Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Slapstick Festival, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:
 * Copying text from other sources
 * Policy on copyright
 * Frequently asked questions on Wikipedia's copyright policy
 * Policy and guideline on non-free content

If you still have questions, there is the Teahouse, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

Help me!
Please help me with... It says my edits contained copyrighted material? All I added was text from the wikipedia pages of the guests I added to a new section on the slapstick festival. I either wrote the text myself or got it from other wikipedia pages so im confused as to why it has been removed? SeamusDignan (talk) 15:36, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I randomly checked entries from your additions, and not a single one was directly found in any Wikipedia page. As soon as it's no longer directly copied, it's a new copyrighted work and thus a violation to post it here. If you want more help, change the help me-helped back into a help me, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.
