The information is from the paper copy of the Internal Revenue Bulletin. It has a cite and useful upcoming information about the creation of future Cumulative Bulletins. Who has time to find a paper copy when a person could just go to Wikipedia? Geraldshields11 (talk) 15:57, 7 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

I've stubbed the article. Even though the text you copied was not copyrighted, I don't see the point in having a Wikipedia article that is entirely copied and pasted from another source. You might consider expanding the article using your own words, or posting the source text on Wikisource. —KuyaBriBriTalk 19:49, 7 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

I do not understand why an article focusing on a publication, published since 1919, listing authoritative tax documents is stubbed to a size smaller than the article about Pikachu, even if the tax article needs work. But, I have a unique sense of humor. (Smiley face) Geraldshields11 (talk) 20:33, 7 June 2012 (UTC)   Geraldshields11 (talk) 19:12, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Your initial contribution to the article was a verbatim copy and paste from an external source. Even though I determined it was not a copyright violation, usually text lifted from other sites is not appropriate for an encyclopedia. You are more than welcome to add your own words to this article as long as the claims made are verifiable in reliable sources. —KuyaBriBriTalk 21:03, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Dear Kuyabribri, I agree with your assessment and will work on it when I have time and an interest. My joke about stubbing to a size smaller than the Pikachu article was intended to be funny and not snarky. But, I have a unique sense of humor.   Geraldshields11 (talk) 17:16, 16 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
