[edit] Article taken verbatim from published source

The original article, created by an anonymous editor with no subsequent contributions nor active talk page, was apparently transcribed verbatim from the entry on Herbert Kappler in the Encyclopaedia of the Holocaust and no attribution given. (Section headers were added.) As copyright violation would unfortunately result in the deletion of this article, I'm taking the following action:

  • Adding citation of the source article in References
  • Light copyediting of the text (limited by time constraints)

I would appreciate if other editors would assist by further copyediting so that only relevant material remains. --Thanks, Deborahjay 19:11, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

FURTHER TREATMENT - see next heading on copyright violation -- Deborahjay 19:24, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tagging article for copyright violation

Upon further advice at the New contributors' help page, it seems that the proper course of action is to tag the article for copyright violation -- that will result in its deletion and the need for rewriting, rather than editing the existing article. As an interim measure, I'm adding the citation under References as above. -- Deborahjay 19:29, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

have done some further editing including adding a little info plus tidying, translation, references and 'see also'. Consequently (and based on the work by others in the intervening period) have removed the 'stub' appellations to return it to uncategorized to allow others to judge. Also note the copyright violation has long since been removed. - HTH r 03:12, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Msgr O'Flaherty and Kappler's interactions with the Vatican/Church

[1] adds some insight into Kappler as well as what may well be an article on Msg O'Flaherty. In accordance with guidelines i have not put external link in the article. There are 4 sections (1 Times article, 1 sourced from a book on the subject and 2 of unclear attribution). I hope they will either be of interest or of use to add to actual articles. r 03:46, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
