Please provide WP:reliable sources to support your edits to the jade article. Also, please note there are two types of jade: jadeite and nephrite, and much of the details belong on those articles. Vsmith (talk) 18:27, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for providing references for your edits on the jade article. Problem is that part of your addition was a copyviolation from the source. I've removed the direct copy, however you need to look closely at your edits to make sure that your additions are in your words and not copied directly or worded to closely to that of the references. Please carefully read WP:copyvio. Vsmith (talk) 00:09, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
