Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Shia Islam in Lebanon, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Koura (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

May 2019 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Conceptions of God, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. 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. Doug Weller talk 11:16, 26 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

March 2020 edit

  Hello, I'm Cordless Larry. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Lebanese Shia Muslims, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Cordless Larry (talk) 13:12, 15 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Middle East edit

Thanks for identifying that the source of the material in your edit was from the Wikipedia articles.

This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. However, for future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, adding the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved.

That page should also have instructions on how to add a dummy edit to add the necessary attribution. Let me know if you don't know how to do that.S Philbrick(Talk) 15:10, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Your edit to Lebanese Civil War has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from 1991 Iraqi uprisings into Shia Islam in Iraq. 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., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. 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 Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 14:00, 9 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

I must have forgotten that as I usually do attribute copied texts. My sincere apologies Diannaa, thank you for letting me know. I will definitely keep this in mind for later. Savipolo (talk) 16:13, 9 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

December 2023 edit

  Hello, I'm Geardona. I noticed that you recently removed content from Lebanese Shia Muslims without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.
