Copyright - do not copy\paste from sources
[edit]Hi Chuandmi, your desire to contribute to Wikipedia is appreciated but you cannot copy/paste from sources. You must write content in your own words that summarize what the sources state. Copyright violations are a serious issue as they have legal implications for both Wikipedia and the editor that violates the applicable laws. If you have questions or need help please ask at the Teahouse. S0091 (talk) 22:11, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- @S0091: Hi S0091, thanks for your comment. I'm new to Wikipedia so still trying to get the hang of things. I noticed you removed my edits on this page -- the Synopsis section was paraphrased and the Production section does not seem to be copy/pasted at all. So I was wondering if you could clarify those reverts for me? Thanks. Chuandmi (talk) 22:45, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- It's a very close paraphrase. For example, "the heartaches from their complicated family past becomes a shadow that constantly lingers" is verbatim. I will leave some additional information about editing Wikipedia and appreciate your response. S0091 (talk) 23:02, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.
Please remember to:
- Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp. - Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
