I disagree with the deletion

Hello. I want to disagree with the speedy deletion. I copied the text in question from the article Mieszko II Lambert on Wikipedia. The said article was by itself translated (mostly without any changes) from the Polish Wikipedia article . If anything, the page https://www.geni.com/people/Mieszko-II-Lambert-king-of-Poland/6000000000768959047 that was marked as "original" copied its text from Wikipedia. It even gives links to Wikipedia articles and has classical source markers such as "[1]" within its text, clearly showing that text was copy-pasted from Wikipedia. Example: "...he married with Richeza (Ryksa),[2] daughter ...". I hope, that this misunderstanding will be fixed soon. Artemis Andromeda (talk) 16:42, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Artemis Andromeda: Copying within Wikipedia requires you to give attribution to the editors who created the original text within your edit summary - see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Not only is it a legal requirement, it also stops situations like this arising. --John B123 (talk) 16:57, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
