Shrine of Our Lady of Mount Grace
Hello. I saw your work on Shrine of Our Lady of Mount Grace. I'm glad that you have created (well, almost created) the article. There are a couple of things that you will need to look at. Some of it may be covered by links in the "Welcome" template above.
 * Currently you are working on the article's Talk page which I think is probably a mistake, and you need to be on the article page itself. Putting up article content on a Talk page doesn't work. Compare, say, Rievaulx Abbey with Talk:Rievaulx Abbey: the former is an article about a monastic house and the latter is a bunch of editors talking about improvements to that article. The two aren't interchangeable.
 * The text that you have put on the Talk page appears to be a wholesale copyright infringement of this website. You seriously can't leave it like that: even if you own the source, you still have to deal with that, not by just copying/pasting the text. Please have a look at WP:COPYVIO which is our page about this issue. I'm not an expert in this field but I am sure that the page will lead you to sources of help, or you can ask for help in the Teahouse. If you don't deal with it, it will be deleted fairly quickly and it might become more difficult for the article to be tried again, as administrators get fed up redoing the same deletion.
 * If we look at Shrine of Our Lady of Mount Grace at the moment we see in the header material that the article was previously deleted as a copyvio (sorry about the jargon!) on 31 August ... same website, same problem, maybe you or someone else had a previous attempt. You will need to investigate how to avoid this just happening again, which it will if it looks to editors as if you are reusing text without permission. Sorry if this sounds a bit of a downer but I am sure you will see how the encyclopaedia needs to protect itself against the risk of legal action for infringing someone's copyright ... I think it is one of the principal nightmares around here.
 * Finally, and it's less of a Big Issue and more of an editing point, you can't give Wikipedia articles as if they were references ... we are not a Reliable Source! What you can do, though – and it looks like this might be what you need for the articles you have quoted – is just to put a double pair of square brackets round the text you want to link. Thus to link Mount Grace Priory you would type Mount Grace Priory and it would appear as Mount Grace Priory – and there's your link right in the text. I've done a couple in the first paragraph of the near-article as a demonstration.

I hope that with a bit of help you will be able to create an article which covers the topic and does not give you or Wikipedia copyright headaches; I hope that these comments have helped. With all good wishes, DBaK (talk) 21:44, 26 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Update: Oh well, I see that someone has speedily deleted the Talk page. They didn't need to look at the copyvio issue, just at the fact that it was the Talk page of a nonexistent page – this meets one of our criteria (G8) for speedy deletion. I won't go back and correct what I wrote above to take account of this but I am sure you can modify your reading of it appropriately. If/when you attempt to recreate the article you will still need to bear the copyvio problem in mind. I think I am done with this for now. With best wishes DBaK (talk) 07:01, 27 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Update: Many thanks for the feedback. It had originally been posted by somebody else and then deleted but with little information saying why which is whay I redrafted and re-posted.  Your comments are very helpful so, I'll incorporate and try again. Many thanks DVD 2017 (talk) 08:19 27 September 2017 (BST)


 * Brilliant, good luck with that and thanks for the message. I'll look forward to seeing it. Cheers DBaK (talk) 15:59, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
