CFAV Barkerville, CFAV Canso, and CFAV Stella Maris
Hi there, thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made these three articles which look like near-exact duplicates of each other, so please make sure you clarify how they are different as soon as possible and use WP:RELIABLE sources.

I would also recommend incubating articles in the WP:DRAFT space to make sure they are ready for public viewing. Thank you! TLA (talk) 02:49, 18 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello,
 * I'm new to editing articles. I wanted to create a new article for the Naval Large Tugs. Couldn't find a way until recently to create that article but was able to create separate articles for each tug. Not sure how to link those separate ships into that one article now though. Besides the names all those tugs carry the same specs and are all mentioned together in the article references i provided which is why they have so little difference besides the history of their naming.

 * I see what you mean. Do you want to maybe start a draft at Draft:Naval_Large_Tug and copy paste all the content from the three articles into that? And you can create a section for each tugboat. After that we can publish and it would look great. Let me know if you need help with that. TLA  (talk) 03:39, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Pilotdansidd11! While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.


 * 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 cite the source using an inline citation. 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. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Donating copyrighted materials.
 * 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation.

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, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:37, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

CFAV Canso moved to draftspace
Thanks for your contributions to CFAV Canso. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and those sources need to be reliable and independent of the source. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 22:01, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
