"I don't know anything."

But you know enough to help stop vandalism within a few minutes of getting here. Good show. =D Shanya Almafeta 21:58, 30 January 2007 (CST)

Erm...

Would you please stop copying Wikipedia content over? Shanya Almafeta 20:53, 31 January 2007 (CST) it would be better to ask WHY did you try to clone WP here? Robert Tito 21:05, 31 January 2007 (CST)

I copied templates that were needed for the article Joseph Smith, Jr.. Most of these are very good general purpose templates ... do we not use Harvard referencing here? There's no need for Citizendium to write its own templates when the ones from WP are perfectly good. And, if we're not supposed to copy content over, why is there a checkbox (hit by default, I might add) especially to designate your post as originating from Wikipedia?

No pun intended, it was quite amazing how much you were copying from WP to CZ. It made me laugh - that much was thrown over the line. but you are correct - it we can borrow from WP and extend further that is precisely what CZ intends to do, but in a better tested and content-ensured environment Robert Tito 21:29, 31 January 2007 (CST)
