From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yes, please leave the text in place, I have permission (its board of directors) from Flourtown Fire Company to create an entry and record their history on it. This is similiar to Fort Washington Fire Company, etc.

Your say-so isn't the same as a legal agreement from the copyright holders to license this material under the GFDL, and the copyright problem isn't the only problem- this article doesn't cite any reliable sources, and I'm not convinced that a local fire company meets the notability criteria. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:02, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
