Edits to Patrick Vaughan

edit

Dear Chtonian, you have made a number of edits to the Patrick Vaughan article. Please make sure you:

  1. Do not copy text straight from other sources (as it appears you have done); and,
  2. Directly cite as many of the facts and assertions in the article text as possible (see Wikipedia:Attribution and Wikipedia:Cite your sources).

Also, on the off chance that you are Patrick Vaughan or an associate/assistant/student of his, please note that it is considered poor form to edit articles which cover you personally or in which you are personally involved. Especially so if you edit them without proper referencing of your sources.

Thanks, and all the best editing Wikipedia.—Perceval 19:47, 23 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
