Hello, I'm Farine. I noticed that you recently removed some content from 2012–13 United States network television schedule without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, I restored the removed content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Farine (talk) 05:43, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. Please make sure to include an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! Farine (talk) 15:09, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Your article submission Parks and Recreation (season 5)

Hello Brianis19. It has now been over six months since you last edited your article submission, entitled Parks and Recreation (season 5).

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note, however, that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Misplaced Pages talk:Articles for creation/Parks and Recreation (season 5)}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Misplaced Pages, and happy editing. Beerest355 Talk 13:48, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Misplaced Pages, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in America's Got Talent, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Musdan77 (talk) 01:30, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

List of Snooki & Jwoww episodes

Hi. Thanks for adding material to the List of Snooki & Jwoww episodes article. However, in the course of your edit, you also removed a citation that was already in the article. The new citation you added does not include any mention of the April 25 date on which the third season was first announced, so there was no reason to remove that citation.

In addition, that earlier source was cited twice in the article. By removing the first citation of it, which included all the publication info, you created a citation error in the References section of the article, which you can see here. Sources that are cited more than once in the article use the ref name citation tag, so if you see a citation with a ref name tag, such as the one you removed, it means that it's being used multiple times in the article, and removing the first citation of it, which is usually the one that contains the full publication info, will result in such an error. Similarly, you can learn how to use the ref name tag here, so that you don't have to write out the url of the new source you're citing. It would also be appreciated if you include the rest of the publication info, at least in your first citation of that source, such as author, date, name of publication, etc.

Also, please understand that Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia, and should be written with care taken in adhering to basic principles of writing. Phrases like "for a 12 episodes" are not appropriate.

Lastly, a minor point, but spaces do not go in front of citations, as indicated by WP:PAIC.

If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 16:49, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello Brianis19, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Your addition to The Crazy Ones has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Misplaced Pages, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Misplaced Pages:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Misplaced Pages:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Misplaced Pages:Copyrights. You may also want to review Misplaced Pages:Copy-paste.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Misplaced Pages:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Misplaced Pages articles may not be copied without attribution. If you want to copy from another Misplaced Pages project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Misplaced Pages:Copying within Misplaced Pages.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
