From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thank you for your contributions. Please see Wikipedia:How to edit a page for advice on wiki markup. [[User:Rdsmith4|User:Rdsmith4/sig]] 03:44, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Please consider the notability of the subject of articles you write before writing them. Wikipedia does not mean to include articles on every person ever to have lived - it is, after all, an encyclopedia, so people whose only notable accomplishment is to have been killed in the Osaka school massacre in Ikeda are probably not deserving of articles. Also, once again, please wikify your articles when you are finished writing them. [[User:Rdsmith4|User:Rdsmith4/sig]] 05:10, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Hello. Welcome to Wikipedia. I am afraid your articles on Osaka School Massacre victims will be deleted before long. Bundling them into one list, with some explanation of the incident, for example, might be a better way to present the information. Have you read Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not? Well, I noticed Rdsmith4 have just said what I wanted to.. but quite probably many others would think the same. Tomos 05:21, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

As interesting as your articles may be, unless you begin wikifying them (adding [[ ]] around relevant linked items and dates, for instance), you may end up blocked for being the source of more trouble than benefit. Incidentally, if you are copying these articles directly from another copyrighted source, you need to stop immediately. On the other hand, if you begin wikifying articles, please continue your excellent contributions. [[User:Rdsmith4|User:Rdsmith4/sig]] 05:24, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

It appears that you have copied all of your contributions from http://lifeinlegacy.com/. This constitutes mass copyright violation, which is strictly prohibited on Wikipedia; thus, if you continue, you will be blocked from further editing. Meanwhile, I am afraid I will have to delete your contributions. [[User:Rdsmith4|User:Rdsmith4/sig]] 05:33, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Since you have not stopped adding articles in violation of another website's copyright, I have had to block you. Please do not continue, or you risk a permanent block. [[User:Rdsmith4|User:Rdsmith4/sig]] 22:15, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Your entries

Hello and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you add a new entry, try to think about the notability of that person. For example, Jane Dorsey is not particularly notable in my opinion. lifeinlegacy is a great site in and of itself, there's no need to bring every entry from it into Wikipedia. Instead, it would be great to concentrate on making each entry as detailed and useful as possible. Thanks! Zachlipton 05:03, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
