Your recent edits related to Meadows Golf Center
Hello. I've recently removed a few of your edits and would like to explain why I did so.

I noticed you added a statement on Meadows Golf Center to Margaretville, New York but under the Geography section. As a business doesn't fit under Geography I removed this statement. Also, there is very little information on business in this article on a city. So it seems best to leave this off entirely, unless it is one of the main features of the city. And even if that is the case, you will need references to back it up. Your original edit did not include a citation to justify that. Please see WP:NOTABILITY.

You also added an external link to Meadows Golf Center website in Upstate New York, but not under the external links section. The section you added it to is only for links to other articles. I therefore removed it. Please see WP:ELCITE for the proper place to add external links. Also, I question weather a link to this business is suitable for an article on the entire region. Please see WP:LINKSTOAVOID. And again, the notability requirements apply.

Are you perhaps somehow connected with Meadows Golf Center? If so please carefully read WP:COI before making any further edits related to it. I hope this explanation is helpful to you. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Desertborn (talk) 18:00, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Rfinaldi! Your additions to First Council of Constantinople have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Requesting copyright permission.) 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. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. 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, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 19:53, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Graham Hancock. Doug Weller talk 10:05, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
