Mirrors

edit

  Thanks for contributing to the article Patrick van Rensburg. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you.

Thanks for your feedback, very much appreciated. Please give me the exact citation you are referring to, to enable me better understand your feedback. I made a couple of contributions, and I am not sure which one has the problem. Also, I still do not clearly understand what you mean by "Mirrors" and how they may be clearly marked. I will appreciate more information on this matter. Many thanks, --Tandywe (talk) 07:28, 26 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
The "peoplepill" site copies all of it's material from here. The articles there are exact duplicates. They note this with the "The contents of this page are sourced from Wikipedia article." on each article. Any site that copies from here should not be used as a source.
