So you know
If you highlight text from a different website, copy it, and paste it here, that's stealing. Please restate others' writing in your own words. If you can't or won't stop plagiarizing, like you've done at Aquaman at least twice, please just don't edit here at all.  City O f  Silver  01:46, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
 * I did not copy and paste. I have the original text on my phone from when I added it to Fandom. I am new to this and obviously am doing something wrong. So I will back out of adding so this site doesn't think I am stealing when they are my own words.
 * Please re-read the first sentence of my message. When you submitted it to that site, you surrendered your rights to it. (The same happens when you add text here.) Since it now belongs to them, using it is plagiarism.  City O f  Silver  04:07, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

Ok. I completely understand now. I'm sorry for the confusion and thank you for clarifying this for me. I will make the changes to my wording, in future edits, so as not to steal from another site.


 * I'm glad you completely understand. I'm not happy you're still using text that doesn't belong to you. Please do as you said you would and stop editing that article.  City O f  Silver  21:18, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

Actually I changed words and phrases from the original.. same tone different words. I'm not sure what it is that I am doing that is wrong, but because I am not sure I'll just leave it alone and not revise whatever you remove. Sorry for all of the difficulty I am not doing it on purpose.
