Talk:Ontario Clean Water Agency

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article was nominated for deletion on 27 July 2006. The result of the discussion was keep rewritten version.

I have rewritten all the informatio in my own words. Words are not copyrighted. Information is not copyrighted. Someone should look at this objectivly. The censoring of this article is getting to the point of rediculous. Water is called water. Water Treatment is called water treatment. None of the terms used are copyright. Sentences have all been changed and the layout is completely different. What is it that considered copuright on this new version? You don't like the wording feel free to reword but don't censor the information.

[edit] Version comparison

I think I'm pretty impartial and objective. There are two problems here: First, this article has already been deleted three times as a copyright violation (and by three different administrators). If you contest the deletion, follow the process, please don't just repost the same content. I already placed a link to the process for deletion review on your talk page. Second, I compared the two versions - out of 148 words there's only 15 words of difference. The Wikipedia article even follows the same structure, paragraph by paragraph, of the OCWA article on the government website. Even if you did totally rewrite the information in your own words, it looks like a copyright violation. At this point, please stop reposting, the current CSD is not for copyvio - it is for reposting deleted material. Brian 18:50, 27 July 2006 (UTC)btball

[edit] Corrected several errors

Existed for decades by the mid-1990s? I corrected the errors I could identify. There's a big gap in the history that will need to be filled in. --Gary Will 02:30, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Oops, I was editing simultaneously with Osgoodelawyer so my edit summary makes no sense. In brief, the article was riddled with errors. I fixed what I could. I'll look to see if I accidentally overwrote something. --Gary Will 02:35, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

My edits were pretty minor, I think you've fixed them all and done a lot more. Good work. OzLawyer 11:50, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice Job Cleaning up the Article

I guess no one can object to the current version now. I will do some work on filling in the gaps in the history and evolution of the water treatment speding problems in the province of Ontario. You guys sure know how to write good looking articles.WikiWoo 04:35, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Make sure that you reference what you add and be sure to be careful about bias. Even a properly referenced fact can be presented in an unacceptably slanted way. Facts, without interpretation (or insinuation)—that's what you want. Also, try to balance such facts with counter-facts where available. OzLawyer 11:47, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
