reply to "vandal" which has evolved to plagerism
By the way, if you do not get a reply after you have answered me, it will be because I will have turned off my PC. I will answer your reply the next I come if I turn off my PC before you post. [[User:U.U|U.U]] ([[User talk:U.U|talk]]) 23:40, 4 January 2016 (EST)

:Alright, no problem--likewise for me. I do have a life outside of the cyber world, so I'm not always available to reply. I'll just assume that I will hear back eventually, and you can do likewise. As is evidenced by this reply, I only have certain times I can be online. Any time you can spend here is good, any time you can't is fine.
:As for copying from WP, I know what you mean. In theory, it can be a framework on which changes may be made. However, since it is someone else's framework, that should be avoided. Just write what you can, with expansion in mind. I'm not the best or brightest, and there are surely better ways, but I just try to include a little basic info, and categorize it so that others can add easily, as they see fit. As long as the original work is yours, this is a good plan. I sparked a bit of a discussion between [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] and [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] on this topic. There are different viewpoints, but mine is becoming the rather obvious, "Better to find an article than not, but better to find a full article that a stub." If I can make a full article, I try, but if I don't have enough knowledge, I at least create a stub to others can find something and improve upon that. Just remember--even stubs need to have citations.
