 * This draft more than passes the "Would it survive AfD?" test. I've gone ahead and accepted it. I agree that it could have the suggested improvement, and I'm likewise impressed with the work on this and the other two drafts. Good job! UtherSRG (talk) 14:12, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (second request)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from History of West Africa into Mechta-Afalou. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:27, 14 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Diannaa, I appreciate your diligence. However, for the previous request, as well as this request, the following would apparently apply, per Copying within Wikipedia: "Not everything copied from one Wikipedia page to another requires attribution. If the re-user is the sole contributor of the text at the other page, attribution is not necessary." Daniel Power of God (talk) 22:33, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
 * In that case attribution is not required. Sorry for the unneeded notice. — Diannaa (talk) 23:52, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
