talk:Lquilter.

Thanks,
