Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket into Ion thruster. 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. 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. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 19:13, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Diannaa, thanks for your comment, I did not know these Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia rules. Actually I did not copy from Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket but from Plasma propulsion engine. In my opinion there is an overlap between this article and Ion thruster (these concerns were expressed already on both talk pages, and there was even an unsuccessful proposal a few years ago to merge those two articles). My proposal is more to rename these articles to better distinguish the family of electrostatic ion thrusters on the one hand and the family of electromagnetic plasma thrusters on the other hand. So, without knowing it, I actually followed the rule of leaving notes at the talk pages of both source and destination. Ileresolu (talk) 07:55, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What you need to do is to provide a link back to the source page in the edit summary at the destination page at the time you add the content, and state that content was copied from that page. Here is a sample edit summary: "Attribution: content in this section was copied here from Pakistan Army on August 21, 2016. Please see the history of that page for attribution." The edit summary is mandatory; posting on the talk page is optional. Thanks, — Diannaa (talk) 13:06, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Issuing level 1 warning about removing AfD template from articles before the discussion is complete. (Peachy 2.0 (alpha 8))

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Category:Thompson Medal recipients. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. This is an automated message from a bot about this edit, where you removed the deletion template from an article before the deletion discussion was complete. If this message is in error, please report it.—^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 07:39, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies, I used the "AfD" template but this is a category and not an article. Discussion should be closed here and take place at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Speedy#Current_requests.Ileresolu (talk) 08:45, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Page-moves for chemical-element groups

Your requests for Alkali metal and Alkali earth metal are actually quite controversial. The singular were discussed extensively and there was no consensus to change to plural. See Talk:Alkali metals#rename without discussion?. DMacks (talk) 00:17, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
