Copying from Wikipedia

I see that 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! --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. --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). --1990'sguy (talk) 16:29, 8 January 2017 (EST)
