Seems that the situation is over but reopen if needed.

Les (talkcontribs)

After your very obviously plagiarized '91 Kong comic and Ian Ziering sandboxes, I have to ask you to please stop. It doesn't matter whether or not you put "thanks to Wikipedia for the information," it is still plagiarism and is not acceptable. If you continue to create pages with passages copy-pasted from other sites, action will have to be taken. This is your only warning.

Rope (talkcontribs)

Do you have any proof it was plagerized.

NO but I was going to put it into my own words. I just saved it because my laptop was about to die, and when I came back it got blocked. I swear I was going to put into my own words.

Rope (talkcontribs)

Yes but Les didn't say he had proof he just said it was very obvious

MinecrafterJoe (talkcontribs)

What do you mean?

Astounding Beyond Belief (talkcontribs)

It doesn't really matter what you intended to do at some undefined point in the future. Once you edit a page, that's what the whole Internet sees when they visit it.

Rope, for pity's sake, all we have to do if we think something is plagiarized is put a couple sentences for it into Google. If it is, the source will be the first result.

MinecrafterJoe (talkcontribs)

I'm sorry that I plagiarized but I was putting it into my own words. In fact, I put about a third of it into my own words before you blocked it.

MinecrafterJoe (talkcontribs)

I guess I understand that the whole world sees it, and I'm sorry. But how do you create a sandbox so I can put it into my own words?

Astounding Beyond Belief (talkcontribs)

You just create a page that starts with User:MinecrafterJoe/Sandbox/, with the page name following the final slash. I recommend editing your profile to include links to your sandboxes for easy access, as I've done.

Rope (talkcontribs)

But did you do that is the question

MinecrafterJoe (talkcontribs)

Ok thank you. I would have done that if I knew how to.

Rope (talkcontribs)

I am sorry I was just trying to defend somebody that I thought was being wronged. I now realized he was wrong and you where right. Please accept my apology.

Apology accepted, but the very title of this topic should have cued you in.
