link broken

The page may be temporarily down, but the link to writing world is not working. Also, I repaired the referencing problems, I suggest removing the wikify bar at the top.Editfromwithout (talk) 22:17, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

To merge American piracy of British literature into International Copyright Act of 1891 given overlap of scope and quality concerns related to the former article. Klbrain (talk) 15:52, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Plagiarism is not piracy. This article assumes that plagiarism equates to piracy and the terms are completely different. It is not neutral and has questionable accuracy about its assertions. This essay-like article needs a peer review. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 15:23, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is no mention of the International Copyright Act of 1891, which is critical to this topic. In fact, I don't see anything worth keeping that isn't covered more neutrally and accurately in that article. I am not particularly Wiki-savvy, but perhaps the two articles should be merged? 96.32.176.151 (talk) 02:28, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

After spending a substantial amount of time trying to polish this article into something workable, I must confess I agree with you. I will start the process of merging this article with that one Imjoshmathews (talk) 21:55, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

British literature article

This article was briefly merged with the British literature article, though it does not look like it was discussed on this page. I reverted this as in inappropriate (see BL Talk). I note that the editor who made the merge has been blocked. Rwood128 (talk) 17:18, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
