[edit] Fantastico Deluxe

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Fantastico Deluxe article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! --MMX 01:17, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Shabda, the text that you included was copyrighted, per the original text [1]. Copying and pasting text from another site is unacceptable unless the license is explicitly stated and permits you to do this (in this case, it was copyrighted and in fact the license was explicitly reserved by the author). Also, messages should be posted on a User's "discussion" page and *not* on the actual user page. --MMX 15:08, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

No problem on the user page, just wanted to clarify how to leave messages. Also, it's helpful if you sign messages by including --~~~~ at the end of your comments, which automatically gets transformed into this: --MMX 22:25, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
