[edit] Speedy deletion of Sydney Hilton bombing/extracts

A tag has been placed on Sydney Hilton bombing/extracts requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

copied from article talk page:

This page is not a primary article (does not appear when searched for main article). Instead it contains extracts that provide references and citations for the primary article.

It is certainly not an infringement under any copyright laws. Extracts, properly cited and acknowledged, less than a chapter etc. are always ok under fair use. And I could probably get explicit permission from the newspaper. But the extracts are sadly not directly available on the web.

The fact that they are NOT in our words is the point, people want accessible reference material.

I could put them up on a private site, but it would be better to keep them all within the Wikipedia umbrella.

So, given that copyright is not the issue, what is the best way of doing this.

sorry, it is our policy not to include this material within WP, except in short quotations as relevant within an article. I've had to delete it. We are not a collection of sources, fair use or otherwise. Even if it were public domain, we would not include it. 04:47, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
