:I wasn't implying that you didn't know what it meant, I was just stating why we are trying not to use it much. As for the changes you did, they'd be fine if it wasn't for the original being in verbatim. Now, the verbatim tag can't be used, because the text is no longer word for word. However, now you've brought this into plagiarism. How do you get yourself out? Write an article. You've done it before.--'''[[User:Immewnity|<span style="color:#88AADD">''immewnity''</span>]][[User talk:Immewnity|the]][[Special:Contributions/Immewnity|mew]]''' 14:06, 19 December 2010 (UTC) | :I wasn't implying that you didn't know what it meant, I was just stating why we are trying not to use it much.

::I'll attempt to rewrite it today, but I really don't get how this is plagiarism. Especially seeing how I actually sourced where this came from. If I intended to plagiarize, I would not have sourced it, claiming it was all my findings, not even source the material, since that's exactly how plagiarism works, which is stealing credit. Since I did credit the source, then logically, it shouldn't be considered plagiarism. However, like I said, I'll fix it today.

:::I've added an idea for the re-write. The only issue that I had before was that the source stated as the article writing should make the article verbatim. Just... make the article re-worded completely. We've gotten in trouble with semi-verbatim before.--'''[[User:Immewnity|<span style="color:#88AADD">''immewnity''</span>]][[User talk:Immewnity|the]][[Special:Contributions/Immewnity|mew]]''' 15:20, 19 December 2010 (UTC) |
