@JJMC89: Hello, I spent some time adding the section that was removed. Can you please restore it to this talk page or my sandbox- somewhere I can go through it. In that way I can see what the problem was. Thanks! Lightburst (talk) 00:46, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No. Copyright violations are not permitted anywhere on Wikipedia. It was copied almost word for word from the The tower of the lantern [...] February 17 , 1879 paragraph at link above. — JJMC89(T·C) 00:53, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@JJMC89: I see what happened. That paragraph was actually put on Youtube from the French Wikipedia. Not the other way around. I used the opening sentence from the french wikipedia and insured that it was not a CCI issue. So perhaps you can restore it after you check that out?

@JJMC89: Ok, check it. I rewrote intoduction. Let me know what you think please. I do not think Youtube cares if the plagiarize WP Lightburst (talk) 01:22, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, so the issue is that you not provide attribution for the source of your translation as required by the French Wikipedia's CC BY-SA 3.0 license. I have unhidden the history, provided the required attribution, and added a notice about it above. — JJMC89(T·C) 02:26, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
