Contested deletion

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... Thank you for pointing this out. I'm happy to edit the content so as not to show unambiguous copyright infringement. I'm still learning how to do this and simply thought that citing the source alone was acceptable. I clearly see now that it isn't. How should I proceed. Shall I edit the page now? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cheekychives (talk • contribs) 13:04, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Cheekychives, I've removed the problematic content (see below). Yes, it's important to cite your sources, but it's even more important not to copy from them – almost invariably, everything you write in Wikipedia must be entirely in your own words.
