[edit]In regard to the allegations of violations of Copyrighted material in the essay under discussion, on careful examination it is found that the said contents/information had been adequately cited with credible reference.
The said sourced informations (alleged 'copyrighted materials') were earlier published on 4 December 2014 as "News Item" in several leading newspapers in printed & web versions from India including 'The Sentinel', 'The Assam Tribune' as well as some other popular vernacular dailies. As such, it is clear that the news was already in "Public Domain" not only in the internet, but also in the physical print media on 4 December 2014 through different respectable newspapers. In this essay, some of the relevant news items published in different print newspapers had been appropriately indexed and cited. Therefore, there is NO COPYRIGHT VIOLATION of any materials or information used in this essay.
Moreover, the "Public Domain" has been properly defined in Wikipedia as follows-- "For all practical purposes on Wikipedia, the public domain comprises copyright-free works: anyone can use them in any way and for any purpose. Proper attribution to the author or source of a work, even if it is in the public domain, is still required in order to comply with relevant policies. The public domain is generally defined (e.g. by the U.S. Copyright Office) as the sum of works that are not copyrighted, i.e. that were not eligible for copyright in the first place, or whose copyright has expired, or that were released into the public domain by the copyright holder."
From above, it is clear that the allegation of "Copyright Violation" in regard to this essay has been made because of some misunderstanding, miscommunications, or wrong interpretations of a COMMON NEWS ITEM published by different print journalism media like daily newspapers. The News Items was also NOT BYLINED, thereby eliminating the possibility of any "Copyright Holder Author" of the said news item.
Hope that the Administrator will kindly consider this topic while wrapping up his investigation of the allegations of copyright violation. Again, for record, neither the newspaper "The Sentinel" or any individual "author" holds any Copyright over the cited/referenced News published in print on 4 Dec 2014. 101.218.192.52 (talk) 08:40, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
- I'm afraid that you are misunderstanding "public domain." Being published is different than being public domain. Newspaper articles can and are copyrighted. Please see Wikipedia:Public domain for more on what constitutes public domain. See also this news story which is but one of many examples confirming that news stories are copyrighted. Citation is not the issue here; the issue is with quotations from copyrighted sources that exceed our deliberately narrow allowance in this area. Almost everything in an article should be written in your own words with brief and clearly marked quotations used for good reasons such as those set out at our non-free content policy and guideline. We cannot copy from a published source just because we want to use the same information; there must be a good reason that we do not put this in our own language.
- I have removed the overused quotations and will leave this to the AFC reviewers to determine, but I would suggest you review the rhetoric in the article for promotional language. Wikipedia is supposed to neutrally summarize what reliable sources say about notable subjects. We do not describe essays as "thought-provoking" or praise her research as painstaking or declare contributions priceless. This entire article needs to be scanned and toned down to a neutral presentation of facts. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 22:11, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
