Lactantius
Hi, thanks for adding the link to the Lactantius article. I've had to cut down some of the text for copyright reasons. Because Wikipedia is freely reusable by anyone for any purpose, all text has to be original, or verifiably freely licensed. That means you can't copy text from a non-free source, even if you're the author of the original text. If the source page has a Wikipedia-compatible Creative Commons licence, then it's okay to copy text over (and credit the source) but the source page in this case had a normal copyright statement. Hope this is clear and I hope you'll keep contributing. To improve the Lactantius article, I've added a page scan from Opera. Cheers, MartinPoulter (talk) 09:04, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
