[edit] Damn Small Linux

I see that you copied content from the DSL forum into the Damn Small Linux article. That is considered copright violation and is not tolerated on Wikipedia. Secondly, Wikipedia is not a collection of HOWTO's or manual's. Wikipedia articles are supposed to be about a topic, not provide in-depth information on how to do something. The material you added, even if you obtained the permission of the copyright owner, was not appropriate for Wikipedia. And lastly, it was written in a style not acceptable to Wikipedia. It included second-person pronouns ("you") and was very informal, which is discouraged on Wikipedia.

I hope this doesn't discourage you from further contributing to Wikipedia. Just understand that we have to have rules. Imroy 07:33, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
