         Thank you Dodger67 Roger. I will find additional sources and expand the article, but wanted a look from an experienced editor at the beginning. Thatcher57 (talk) 18:21, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

When adding links to material on external sites, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube or Sci-Hub, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Alexbrn (talk) 07:30, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is there an edit I made that you think violates this, @Alexbrn? Thatcher57 (talk) 23:14, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes[1]. I redacted the link. Alexbrn (talk) 05:47, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for making me aware of it and fixing it. I will be careful to avoid that mistake in the future @Alexbrn. Thatcher57 (talk) 05:55, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's odd because one would expect semanticscholar.org to be pukka, but on this occasion one of their sources seems to have got this illicit copy. Alexbrn (talk) 05:57, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
