Your article XDir was copied almost verbatim from http://www.xdir.us/ I would be grateful if you would stop doing this; it is not only plagiarism, but also violates Wikipedia's copyright policy. Please note that slight editing of a someone else's material does not remove their copyright; the edited article is still a derivative work of the original. Articles which are substantially copied from other web sites or printed material are deleted on sight as a matter of Wikipedia policy, so taking material from other people's material not only wastes your time in copying and reformatting material into articles which end up being deleted, it also wastes other editors' time during the process of tracking down and deleting copied articles.

Looking at your other edits, I can see that you are editing in good faith, and I hope you will soon find editing here interesting and rewarding. I'd be glad to help you with any editing problems you may run into. You can reply to me by editing here, or (more reliably) by editing my talk page. -- The Anome 11:57, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
