Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Draft:Sherman Gillums, Jr.. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Plagiarism, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 12:39, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
