Mirrors
Thanks for contributing to the article Botswana University of Agriculture and Natural Resources. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. Kuru  (talk)  21:04, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

Recent edit reversion
In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.) If you think my edit was mistaken, please politely let me know and I will investigate. S Philbrick (Talk)  21:24, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm -Alabama-. An edit you recently made to Tswapong Hills seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -Alabama- (talk) 15:24, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Mirrors (2)
Hi LilianaLetshabo, thank you for your contributions! A few months ago, you were asked to be careful to avoid "Wikipedia mirrors", websites that copy Wikipedia's content, when adding sources. In a couple of your recent edits, you have used thtsearch.com and betsapi.com as sources. Both of those are Wikipedia mirrors; betsapi has a correct attribution (they say that they take their text from Wikipedia), while thtsearch is unattributed, but this is a copy of the Wikipedia article Conservative Alliance of Zimbabwe, and so it cannot be used as a source.

As a rule of thumb, if you are looking for a source for a statement in Wikipedia, and find a website that contains the exact same text, structured in the exact same way, as the Wikipedia article, it is almost certainly a mirror. This information page is good reading about how to spot and avoid mirrors. Happy editing! --bonadea contributions talk 16:08, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
