Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. 2601:188:1:AEA0:997:47FD:855B:1933 (talk) 18:44, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- In addition to the requirement that all content be supported by WP:RELIABLE sources, please read our guidelines at WP:COI and WP:NEUTRAL. What is acceptable for a blog or website posted on behalf of a subject is not acceptable for an encyclopedic entry. Thanks, 2601:188:1:AEA0:997:47FD:855B:1933 (talk) 18:48, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

- You can't merely cut content from a primary source and paste it into a Wikipedia article, as you did from here [1]. 2601:188:1:AEA0:997:47FD:855B:1933 (talk) 18:55, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
