Hello AMENF, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Draft:The Crossing (Documentary film) have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 ( talk) 16:27, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
Hi AMENF, as Diannaa mentioned above, you can't just copy in text from a previously published source, as that is a copyright violation. Even putting it all in quotes does not make it ok because you are using the quote to provide "new" information, and not using it to support something else you wrote; this is called Transformation. The best way to do it is to write the synopsis in your own words, like you were describing the plot to a friend over lunch. In the meantime I've had to remove that text again. Please let me know if you have questions, as copyright is admittedly a complicated area. Thanks, Crow Caw 16:45, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

Hello, AMENF. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " The Crossing".
