Wikipedia
Moviepedia is not intended to simply be a copy of Wikipedia. Information can be obtained from Wikipedia, but needs to be customized for here. If you're going to copy from Wikipedia, do three things:
 * 1) Don't highlight the text of the page and copy it. This causes what are called "hard-coded links" back to Wikipedia to be grabbed that are harder to clean up. It also can grab unnecessary formatting on how the words should look, such as forcing paragraphs to be displayed at a specific size. Instead, edit the page, highlight the code inside the editor, and then paste that into the page you're making here.
 * 2) Put in the Edit summary line that you copied the info from Wikipedia.
 * 3) Put the    template at the top of the page or section you copied so it's clear where you got it.
