Sources for medical topics

Hello Zetret. Welcome to Wikipedia and medical editing, such as for perspective on Ayurveda. When making substantial changes to an article (lede for Ayurveda), we need consensus among several editors, explained in WP:CON. Meanwhile, for background on choosing sources for medical content, you may find these resources below useful. Good luck; following you here if you wish to discuss. (Note: please sign and date your Talk page comments using the 'pencil' icon in the upper left of the edit box). --Zefr (talk) 20:58, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from [[:|Arranged marriage in the Indian subcontinent]] to Marriage (your addition has since been removed). 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. 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. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 23:43, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

@Diannaa Diannaa - Can you help move the content there please? It's just better to have that detail under the History section. I don't understand why this is a big deal that warrants total deletion of content. You could have simply added the attribution if you knew the source (a simple search could have shown that).
