Welcome!

Hello, Tintrungvu, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Copying from government sources

Hi. Your edits to the Vaping-associated pulmonary injury triggered the plagiarism detector because they were copied directly from your source. In this case, it wasn't actually a copyright violation, because you copied content from a US federal government site, which isn't subject to copyright, but when you do this, you still need to add an attribution templated, like the {{PD-notice}} template that QuackGuru added in this edit.

That said, it's almost always better to rewrite things in your own words. While this is not a copyright violation, it may still be seen as plagiarism. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:45, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
