Welcome to Wikipedia!
editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Ben Stern, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:
- Copying text from other sources
- Policy on copyright
- Frequently asked questions on Wikipedia's copyright policy
- Policy and guideline on non-free content
If you still have questions, there is the teahouse, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

- Please stop adding text from copyright sources into that article, and the {{copyvio-revdel}} template should not be removed until an administrator has reviewed it. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 04:51, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Please help me with... I included material from a website on a wikipedia page. I received a message about this so I deleted the content and included new content but I think that I did not follow instructions? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Stern Louiqa (talk) 05:00, 7 August 2021 (UTC) Louiqa (talk) 05:00, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
- It looks like your second try was also found to be a copyright violation. Don't copy anything to Wikipedia. You can write a summary in your own words. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 05:12, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
