  Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Lieutenant William Thompson. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:12, 3 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

Deletion discussion about William Thompson (Revolutionary War)

edit

Hello, Monicabistrainokie

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Scope creep and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, William Thompson (Revolutionary War), should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/William Thompson (Revolutionary War).

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Scope creep}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!
