Mini-grid article[edit]

Hi Christopher. Just in case you didn't get automagically notified, FYI I've started a discussion at Talk:Mini-grid regarding the content that you removed from this article, possibly by accident. Please don't be discouraged! You clearly have a lot to offer Wikipedia, and it's normal for new editors to encounter some bumps. Take care, Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 05:25, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you have added Creative Commons licensed text to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Mini-grid. You are welcome to import appropriate Creative Commons licensed 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#Compatibly licensed sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any Creative Commons content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 14:01, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Diannaa -- thank you very much for your message. Can you help me identify what text was flagged as Creative Commons licensed text? I've only been working on one article, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mini-grid, and I am not aware that I uploaded any CC licensed text.

It was the list of 10 items yhou copied from the World Bank document in this edit. You can find the license information in the front matter of the source document. — Diannaa (talk) 14:55, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for you quick reply. Am I correct that you have fixed it, with the attribution corrected? I don't know if this matters, but I was a co-author of that World Bank book. Christopher Greacen (talk) 05:23, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have fixed it. The license terms require us to attach the license even if you are one of the authors. — Diannaa (talk) 13:35, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
