The text in the article is a copy of [1] (by Ju Gosling) with a little paraphrasing. If User:Skull 'n' Femurs is Ms Gosling, or the text is relased under the GFDL or a compatible licence, that would be fine; otherwise not. I've left a query at User talk:Skull 'n' Femurs

However, even if we have permission to use this text, a number of paragraphs are quoted material from which the attribution has been removed. This is quite wrong, and the attributions should be restored if the material is kept. Gdr 18:27, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently no permission was given. So I'm afraid the text must go. Gdr 18:57, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I could quibble and dispute that 1. [2] was the prime source, (I'd never visited that page before the link was posted). 2. It was "with minor paraphrasing", but whatever - at least I did not simply cut 'n' paste without any changesas per Charles Matthews at school story...

If you didn't copy the text from Ju Gosling, where did you copy it from? And the paraphrasing is quite minor: most sentences were quite unchanged from Gosling's original. The main difference was that you made a few cuts and removed attribution from the quotes. Gdr 20:07, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You say it was from the one source, so you tell me? Since it has gone, how can I say otherwise? Whatever... ask Charles Matthews if he knows. Also, I removed no attribution(s) from the quotes. "Am I bothered?" (Is that quote copyright, as well?) Skull 'n' Femurs 20:35, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
