Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Gilbert Stuart Newton may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 3 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for March 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Daniel Sargent, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page William Emerson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, Beth7g. :) I came upon the copyright concerns flagged at

today and believe I have figured out what happened here. In the future, if this happens again, can you please place an explanation on the talk page of the article. It would be appreciated, as it could save a lot of time!

What seems to have happened here is that you were working to create a translation of the German Wikipedia article, which that website also translated. This is not a copyright problem in terms of their translation, as yours differs. However, it is a copyright problem if we don't give due credit to the German Wikipedians who wrote the original article.

While a lot of people are confusing on this subject, content on Wikipedia is not public domain; it is simply very liberally licensed for use and modification. One of the conditions of the license is attribution. It's perfectly okay to copy content from one Wikipedia article to another or to translate it from one Wikipedia article to another, but attribution is required. Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia talks about how to do this - at its most basic, what's needed is a note in the edit summary and a template on the talk page.

I have provided the note in edit summary, here. Please note that I have linked the article; this is required. If you're not familiar with the process, it's a simple matter of putting the language code in front of the article title inside your brackets - so [[:de:Ralph Wormeley Curtis]]. This makes a quick link to the German version of the article.

The template on the talk page is a little more complicated, but not too bad. The only required parameters are the language name and the article title. You can see what it looks like filled out at

.

Sometimes bots will pick up translations like this even when all the formalities are met. This is not a problem; these things always get human review eventually. :) Just put a note on the talk page, and the person who reviews it will see what happened.

Thanks, and happy editing! --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 13:42, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Beth7g,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Alice Frost Blower Tilley for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. ubiquity (talk) 16:47, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 I disagree with your characterization that this article should be deleted.  I have appealed your request and responded on your talk page.
