Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Srlerner, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Elysia and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

[edit]I have undone some of your additions to Rosendale cement because of plagiarism. Directly copying a source, even if you provide a citation to the source, is not allowed on Wikipedia. Repeated plagiarism can result in a restriction of your editing privileges, so it is critical that you do not repeat this behavior. Please retake the Dashboard training on plagiarism.

Thank you so much for the feedback. I have retaken the training, and I now fully understand that simply citing the source is not allowed.
further feedback as requested
[edit]You stated that you removed the material I tagged as "citation needed" because it was previously on the page. However, your edits have introduced more uncited information on the article. I have tagged several of your added sentences as "citation needed." A section or a paragraph should never end without a citation. As a general rule, every sentence needs a citation. If consecutive sentences use the same source, then you can put one citation at the end of the last sentence to use that source. Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:11, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
