Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Draft:Commission on Population and Development. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain 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#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:27, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa. Am glad that you/someone looked at the draft. Please let me know if there was a major flaw in it, as it is my first time to contribute. I will gladly revise.

If it won't be too much of a bother, kindly point out the public domain/s which was/were cited, and I will amend the attribution/s.

Grateful for your help. Mikepolics (talk) 07:57, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
