Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Siddi into Afro-Asians. 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. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 20:33, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Removed paragraph Henry Baring

I've removed a paragraph from article Henry Baring. The original two refs did not seem to support the assertions. But then you directly contradicted that text, without adding any further refs, making me think all this is either ambiguous or uncertain. (What drew my attention was the typo you left in.) Please review. Shenme (talk) 02:24, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

Edit summaries

I notice that you never leave an edit summary for editors who follow you. The reason for an edit contributes directly to other editors understanding of what you contributed to the article. Failure to leave an edit summary is a clear violation of WP etiquette. That you NEVER leave one is quite wilful. Are you sure you have the right intention in being here? This is a cooperative and communicative project.Sbalfour (talk) 04:00, 14 March 2021 (UTC) .

March 2021

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks! Rsk6400 (talk) 06:39, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Please take note of the above and use edit summaries when you edit. It is an annoying waste of time for other editors to have to scrutinise your changes. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 22:28, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

April 2021

Hello, I'm MichaelMaggs. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, A Modest Proposal, 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. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. You can't just change "England" to "Britain" without explaining what you are doing. Do you have explicit evidence that the cited sources, Baker (1957) and Landa (1942), have been misquoted here? MichaelMaggs (talk) 20:51, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Drapier's Letters, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Same applies here. MichaelMaggs (talk) 20:53, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
