Supposed copyright issue

This article is not in violation of any copyright. It is a modification of the original KIKS TYO Wikipedia article which was soft deleted as per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/KIKS TYO. Undeletion of the article was requested in order to add sources, it was draftified to Draft:KIKS TYO to give one time to improve the article at 10:50, 6 July 2023 (UTC). Please see here Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion#c-UtherSRG-20230706105000-Yakiton-20230706093500

NOTE: The Kiks Tyo Wikipedia article was first created on 14 September 2007‎. All other sources on the web that may be similar, including but not limited to https://alchetron.com/KIKS-TYO seem to have taken their content from various iterations of the Kiks Tyo Wikipedia article since that time.

Further, in the "references" portion of the article at the supposed content owner website https://alchetron.com/KIKS-TYO, it clearly cites, lists and links to what was the original KIKS TYO wikipedia article.

Please see the bottom of the page on https://alchetron.com/KIKS-TYO where it says:

"References KIKS TYO Wikipedia" (Text) CC BY-SA

Lastly the https://alchetron.com/ domain was not in existence until 2013-08-05. Again, the original KIKS TYO Wikipedia article is from 2007. Here is a link to the KIKS TYO Wikipedia article as archived on 2012-7-1 prior to the https://alchetron.com/ domain's creation which proves that the https://alchetron.com/ site took its KIKS TYO content from Wikipedia: https://web.archive.org/web/20120701234005/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KIKS_TYO

As per the above evidence, and without a doubt, the copyright status of the text of the current KIKS TYO page has been clarified. The current Kiks Tyo Wikipedia article text that has been modified is originally from Wikipedia, nowhere else. The content of the Kiks Tyo page should be restored and some type of notice left so that this issue does not come up again. --Yakiton (talk) 03:34, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
