what do you mean "it did not appear constructive" ??

It looks like I might have made a typo in entering the new URL. I'll check into it. Skidney1969 (talk) 00:04, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution[edit]

Hi Skidney1969! Thank you for your edits to Skunk Works. It looks like you've copied or moved text from Kelly Johnson (engineer) into that page, and while you are welcome to re-use the content, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. If you've copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thanks! DanCherek (talk) 15:21, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dan: It looks like you took care of the attribution to "Kelly Johnson (engineer)" for me. Thank you for that. I'm fairly new at editing Wikipedia, but want to do it right. Skidney1969 (talk) 07:30, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
