Jordanian origin[edit]

What does "Jordanian origin" mean in the 500-years-ago context? Zero^talk 01:04, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The material added by @Bolter21: appears to have been copied and pasted from here which is "Copyright © 2009 Applied Research Institute-Jerusalem. All Rights Reserved" (see http://vprofile.arij.org/ramallah/ -> zoom in to north-west quadrant -> click red dot next to Abu Qash -> Village Profile). Aside from the copyright violation, an editor with ~2400 edits must surely know that they cannot add content to an WP:ARBPIA related article without citing sources.

Well the sources are already cited in external links. Should I cite them twice or revert it?--Bolter21 (talk to me) 09:25, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You just need to rewrite the content so that it isn't a copyright violation, create an inline citation from the external link source, cite it for all the content you add that comes from that source and remove the external link. Sean.hoyland - talk 15:23, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
