Florida Amendment 2 criticism
Hi there. Glad to see you are contributing to Wikipedia! I noticed you added a section on criticism to Florida Amendment 2 (2016). Just a thought, this might be better placed at Cannabis in Florida and the Amendment 2 article be just for the law itself and its history. This might make better sense going forward, especially if the state legislature makes changes on their own. - Bri (talk) 18:52, 30 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi. Thanks for that suggestion. I did consider putting in the Cannabis in Florida section, though I thought it would be better served in its current location because of a few factors. The additions that I included pertain to the constitutional law and the lawmakers who drafted it, as well as the regulators who are overseeing the rules-making process for the law. The Florida Amendment 2 (2016) also contains, prior to my edits, people and organizations in favor and in opposition to the law, so I guess you could say the entirety of the Florida Amendment 2 (2016) page isn't strictly about the new law but is also defining who the lawmakers, opponents, advocates and critics of the law are, as well as the implementation of law. If the FL legislators decide to change anything regarding the new law, that's OK. I'm a cannabis advocate and activists in Florida and keep abreast of almost everything (yay Google alerts) that's happening in the state regarding cannabis legislation, and will make any necessary changes should they happen since I'm following the Florida Amendment 2 (2016) page. Again, thanks for your input. --Stevenpeters (talk) 02:55, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm assuming good faith and continue to request your contributions to Wikipedia. However I have to let you know if you are connected to a real-world entity (political campaign, cause, employer, publication, etc.) then you should take great care when writing about it or linking to it from Wikipedia. You may want to review the relevant conflict of interest guideline and the paid contributor/terms of use policy. Thanks. - Bri (talk) 21:55, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your suggestions. I most assuredly will keep them in mind moving forward. --Stevenpeters (talk) 04:52, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Arctic Apples‎. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Stevenpeters, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to MyLife have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Translation. See also Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:35, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
