I believe I've read his claim to have actually written large portions of it. Dishalein 01:56, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Source

(Ha, I see that at least some of this article is simply paraphrase of the Spanish bio at www.cidob.org)

I totally disagree. the cidob article, which is a link, is the main source for info at the moment but that is completely different from saying it is a straight translation as it is clearly not. We must use secondary sources, which is all I have done here. A direct translation of the cidob article would be completely different, and what i have done is completely legit. how else do we write encyclopedia articles except through using good secondary sources. This can in no way be considered a copyvio. Whereas in English if you are taking from a source you reword what you have done, which is exactly what I did with this piece. I believe you are confusing copying from a secondary source from taking info from a secondary source, --SqueakBox 15:58, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
