Your submission at Articles for creation: Glowing Sea Turtle (February 26)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted content, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.

This submission appears to be taken from carnivoraforum.com/topic/9821556/1, https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/scientists-discover-glowing-sea-turtle-180956789/. Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere, unless it explicitly and verifiably has been released to the world under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license or into the public domain and is written in an acceptable tone—this includes material that you own the copyright to. You should attribute the content of a draft to outside sources, using citations, but copying and pasting or closely paraphrasing sources is not acceptable. The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure. Note to reviewers: do not leave copyright violations sitting in the page history. Please follow the instructions here.

You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work.

Draft:Glowing Sea Turtle may be deleted at any time unless the copied text is removed. Copyrighted work cannot be allowed to remain on Wikipedia.
