  • Hello Delboy26/@comment-Midoki24-20130116212723.

    Thank you for taking the time to register for the DC Database project.

    With that said, we have noticed your recent edit on the Clytemnestra (Prime Earth) page and it appears that you might have copied some material from another source or website without permission.
    This project is very much against plagiarism. Researchers work very hard to collect and organize information for your viewing pleasure. It is not only immoral to copy their work, but most often illegal. We will not tolerate repeated instances of adding plagiarized texts to our database. Please understand this does not help our project, it only hurts us. We must rework the material or spend time cleaning it up; time that would be better spent creating new work.

    The entirety of her name change and history section are taken from comic vine without where even they had no sources. http://www.comicvine.com/horsewoman/29-79620/

    We've gone through this before, Delboy. This time it's for copying from the Green Arrow wiki with your Death Dealer edit. Tupka's cleaned up the mess but this is your first and last warning concerning plagiarism.

    • There wasn't a threat and a mountain of positive work does not diminish when you take information from another website and that information does not belong to you. Actions like these can lead to bad consequences on our end of they go unnoticed which is why we stress it.

      On a lighter note there are ways to cite from other websites should it prove useful. Information takes from www.dccomics.com would be a perfect example of this. But even then we source it and use the information under fair use.

      We appreciate your work, we just don't need you doing too much work if it means a mistake like this happening again. Keep it light and original if needed. As it were, keep up the good work.

  • Don't create quotes categories unless there are actually quotes existing there.

  • Hey, you've been doing a lot of great work around here lately and I just wanted to remind you of a little thing. Make sure you're citing references in all of your edits. I was looking at the big edit you just made to Kalista, which was solid, except that it didn't source the information. Just a quick footnote mentioning the issues in which those things happened is important. It's mentioned with proper formatting in the manual of style.

  • Instead of creating a new page for a second Cerberus, you needed to put the move tag on it instead. You just lost all the history for the original page.

  • If you update an image, don't forget to make a gallery with the old one.

  • Could you also update the links on issues to the Earth-One? It's more or less (but more more) compulsory when you split an article.

  • Just because Billy or myself will have to come up with an image, in which issue(s) did Supes use the name Gangbuster?

  • Before you change a lot, please read the talk page.

    • Depends. We could go for Stuff (Earth-Two), Stuff (Earth-One) (the one that died in the Silver Age), and either Danny (New Earth) or Stuff (New Earth). The problem is the name "Victor Leong" was meant for the first Stuff (theo nly one that existed at the time); his death at Bugsy's hands, and his brother, were introduced later (and in different titles).

    • Ah, It's getting confusing, sorry I am going to leave this for you to sort out. I didnt realise the continuity was so complex. But thanks for explaining.

  • You can't copy the powers from the Shazam family and translate them with a few random words changed onto a new page. You also need sourced. You also shouldn't put dashes (-) you should put colons (:). Look at any other page and do what they've done, if you need help sourcing or knowing how to apply powers and categories let me know.

    • Strength Scale doesn't need a asterisk.
    • Being human isn't a weakness.
