The problem with this logic is that there are many, many reasons why a user would come here to get information they could find elsewhere, from SEO to indexing to searchability. After all, this whole wiki started as a duplicate of Wikipedia's ''Doctor Who''-related pages, and that never stopped us! This is no reason to remove accurate and properly-formatted information from the wiki. I ask that [[T:DON'T COPY]] be edited to specifically reject this reasoning and that Timewalkerauthor's summaries be restored. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 20:14, 16 April 2023 (UTC) | The problem with this logic is that there are many, many reasons why a user would come here to get information they could find elsewhere, from SEO to indexing to searchability.

:To be clearer, the specific change I am suggesting is that [[Tardis:Plagiarism]] does not apply to an editor copying ''their own'' material from elsewhere, so long as it meets the wiki's standards. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 20:24, 17 April 2023 (UTC) | |||
