Phrasebook clarification

What is meant by "your own work?" Does this mean I coined the phrase, or that I did the research? Can it be something I've heard, and subsequently translated as long as it's not copyrighted? Finally, is there a way to know what has happened when my contributions disappear?

Hi,
What is meant by "your own work?" Does this mean I coined the phrase, or that I did the research?
This thread should hopefully answer this question 
.
Can it be something I've heard, and subsequently translated as long as it's not copyrighted?
Yes, as long as it's an accurate translation .
Finally, is there a way to know what has happened when my contributions disappear?
They might have moved to the "needs approval" tab, or if they are repeats they might have been deleted .

Thank you, this answer was very helpful. I'll try to refine my searces when I go to see if a pharse has been used. - LaloLoco, Jul 12, 2011
