How does X work?
{tl|helpme}} Can I use other wikipedia pages as a source for making new ones? --Cheese crackers grmoit (talk) 14:56, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Please see Verifiability, as well as the material also on that page that we don't use open wikis (such as wikipedia) as sources. Sites like ours are not "reliable, third-party published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy". Some of our articles and wonderfully accurate and reliable, but that is not generally the case. Also, even where these other bases for reliable sources are met, we prefer secondary sources to primary sources, and both to tertiary sources, which last is what all encyclopedias are including Wikipedia. So for many reasons, you may not use a wikipedia articles as a source for another Wikipedia article (but you are very welcome to look at the way other Wikipedia articles have used third party sources and use that information). Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 15:30, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * However: if what you mean is that you want to make a new article using an existing article as a sort of template for it, that should be no problem: just edit the existing Wikipedia page, copy all of the contents, then open a new article and paste the copied article in. Do be sure to edit it to reflect the new article's subject before you save it, though. :-) Tim Pierce (talk) 15:33, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, good thought Tim. That might have been the intent. Cheese, if that is the case, please make sure you remove any images from the prior page you are using that are "fair use", before posting (just click on them to see their description pages; fair use images will typically have a fair use rational provided; any image listed as from the "Commons" is not fair use and is fine to post).--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 17:47, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

How does X work?
Whenever I edit a page, it always gets deleted, no matter what. Why?
 * Maybe, it is considered as vandalism or something else. Let me check your contributions. Remember to sign your comments. You haven't done above. -- Sri niv  as  14:57, 20 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Now I know the reason, your edits aren't constructive. -- Sri niv  as  14:59, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. The Real Libs-speak politely 16:14, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. The Real Libs-speak politely 16:44, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Excuse me, but I never remember adding links to a page or spamming of any kind. There must be some sort of mistake. Cheese crackers grmoit (talk) 16:48, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
