Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from 2014 Isla Vista killings into Draft:Elliot Rodger. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 12:53, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Don't add unsourced material to the article. If you want to expand it, do it in a sandbox, then you can move the material later when it's sourced. Black Kite (talk) 00:13, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
 * FYI, this article is being discussed here: Administrators' noticeboard. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 01:17, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
 * OK, but since consensus was required to make the article, consensus should be required to delete the article, and should be based solely on the merits (or lackthereof) of having an article. That this article is recently new doesn't imply it's wrong. TheWikipedian05 (talk) 1:24, 5 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, TheWikipedian05,
 * Since you do care about this article, it would benefit you to participate in this noticeboard discussion which is questioning whether this page should be an article. I'm sure you have an opinion about this and it's better to be part of the discussion than to be surprised by the outcome of a discussion you've chosen not to enter. Liz Read!

Hi TheWikipedian05! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Elliot Rodger several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at Talk:Elliot Rodger, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:22, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Is it really edit warring to restore the original version of the article, as it was? Currently, the article is gone, and I don't think restoring it would qualify as edit warring. TheWikipedian05 (talk) 1:42, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

 You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for edit warring, as you did at Elliot Rodger. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:01, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
