It appears that you copied or moved text from [[:Australia]] into [[:European exploration of Australia]]. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, [[WP:Copyrights|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 [[Help:Edit summary|edit summary]] at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and [[Help:Link#Wikilinks|linking]] to the copied page, e.g., <code>copied content from <nowiki>[[page name]]</nowiki>; see that page's history for attribution</code>. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{tl|copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but 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. <!-- Template:uw-copying --> If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — [[User:Diannaa|Diannaa]]&nbsp;<span style="color:red">🍁</span>&nbsp;([[User talk:Diannaa|talk]]) 15:48, 27 November 2018 (UTC) : Thank you for the note, [[User:Diannaa|Diannaa]]&nbsp;<span style="color:red">🍁</span>&nbsp;([[User talk:Diannaa|talk]])! I did not know that. I'll head over there now and leave attribution code, if someone else hasn't already. [[User:Ewen Douglas|Ewen Douglas]] ([[User talk:Ewen Douglas#top|talk]]) 16:56, 27 November 2018 (UTC) :: Ah, I see you already took care of it for that page, thank you for that. No, this was the first time I'd copied content from one article to another. Thanks again for making me aware of the policy. [[User:Ewen Douglas|Ewen Douglas]] ([[User talk:Ewen Douglas#top|talk]]) 17:03, 27 November 2018 (UTC) ==[[Prisoner (TV series)]]== I've set this article to accept only revisions from auto-confirmed editors. Clearly there's an ongoing edit war against an editor who is ip hopping. I trust this helps. -- [[User:Longhair|Longhair]]\^{[[User_talk:Longhair|talk]]} 08:35, 2 December 2018 (UTC) : Thanks, that seems like a good solution. [[User:Ewen Douglas|Ewen Douglas]] ([[User talk:Ewen Douglas#top|talk]]) 21:32, 3 December 2018 (UTC) ==[[Committee to Defend the President]]== Ewen, a lot of the edits that you made are either inaccurate, misleading, or unrelated to the page at hand. Case in point: Ted Harvey has been published in the Daily Caller, but also a bunch of other news outlets worth mentioning, so to pretend otherwise makes no sense. I also added a bunch of other news sources relevant to the page, so deleting them now is counterproductive. What specifically can I do differently in the next round of edits to have them be accepted? Please and thank you! [[User:Doctorstrange617|Doctorstrange617]] ([[User talk:Doctorstrange617|talk]]) 21:54, 7 December 2018 (UTC) : Hello, [[User:Doctorstrange617|Doctorstrange617]] ([[User talk:Doctorstrange617|talk]]). I would say to take it one edit at a time. The easiest one to do first is to add a reference (or two or three) to other opinion pieces that Ted Harvey has had published, and then change that sentence to reflect that he's been published in various different places. After that, if you feel more things should be added, I would go about it by doing one thing at a time - a specific change to the text, along with a reference, then move on to the next change you want to make. Should make things flow more easily from here on out. :Thanks for discussing! I would also suggest that the next note you make goes on the article's talk page, rather than here. It's the more appropriate place for it.

Your recent edit to the page [[:Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]] appears to have added incorrect information, so it has been removed for now. If you believe the information was correct, please [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|cite a reliable source]] or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use the [[WP:SANDBOX|sandbox]]. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:Tsumikiria|my talk page]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-error1 --> [[User:Tsumikiria|Tsumikiria]] ([[User talk:Tsumikiria|T]]/[[Special:Contributions/Tsumikiria|C]]) 00:29, 18 December 2018 (UTC) : [[User:Tsumikiria|Tsumikiria]], thank you for calling attention to the next sentence, which I missed. It turns out that source ALSO does not state that [[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]] supports abolishing ICE. So, in other words, two sentences in a row have misconstrued Ocasio-Cortez's statements on ICE, in the very sources which they purport to get the info from! I'll fix both sentences. [[User:Ewen Douglas|Ewen Douglas]] ([[User talk:Ewen Douglas#top|talk]]) 00:34, 18 December 2018 (UTC) ::That isn't true and the three sources around the two sentences doesn't seem to explicitly mention she saying that she does '''''not''''' support abolishing ICE. In fact her support for abolishing ICE is right on her website: [https://www.ocasio2018.com/issues]. You shouldn't made {{diff2|874241485|this}} revert either. Present your case to the talk page, and do not make wild edits without consensus. [[User:Tsumikiria|Tsumikiria]] ([[User talk:Tsumikiria|T]]/[[Special:Contributions/Tsumikiria|C]]) 00:43, 18 December 2018 (UTC) :::[[User:Tsumikiria|Tsumikiria]], please check [https://documentedny.com/2018/06/27/early-arrival-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-wins-in-upset-over-joe-crowley/ this article], which is used as the source for that sentence (I didn't add that source, it was already there). Here's the direct quote from the article: "Ocasio-Cortez spoke to Documented about her support of the movement to dissolve Immigration and Customs Enforcement, known as #AbolishICE shortly before she won. She said that she would stop short of fully disbanding the agency, and would rather create a pathway to citizenship for more immigrants through decriminalization. “It’s not an open-borders position. I think it’s part of a larger conversation that we need to sit down with immigration activists,” Ocasio-Cortez said." :::I don't know how it could be more explicit than that.
