[edit] No copyvio

Data has been mostly copied from Ministry of Environment & Forests site [1] and hence is in public domain -- ^{PlaneMad|YakYak} 11:00, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

That does not necessarily make it public domain. It is PD because it is information, and information cannot be copyrighted. Indian government websites are copyrighted, but what is copyrighted is the style, wording and presentation of text. =Nichalp «Talk»= 15:11, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Updated PA list

An updated source of the PA list is the National Wildlife Database Cell, WILDLIFE INSTITUTE OF INDIA DEHRADUN, (position as on April 23, 2007), retrieved 7/25/2007 LIST OF PROTECTED AREAS. This may lead to some modification of List of protected areas in India and associated lists and PAs which I can not do.-Marcus 10:47, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
