Copyright violation

Much of the current article seems to have been copied directly from [1] Velella ^{Velella Talk} 23:14, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate that you may well be new to Wikipedia and it may be worth taking some time out to read about Wikipedia and how it works. For example, it is a convention that comments are written after another editors comments and not inserted in the middle. Signing comments using 4 tildes also ensures the everyone knows who has made the comment.

If permission has been granted to use copyright materials, there is a formal process that needs to be completed before the use of such material in an article. This link should be a good start. It would also be useful to read WP:ACADEMIC to understand the notability requirements for articles about members of academic staff.
