"The avalanche was down,
the hillside swept bare behind it;
the last echoes died on the white slopes;
the new mount glittered and lay still in the silent valley."
Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited

Nimbarka Sampradaya

Hello. In the spirit of WP:DTTR, I am not leaving you a notice in the customary form. I still need to say that in 2019, you made a number of additions to the prose of the above article. They appear to have been lifted directly from a third-party website, contrary to Misplaced Pages:Copyright violations. I am certain that you had not realised the policy's requirements, but please keep them in mind in future. Should you have any questions, let me know. Best regards, arcticocean ■ 16:20, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

@Arcticocean: as far as I can see, I merged Nimbarka and Dvaitadvaita to Nimbarka Sampradaya, and did not copy info from the Hare Krishna website, unless it was my edit from 12 january 2019 08:30. But that edit added 1,521 bytes, while you removed 3,693 bytes. But correct me if I'm wrong. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 16:54, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
Ah! That is borne out by a few of the edit summaries too, so I'm sure that was the case indeed. Sorry for suggesting that you had copyvioed. It's been very difficult to understand the history of this article, and the genesis of the content, because so many merge, demerge, and move actions have occurred over the years. Nimbarka was moved to Draft:Move/Nimbarkacharya, for instance, but that page now has no history due to a subsequent WP:ROUNDROBIN… Thanks for your response and sorry to disturb. arcticocean ■ 17:08, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
@Arcticocean: thank you! I was bothered indeed; it's not the kind of source I prefer; and if I use something like that, I use quotation-marks and clear attribution if I deem a londer chunk of text relevant for a Wiki-article. Regards, Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 17:10, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
