From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I moved your article Richard Lindon (1816-1887) Inventor of the rugby ball, the rubber inflatable bladder and the Brass Hand Pump to Richard Lindon, which is much easier to use in links and in the search box.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Richard Lindon article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material.

[edit] Article Deletion

(in response to User talk:Klacquement#Richard Lindon)

I'm sorry, but I can't undelete articles. You'll have to request an adminstrator to do that. The best choice would probably be User:RexNL, as he's the one that performed the actual deletion. However, it's quite likely to be deleted again by another. The problem is that there's no proof available that you own the website in question, so someone else is likely to call up a copyright comment. The best choice would be to re-write it using different words, and in an encyclopedic format. Klacquement 23:35, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
