[edit] Copyright Violations?

I'm new here, but this looks like substantially the same information as on the MILSET home page. Do we have permission to use the material? I didn't want to flag this as a copyright violation right out, just wanted to check to see where we go with this... JByrd 11:50, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Permission obtained from the Copyright holder

Hi JByrd,

I am the one who put the text in the first place, and it was done in accordance with the writer (which is actually a bunch of people belonging to MILSET, over years) and with the http://www.milset.org/ webmaster. So the Copyright is not an issue here, no worry.

But I went to the guidelines and the issue seems more that the paper should be rewrited in a more Encyclopedic way and look less as a self-promotion paper for the group.

I will try to manage that and to draft something more "open" to submit to the Wikipedia community, but it might not be in the following days as I am currently finishing a mission abroad and should be in holidays for 10 days.

If you think the paper in its current form is better to be deleted then go and tag it.

BTW after I saw the first Deletion proposal on this copyright issue I included a notice telling about the permission obtained, but it has been removed with the deletion tag.

As I am quite new to Wikipedia edition system, I am not going to put it back without learning better how things work here !

Best,
