Talk:The Bounty
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Possible copyvio, but no big deal. I just read a long review by a university professor or student and recognized several phrases. We should probably give credit for these. I'll try to google it up again. --Uncle Ed 19:35, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
This edit is identical in several paragraphs with this copyrighted web page. So either someone plagiarized Wikipedia, or we did a copyvio. Until I can figure out which copied from which, I think I'll just delete the identical paragraphs. Better safe than sorry. --Uncle Ed 19:54, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
Boy will I be embarassed if it turns out they copied from us, because I just cut all but one of the identical paragraphs, and left a link. --Uncle Ed 20:05, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
I wrote the paragraphs originally that were cut out, and I didn't copy them from any other source. I'm pretty sure that these people copied the articles word for word from Wikipedia.

- Ok, I put some of it back, but made sure it was not a word for word repition of what's on solar navigator.

[edit] Lots of POV in this...
Wow... so the mutiny was all about carnal sex? That's not accurate. It was more complicated than that. It was also about love. I mean, these guys started a new colony... what, for sex? So the captain did "just as any other captain would do"? NO... he continuously risked the lives of his men for his own glory and became increasingly mad at sea... remember, the whole "rounding the Horn"(Cape Horn, South America) part? How about that being a GREAT motivator for mutiny instead of this sexual motivation you are dishing out in this POV entry. This entry does not represent the movie. It's someone's slanted opinion of it; missing fact after fact that would allow the reader to have more balanced and accurate info in regards to the movie. It's like the writer didn't see the movie.
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:The bounty 1984.jpg
Image:The bounty 1984.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
