Hey, Obey Golden.

I know M67PattonZippo has already addressed your edits, but I would just like to clarify a few things:

Any information you find lying around shouldn't be copied and pasted into new articles as that is considered plagiarism. I was notified about the information you directly copied from a Destinypedia page on the Destiny 2 character, the Drifter. While I am up for collaboration with Destinypedia, this wiki has a strict policy against 3rd party, or questionable, sources. You should treat it as if you were writing a paper: it should be your own work/in your own words. The information you contribute can still be somewhat similar to other sources, but it cannot simply be copied and pasted. Direct quotes that are typically up to a few lines long or information from 1st or 2nd party sources are acceptable, but should be cited. I'd also recommend taking a look at our citation policies. Common knowledge does not need to be cited.

I noticed that you created several new pages for various weapons, such as The Jade Rabbit and Vestian Dynasty, which I deleted as there are already existing pages for the weapons in Destiny and Destiny 2. Pages like this should only be created to serve as disambiguation pages for when there are more than 2 articles with the same name, such as the ones listed under MIDA Multi-Tool. (Feel free to use the format from this one for future disambiguation pages.) There are currently only 2 articles with the name The Jade Rabbit, so a disambiguation page is not necessary here. Any information you feel can be added should be added to the existing applicable articles. E.g. Adding "The Jade Rabbit was a PS4 exclusive until Fall 2016)" to the page The Jade Rabbit (Destiny).
