Merit system

more specificity, since I felt I haven't really adequately explained things as such previously:

you didn't attribute content you copied directly from another article (Merit system) as you are required to do
that's not the end of the world, but in so doing you also didn't include the source Merit system is citing saying the Qin invented the first merit system in human history, as none of the other sources (nor any others I spent the past 25 minutes searching through) ever say this. It's a huge claim.
the source that is cited on Merit system is not a scholarly work of history, and thus is completely inappropriate to verify such a broad and bold claim
"The Princeton Encyclopedia of Chicken Nugget Political History Volume 2" also seems like an inappropriate source, but what do i know.

in sum, an inadequately sourced addition that seemed pretty irresponsible, and that needed to be promptly removed.

also, please stop marking edits as minor that aren't. Remsense ‥ 论 10:32, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
