Hello, I'm Northamerica1000. I noticed that you recently removed some content from British School of Nanjing without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Close paraphrasing
Your addition to British School of Marbella has been removed or altered, as it appears to closely paraphrase https://bsm.org.es/british-school-marbella/school/introduction, a copyrighted source. Limited close paraphrasing or quotation is appropriate within reason, so long as the material is clearly attributed in the text. However, longer paraphrases which are not attributed to their source may constitute copyright violation or plagiarism, and are not acceptable on Wikipedia. Such content cannot be hosted here for legal reasons; please do not upload it. You may use external websites or printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If you own the copyright to the text, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the copyright but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Thank you. North America1000 07:56, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of The British School of Brasilia


The article The British School of Brasilia has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * "Opening in August 2016" - WP:CRYSTAL without sources to credibly justify the article's creation.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * The best way to improve this article in the short term will be to add a third party source about the school. Almost any news item or press release would be sufficient at this point to remove the WP:PROD tag. giso6150 (talk) 15:22, 25 March 2016 (UTC)
