Template:Elegy to a Russian Genius
I have deleted this page because of "©Florian Weinhold aka JJ A Bobbins" at the foot. Please read Copy-paste - Wikipedia cannot accept copyright material. Merely attributing material to its author does not avoid a copyright violation for anything longer than a brief illustrative quotation. Anything posted in Wikipedia is released under the CC-BY-SA license which means that readers may copy, modify and re-use for any purpose including commercial.

Incidentally, even apart from the copyright issue, a template is not the place for material like that. A template is a Wikipedia page created to be included in other pages. Templates usually contain repetitive material that might need to show up on any number of articles or pages. They are commonly used for boilerplate messages, standard warnings or notices, etc.

Article creation
Hi! I would like to ask that if you create an article, that you try to flesh it out more and fill it with more sources. Ideally the article should have enough sources to establish notability, which the article for It Doesn't Hurt Me lacked. It also lacked a lot of context to let anyone know what the article was about- which nearly ended with the article's deletion. Luckily a search hit gave me enough information to guess (probably correctly) what the article was about, but you shouldn't rely on someone making a lucky guess about an article. You really need to include something about the subject of the article, even if it's a one line sentence- although again, ideally you would write enough to show not only what the article is about but to also prove notability. In any case, I was wondering if you spoke Russian and if so, if you could look for sources for the film. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   07:41, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
