Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution[edit]

I have this talk comment in my personal talk page:Cblambert (talk) 22:01, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Louis Riel into Draft:Louis Riel (historiography). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 17:45, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copying from Who Killed Canadian History? to Historiography of Louis Riel[edit]

Text and/or other creative content from [[Who Killed Canadian History?]] was copied or moved into [[Historiography of Louis Riel]] on 2/10/2022. The former page's [ history] now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Copied content:

In her study of Louis Riel historiography, historian Jennifer Reid agrees with the book's sentiment that Canadians regret their lack of cultural heroes, but questions why Granatstein opposes the celebration of Riel.[64] Granatstein describes Riel as a "crazed religious fanatic" and argues that not all Canadians could agree on whether his actions were heroic.[65] According to historian George Goulet, by Granatstein's standard no historical figure could ever be fit to be a Canadian hero.[66]Cblambert (talk) 22:49, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Scope of Riel literature[edit]

R. C. Macleod's 1986 book review of four books, including Tom Flanagan's "Riel and the Rebellion: 1885 Reconsidered"^, cites a then recent bibliography of non-fiction literature about Louis Riel as numbering some 400 books and journal articles.

A 1987 literature review by Jennifer S. Brown titled "People of Myth, People of History: A Look at Recent Writings on the Metis"^^ says that The Collected Writings of Louis Riel includes "2569 pages of text, apparatus, and commentary" that makes "Riel one of the most massively published political figures in Canadian history."
