Hello,
Thank you for your recent edits to Renee Heath and your overall contributions to Wikipedia. I thought I'd give you some info on how to add better quality citations for your future editing, using WP:Bare URLs (e.g. http://abc.net.au/news-article-being-refernced/) isn't ideal as it provides much less information to the reader compared to a full citation. Here is an article with more information on how to add citations and here is a video on how to easily add citations to when editing.
Again, thank you for all of your contributions. Reply to this post or message me on my talk page should you have any questions, Merry Christmas - GA Melbourne (talk) 09:20, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Ponyshine! Your additions to Scott Morrison have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:00, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ponyshine, thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia.
I'm a little concerned about some of them, particularly on political articles. For example, these edits to the Nicolle Flint article https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nicolle_Flint&diff=1192524178&oldid=1152725986 introduce a section to speculate on Flint's future candidacy and synthesises two additional sources that don't mention her to include an observation about the trajectory of a political party. Another example is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=George_Brandis&diff=prev&oldid=1200354780 where you've included something very trivial where Brandis was caught calling members of the same political party mediocre. And the Peter Dutton edit making it abundantly clear it was a commercial decision. And the IPA edit changing Australian Government to Howard Government. I get it, I don't like the Liberals either, but you gotta keep it in check when building an encyclopedia. Cjhard (talk) 10:41, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
