Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Icon of the Seas, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:
 * Copying text from other sources
 * Policy on copyright
 * Frequently asked questions on Wikipedia's copyright policy
 * Policy and guideline on non-free content

If you still have questions, there is the Teahouse, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

Hello, I'm Epistulae ad Familiares. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Icon of the Seas have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Epistulae ad Familiares (talk) 03:42, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Icon-class cruise ship, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Epistulae ad Familiares (talk) 03:43, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

''You cannot copy a press release and just change some words even if you cite it as a source,. That is close paraphrasing and not showed. You must write it in your own words.''
