Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Microsoft Hearts. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Jasper Deng (talk) 23:16, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

Hi.

I am moving the reply here, because that talk page will be deleted soon. Anyway...

No problem bro. I understand that social media has brought about bad habits. People write poorly, use screenshots without a care for copyright, etc. Sorry. Wikipedia is the serious work. We take copyright seriously and writing must be at least mediocre. Yes, it could be shocking to work on a section for five hours and then see it deleted. (In past, it was more brutal: People wrote books on papers and sent them to publishers. After a few agonizing days, the publishers would reject them!)

But I have good news too: as longs as you learn from this and do not commit the same mistakes in the future, nobody here will take this case against you. A newcomer in Wikipedia is allowed to make the gravest possible mistakes.

Please start by reading WP:5P and make sure you don't mistakenly upload your work to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. I'll stand by to assist if needed.
