Copying...

[edit]

Among your recent contributions, many seem to be sentences and paragraphs that you copied verbatim from the article that you cited, without even quotation marks. (Most often from TechCrunch.) Direct copying like this is not allowed, except for small amounts deemed "fair use". Some of your additions have been flagged as copyright violations, and "rolled back" so severely that the content of your edit is hidden from the Revision History of the article. The article Wikipedia:Copyright violations begins to show what kind of writing is and is not acceptable "based on" or "derived from" a cited article. Other additions have been reverted (undone) because of the "promotional language" in the copied text. The article WP:NOTADVERTISING begins to describe why praiseful language (as is found in reviews and press releases) is not suitable in an encyclopedia article. -A876 (talk) 22:43, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
