Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, please cite a reliable source for your addition.

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Maple leaf eh, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Connormah (talk) 23:08, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 6
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sherbrooke Hussars, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Authie. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:42, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The edit is required to identify a battle that occurred in the village of Authie in the context of the name as a proper noun. The original link to the village is benign and unimaginative. What happened in that village is important to the veterans of The Sherbrooke Fusilier Regiment in 1944.

Non-free rationale for File:D2 MOW-OUI 028.pdf
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:D2 MOW-OUI 028.pdf. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 12:46, 25 October 2015 (UTC) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The image on the page is a Government of Canada official record, freely displayed on the internet for historic research. "Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because the photo and its historical significance are the object of discussion in the article." The individuals involved are almost guaranteed to be deceased, and the information shown is clearly in the public interest.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hello, I'm BilCat. I noticed that you made a change to an article, INSAS rifle, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

If spelling is going to be that "weird" Canadian English, then add EngvarC to the article. This will tell scripts and other tools to use Canadian English. I hope you have time between stops at Timmy's to add it. :) Bgwhite (talk) 21:46, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

In response to the email you sent me
I meant no offence by changing the word 'honourary', and I did not ignore the fact that the article was written in Canadian english. You listed 'armour, colour, centre, and honour' as examples that people had tried to change in the past but 'honourary' is different because it only occurs in Canadian english and even then is only considered an 'alternative spelling' to the preferred 'honorary'. I have seen older editing disputes related to the word ruled in favour of 'honorary' and I should point out that 'honourary' is included in the Wikipedia Typo Team's list of common misspellings.

Here is a link to a Canadian government website stating that 'honorary' is the preferred adjectival form of 'honour'.

Also, I perceived some hostility in your email and I'd just like to say I understand your point of view, and remind you that we are on the same team in that making Wikipedia better is a shared objective.

Please respond on my talk page if you feel the need to do so.

Unspecified source/license for File:Unidentified personnel with Ram II tanks of the Sherbrooke Fusiliers Regiment, England, 18 July 1943.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Unidentified personnel with Ram II tanks of the Sherbrooke Fusiliers Regiment, England, 18 July 1943.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images.

If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time after the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like PD-self (to release all rights), (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Sherbrooke Hussars
Hi, your revert on Sherbrooke Hussars here is not helpful. The bot isn't doing anything besides removing a dead link to an already deleted file. All your reverts are doing are just re-adding a non-existent filename back into the article. Explicit is the one that deleted your file, so if you want to contest the deletion, you will need to contact him. Please do not continue to revert the bot's valid edits.

George Harold Baker
Hi, Maple leaf. I removed your contributions at George Harold Baker Samuel Simpson Sharpe because they weren't cited to a reliable source. Per WP:UGC, user-generated content like that at WikiTree isn't robust enough to be used as a source on Wikipedia (unless it's WP:ABOUTSELF). In order to re-add that information, you would need something like a contemporary newspaper, a history book, some sort of document from the Canadian military, or just anything that's reliable. As an example, you could use this source from The Canadian Press.  TheTechnician27  (Talk page)  21:55, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
