Jayne Cravens moved to draftspace edit
An article you recently created, Jayne Cravens, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. ... discospinster talk 19:28, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
August 2021 edit
Hello, 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 David Meece, 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.

Concern regarding Draft:Jayne Cravens edit
Hello, Emjaikey. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Jayne Cravens, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.
If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

March 2023 edit
Your edit to Cocoa House has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. — Diannaa (talk) 13:20, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
- This is disappointing. I worked hard on those edits. I wasn't aware that I had breached copyright, and it was definitely not a deliberate action on my part. Wouldn't it be a better outcome to identify which group or words or sentence(s) were in error and ask me to fix those instead of deleting all that work?. Now the entry doesn't make sense, I feel I have wasted my time, we have lost an updated entry that could be useful for people and bizarrely the sentence that was already there which does breach copyright is still there. Why would anyone want to help Wikipedia again after this experience? Emjaikey (talk) 14:55, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
