Welcome!

Hello, Samahkhan, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page Frontotemporal dementia have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have!

Sources

[edit]

Hi Samahkhan! It is important to add sources to the things you write. For instance, if you write "It has been researched that" you need to state which research: name of author, article, journal, which year etc. Could you please add these sources? On Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners you can read how to do this. With friendly regards, Lova Falk talk 08:33, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Copypaste

[edit]

Hi Samahkhan! I just now saw a text you had added to Delusional disorder (another editor later removed the text again). Now this text was literally copied and pasted from another source, for instance this one. This is called copy-pasting; doing so is a copyright violation and may constitute plagiarism. Please read Wikipedia:Copy-paste to learn more about this. With friendly regards, and keep up the good editing! Lova Falk talk 10:50, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
