I have created a substitute here to remedy the copyright problem. --Jayakumar RG (talk) 04:29, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. However, that text still contains passages copied directly from the source. For example, the source reads "... occurs in the same linguistic form in a wide range of sources and over millennia" and your proposed text reads "... is found to occur in the same linguistic form in a wide range of sources and over millennia". I'm afraid that is still not acceptable. Content has to be written in your own words. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:11, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
