Pasting text from other sites
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text takn from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your copy-and-paste of the Haunted Hollow's description (taken word for word from the Alton Towers website) has been removed.

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, and under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribute Share-Alike."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the "Help Desk". You can also leave a message on my talk page. --McGeddon (talk) 16:21, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Class 92/CC 92000
Hello Maccer, thank you for your edit to the Velim railway test circuit. Your edit is accurate, although the stated text "Class 92/CC 92000" was also accurate before, as CC 92000 is the French designation for these locomotives. Hope that helps! And thank you. —Sladen (talk) 11:36, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
