[edit] Copyright violation: Debi Doss

Your contributions to the Debi Doss article appear to be quite nearly blatant copyright violations of this page on the Debi Doss website. The Wikipedia does not accept or use work that is not freely licensed. If you ever have concerns about whether or not you can use a certain text here on the Wikipedia, you can ask here.

Please note however, that you can certainly use things like this page as a source, writing your own prose and citing things appropriately. For further information on this, visit Wikipedia:Attribution.

Thank you for clarifying. You might want to note on the website that the full text is in the public domain, is available under the GNU Free Documentation License, is licensed under a Creative Commons, or is licensed under some other copyleft license. Currently, there is no copyright status on the page, and thus according to UK copyright law, your intellectual work is automatically protected from being copied or claimed by another individual or organization. Thus, a piece of work without copyright information that is directly copied to the Wikipedia is in fact, a "blatant copyright violation." Cheers. -- drumguy8800 C T 06:53, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violations

Note that this is your second warning on this matter.

Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Andrew Derbyshire. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://tanithsjosephsite.homestead.com/Joseph.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:Andrew Derbyshire 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:Andrew Derbyshire 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:Andrew Derbyshire 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. Your original contributions are welcome. Vaniac 06:52, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
