User talk:Jzongker

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi Jzongker. You can provide permission but not just by simply posting on the (now deleted) article's talk page. As stated over at WP:CP:

If you submitted work to Wikipedia which you had previously published (especially online), and your submission was marked as a potential infringement of copyright, stating that you are the copyright holder of the work on the article's talk page helps, but will not likely prevent deletion. It is sufficient to:
    • Make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL at the site of the original publication.
    • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions at wikimedia dot org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation.--Fuhghettaboutit 00:18, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Credit Card info article

Text is verbatim from http://[www.creditorweb.com/creditcards/articles/showarticle0091.html]

In order to use this text on wikipedia explicit permission to use and create derivative works must be given, and from a source which can be verified as the copyright owner.

I'm sorry to put you through this, but that's how it is. All text on wikipedia must be copyright-free, because it will be "edited mercilessly". We certainly would appreciate being able to legally use this text as the basis for an article if that can be arranged. If not, it will be deleted as often as it is reposted, that's just how it is, and I hope you can understand. By the way, welcome to wikipedia! Let me know if I can be of any help to you at all.
