Your addition to Midlife crisis has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without 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 text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions 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 violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Content was copied from this article. Drmies (talk) 05:04, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
Copying the structure of another article (close paraphrase) is still a violation of copyright. You additions to the midlife crisis article still retain the structure of Diller's article. If you want to add something, you need to add it in your own words.
In addition, the structure of your addition isn't in keeping with Wikipedia's style manual. Section headers are formatted with "==" (like they are, for example, on this page). Phrasing like "we have to address" is editorial, it isn't appropriate for an encyclopaedia article. Please take some time to read Wikipedia articles and see what the structure and tone of a good article should be like. Thanks. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:35, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
