Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Ten-fifty-one. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.ten-fifty-one.com/mods.html in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
-
- If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Ten-fifty-one with a link to where we can find that note;
- If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:Ten-fifty-one with a link to the details.
Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:Ten-fifty-one saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.
It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -wizzard2k (C•T•D) 21:13, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you for the information
Copied from User talk:Wizzard2k:
You sent me some info about the Ten-Fifty-One article, and unfortunately due to a busy work week I did not see it until today. I would've updated that the information was posted with the direct permission of the copyright owner (i thought I already had).
Unfortunately, some other person decided to go in and delete the material already, so i'm not going to bother to waste my time re-doing it. I don't think that wikipedia is for me, as it moves much too quickly and unless you have significant time daily to respond to things, there is no way that any contribution will be long-lived. :(
I appreciate the note, I just wish that the other user had the same courtesy.
Thanks,

- Sorry you didn't see it until now. If you do decide to post it again, take a few moments first to familiarize yourself with the GFDL and Wikipedia copyright policy. Any content posted here has to be completely free. Permission of the copyright owner to post here isn't enough, it has to be relicensed under the GFDL. -wizzard2k (C•T•D) 05:24, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
