[edit]

Is there a copyright violation here? Chunks of the history seem to be from the official site. Maybe someone has permission or it's not needed, but I don't see this stated - shouldn't it be? Or maybe the Beeb nicked it from here?? Anyway, for what it's worth please compare the wp text:

Throughout the war the Orchestra played its part by moving out of the studio to give concerts to members of the forces. It was a strange life for the players during those wartime years; sometimes concerts were accompanied by air-raid sirens and visits to cities such as Huddersfield and Sheffield often meant long journeys over the moors in the blackout.

The Orchestra came under threat of disbandment many times in its first 60 years. The '60s was a period of great growth - not just in terms of numbers, but in terms of musical excellence and public recognition.

- and so on. Is there a problem here? Thanks 138.37.199.206 16:29, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Yes, you're right. All this violates copyright, so I've removed it. I've reverted it to original copy I wrote in December 2005. Cal T 08:40, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
