Censorship on Wikipedia edit

In regards to your change to You're Beautiful, there are two issues with it. First of all, direct quotes should not be changed. Second of all, Wikipedia is not censored. You may want to read Wikipedia:Offensive material, WP:CENSOR, and Censorship of Wikipedia for some background on this. I know that for some profanity seems unsuitable, especially, say, if children are involved, but Wikipedia strives to discuss all subjects openly.

Anyway, it's always good to see another editor here, hope to see you around more. Cheers,  DiscantX 12:28, 17 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, Derivant of the surname Finnerty edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Derivant of the surname Finnerty. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Finnerty. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Finnerty – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 23:16, 16 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
