Hi Somned, in this edit you added some text to the tourism section that included a deadlink and a source without an access date, which makes it seem like the text might be copied from somewhere else. Did you write that yourself or was it from another Wikipedia page? Best, CMD (talk) 12:47, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi CMD, yeah I had took it from an earlier revision in the same article and I didn't know that the source was already a dead one. My bad. Somned (talk) 14:27, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. The source isn't really the issue, it's a copyright/attribution issue. If you copy text within Wikipedia, please explicitly note it in the edit summary. See Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia for more information. Taking from a previous version isn't explicitly covered there, but best practices would be to note it.
