Where are you copying your entries from?--Aschlafly 23:41, 14 November 2007 (EST)

He's copying from Wikipedia-MexMax 23:53, 14 November 2007 (EST)

No, these were my own articles rejected by Wikipedia.

Billy Hathorn

Billy, I'm very sorry. I blanked one of your articles before searching deeper on WP and seeing that you were the sole contributor. Please accept my apologies. I'll take this as a lesson not to have an overzealous trigger finger :-) -MexMax 23:56, 14 November 2007 (EST)

That's all right: I did all of these from scratch. I have a couple of more I will send over tomorrow.

Good work both, keep going... --User:Joaquín Martínez, talk 00:02, 15 November 2007 (EST)

Yes, indeed. Also, editorial note, I have since reverted the blanking of your article :-). Sorry again!!!-MexMax 00:04, 15 November 2007 (EST)

Editors may always copy their own work, whether accepted or not by Wikipedia. (Of course, all new entries here must comply with our simple rules.) I look forward to reviewing your new entries here, Billy.--Aschlafly 00:07, 15 November 2007 (EST)

Wikipedia articles here

Here's the rule as to articles written in Wikipedia: they stay in Wikipedia and cannot be uploaded here unless the uploading individual is the author of the article(s) in question. This is probably why you were blocked, as the sysop probably did not know you were the author.

What you do is to 1. get permission from Aschlafly and establish the fact that you wrote them; 2. upload your content; 3. write a brief disclaimer in article's the talk page, something like "I created this article originally for Wikipedia on 10 July 2006". Karajou 11:45, 17 December 2007 (EST)

Apology

I apologize for the mixup yesterday regarding the blocking. DanH 00:48, 18 December 2007 (EST)

You may find this layout to be a bit easier, as it automatically adds a "contents" table. Karajou 10:47, 19 December 2007 (EST)

Copying from Wikipedia

When you copy your own article from Wikipedia...

  • Copy the source of the article, with formatting, etc. Bobby R. Himes has the text copied, with one consequence being that the footnotes are not numbered, so the reference numbers to the footnotes are useless.
  • Put a {{Copied from}} template on the article's talk page to show that you were the author of the Wikipedia article.

Hi. Please do not forget to add the {{Copied from}} template to the talkpage of your article, as you are pulling it in from Wikipedia,but it appears as if you are the original writer. Thank you. (If you need a hand with formatting it, please ask.) --KotomiTohayougozaimasu 10:23, 11 January 2009 (EST)

Photos

You do not currently have "upload" rights. You can request some from Aschlafly. In the meantime, find a public domain or CC-SA licensed image and go to Conservapedia:Image upload requests and list the URL of the image there. It helps if you add whether it is public domain or is licensed and if you are supposed to attribute its creator. Once the image is uploaded, add the following mark up to your page: [[File:myfile.jpg|thumb|right|my caption]]

When you get upload righhts, handling an image is easy. Go to the URL and download the image onto the hard drive of your laptop. Then go to the upload page and browse to the place where you saved the image and click "Upload". You must then record the information about the images source and some categories so that the image an be found. The name you give the uploaded image will then be used in the markup language we discussed above. JDano (talk) 08:13, 29 April 2016 (EDT)
