Copyright status of CC-109 Cosmopolitain edit

  Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to CC-109 Cosmopolitain. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.airforce.forces.gc.ca/equip/historical/cosmopollst_e.asp in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

  • If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
  • If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:CC-109 Cosmopolitain with a link to where we can find that note;
  • If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:CC-109 Cosmopolitain with a link to the details.

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:CC-109 Cosmopolitain saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Butseriouslyfolks 18:00, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

War of 1812 Talk Page edit

Hi and welcome to Wikipedia! Please discuss your changes on the War of 1812 talk page Talk:List of wars involving the United States. On any article, you can also get to the talk page by clicking the talk tab at the top of the page. In general, we use a process called WP:BRD. The idea being that an editor acts boldly, then if another editor disagrees, they revert the edit (as I did), then a discussion takes place on the talk page. In this instance, we did the B and R, but then the D part got skipped when you reverted me (and my request to discuss it on the talk page). So, I'm going to revert the edit again, and we can continue the discussion about the article specifically on the talk page there. Happy editing! Orville1974 (talk) 23:00, 20 June 2019 (UTC).Reply

Matthewq4b, please see a talk discussion at Talk:List of wars involving the United States#War of 1812. If you continue to revert the article without waiting for consensus on the talk page, you are risking a block under our WP:Edit warring rules. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 01:50, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
