== Copying from Wikipedia ==
  −
 
  −
I see that [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Terrorism&curid=8020&diff=1298285&oldid=1292453#Islamic_terrorism this edit you made] was directly copied from the Wikipedia article "Islamic terrorism." We appreciate your edits, but we do not allow copying from Wikipedia (unless it was completely your own work) because Wikipedia content is not in the public domain. Also, Wikipedia oftentimes has a left-wing POV, so it is better to simply write the content yourself. I recommend that you go back and fix the content you copied from Wikipedia so that it is your own work. Please see [[Conservapedia:Guidelines#Copying From Other Sources]] and Commandment 1 from [[Conservapedia:Commandments]] for more information.

Also, I recommend that you add some good sources (preferably without any left-wing bias) for articles such as [[PEGIDA]] (Conservapedia Commandment 2). It gives us more credibility and it helps create high-quality articles.

Regardless, thank you for you improvements so far. Your edits are appreciated and we hope you continue editing! --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 15:12, 8 January 2017 (EST)

: Hello 1990's guy, I always changed at least something small in the texts I found on Wikipedia, but I will check if I can change some more words in those articles. --[[User:Gentenaar|Gentenaar]] ([[User talk:Gentenaar|talk]]) 15:24, 8 January 2017 (EST)

::It's always good never to copy Wikipedia text even if small changes are made. It could still be counted as plagiarism (and unfortunately, because of Wikipedia copyright rules, we would be forced to delete the information). --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 16:29, 8 January 2017 (EST)

Hello Gentenaar, thank you for your edits and article creations.
  −
 
  −
I noticed that your articles [[Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi]], [[Belgian Jupiler League]], and [[K.A.A. Gent]] do not cite any sources. I encourage you to add good sources to those articles and any other big changes you made. Adding sources is Commandment #2 in [[Conservapedia:Commandments]], and it really does help in creating good, high quality articles. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 10:04, 9 January 2017 (EST)

== Tips ==
  −
 
  −
Thank you for all your contributions Gentenaar. I see you have been learning quickly. When creating articles, I recommend also creating redirects (whenever necessary) so that people can find the article better when doing a simple article search, as I did for some of the rivers. A redirect could also be done so someone can search the last name of a person. Also, because a normal search is case-sensitive, sometimes it is good to make a redirect.

  −
Also, I see that in many of your articles you still do not cite any sources. I encourage you to add at least one good source for an article, even if it is a very short article, as it improves the quality of the article and our reputation. Regardless, thank you for your edits. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 11:09, 19 January 2017 (EST)

== Category usage ==
  −
 
  −
I see you are making great progress in creating and structuring categories to go with pages!  Keep it up!  Just one note, in general it's best to to avoid including but parent and child categories.  In the category "tree" please try to only include an article on one "level".  If it applies to two entirely different branches, then it's okay to include it regardless, but in cases such as [[Tagus]], try to include it in only the category "European Rivers" or only in the categories of the specific countries it runs through, such as "Portuguese Rivers".  Thanks for your work!  --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 13:13, 20 January 2017 (EST)

== Page moves ==
  −
 
  −
Hi, I notice you are requesting a number of page moves (1990'sguy is doing a good job of informing me about them).  If you want a page moved, it may be more effective if you use the move template, like <nowiki>{{move|New page name}}</nowiki> so that the page is marked and categorized for moving.  Also, feel free to ask me directly for a page move, since it may take time before I or someone else notices your request. Thanks for everything! --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 17:55, 4 February 2017 (EST)

Hi, Gentenaar.  I've noticed you make impressive amounts of contributions on the recent changes page.  Do you have any advice for making lots of edits or creations of lots of articles? - Nathan --[[User:Abcqwe|Abcqwe]] ([[User talk:Abcqwe|talk]]) 17:37, 2 March 2017 (EST)

:Hello Nathan, for me it's all about my special interest in geography and when I saw how little articles there where about Europe on CP I felt like having a mission here. I'm European and I was in many European countries (Budapest, Prague, Berlin, Rome, Athens, and last week London for the third time and so much more) so I wanted to spread my knowledge and help CP to grow. If there is some subject you really interested in and the number of articles are low you can start creating a mass of new articles or you can help me with my geography boom. Greetings from Belgium, Steve. --[[User:Gentenaar|Gentenaar]] ([[User talk:Gentenaar|talk]]) 10:34, 3 March 2017 (EST)

::Okay, then.  I guess we'll see lots of articles about literature and geometry.  Thank you!--[[User:Abcqwe|Abcqwe]] ([[User talk:Abcqwe|talk]]) 11:23, 3 March 2017 (EST)
