Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Dean Carter. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 06:06, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Your addition to Ernest O. Thompson has been removed or altered, as it appears to closely paraphrase a copyrighted source. Limited close paraphrasing or quotation is appropriate within reason, so long as the material is clearly attributed in the text. However, longer paraphrases, especially if they are not attributed to their source, may constitute copyright violation or plagiarism, and are not acceptable on Wikipedia. Such content cannot be hosted here for legal reasons; please do not post it on any page, even if you plan to fix it later. You may use external websites or printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If you own the copyright to the text, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the copyright but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Thank you. Broc (talk) 08:54, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

A weird sun for you!

For your tireless efforts to fix small errors across Wikipedia. Jruderman (talk) 06:12, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

Just noticed that many of the gifts in your collection have captions. I couldn't pick just one, so feel free to choose one of these or add your own:

• The wiki gnome's weird sun
• A gift from a fan of NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory
• The Sun as seen in 91 angstroms green, for some reason

A barnstar for you!

The Minor barnstar

Glad to see more people who specialize in Nintendo! I know because I've seen you gradually show up more and more on my watchlist since I have so many random articles on there. I was there for the start of Paper Mario' creation ~4 years ago, because I created it, and it's nuts (and hilarious) to see glaring problems like this go unnoticed by the dozens of hands that have reviewed it and touched it since. Your cleanup and technical fixes are very much appreciated! Panini! • 🥪 05:05, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

I'm noticing now that prior to The Top 100 you promoted Mario Party DS to FA. Good Job! Multi-release franchises like Mario party are often overlooked and don't get the proper quality work needed.

But, is the double Mario Party coincidence? Or do you plan on working on the entire series? If the latter is the case, let me know, I'd be happy to help take one down. I'd probably do Super Mario Party because I've played that one a bit with my family. My sister being better than me at that one steak game still pisses me off. But anyways, I've done one of the games already. Panini! • 🥪 05:14, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

VG reviews table

Please don't add that template to small articles. From the instructions on the template itself: "If you only have a couple of such reviews which could be used to fill the table, consider foregoing the table". The template is useful for popular games that have lots of reviews. It's not so useful for tiny articles on indie games that only have a few reviews. At that point, it takes up a large amount of space without imparting much information. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:03, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
