Further on this subject, Benjamin, you've tagged several articles of mine as being from Wikipedia. First off, in the case of [[Fighting Fantasy]], where does it use Wikipedia content? That article was written from scratch. Second, in the case of several others, the content was written by entirely by me. I don't mind it being tagged just to note that the material overlaps with WP but there is no need to credit WP with the content. ''I'' wrote it and can do what I like with it. —[[User:Joseph Rushton Wakeling|Joseph Rushton Wakeling]] 07:20, 29 March 2007 (CDT) | ::Further on this subject, Benjamin, you've tagged several articles of mine as being from Wikipedia.

PS. BTW, to make the credit appear by checking the chekbox, one has to do some dummy edit, e.g. to add a space or newline somewhere. A.S. | :::PS. BTW, to make the credit appear by checking the chekbox, one has to do some dummy edit, e.g. to add a space or newline somewhere. A.S. | ||

Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start, and see Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any user or the editors for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun!

Hi. Thanks for contributing to CZ! Please do me a huge favor and stop uploading Wikipedia articles for now. Read [[1]], especially the second point. That's the goal here. Best, Stephen Ewen 21:06, 28 March 2007 (CDT)
