User talk:Get quad

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. —Angr 10:05, 21 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Okay, since the website now says it's GFDL, the text can be used here, so I've restored the text. (It does still have to explicitly say that the website is the source of the text, though!) I also restored Image:Tom monroe pose01.jpg and gave it the same tag the other two images have. A birthday present of a Wikipedia article is a great idea, but it still has to conform to Wikipedia's policies on article content. For one thing, it has to be neutral in tone, which means no gushing language like calling him a "living legend". It also means writing in an encyclopedic style, so no using slang like "he was psyched". And the information presented has to be verifiable by means of reliable sources that you cite. Please look at Biographies of living persons for more specific information. You might look also at WikiProject Biography for hints on how to write a good biographical article. —Angr 08:34, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
