Removing PROD

I've removed the PROD - I don't think that removing the page entirely is necessary. What we really need in this case is to have a ticket filed through OTRS to give permission to use the text from the UVA website. Some of the content would still need to be re-written, but this would give us a little more leeway with things, since we would be able to closely paraphrase things while trying to re-write them in a neutral fashion.

OK, I've expanded the article some, but there's still a few chunks of information to expand on with the material that used to be on the page. I'll have to come back to this in a little bit after I'm done with my schoolwork for the week. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:53, 19 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I took a brief break to do a bit more. There's more I want to add in here, but I'm waiting on the OTRS ticket to clear, as some portions are taken word for word from the official website. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 10:44, 19 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There is a ticket in OTRS for the content, if anyone is wondering - it just hasn't been added to the article. Tokyogirl79LVA (talk) 12:56, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've added the OTRS pending tag - it's not pending but I did want to get the ticket number added to the page. Tokyogirl79LVA (talk) 13:44, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- @Tokyogirl79LVA: THis seems to have been forgotten. Please see the "source for the OTRS template above, and possibly intregrate some of it, in to the artice. --(t) Josve05a (c) 09:50, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - Actually never mind. It is under cc-by-sa 4.0. (t) Josve05a (c) 09:52, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    - (To further clarify, we can't use that content until Wikipedia's licenses get updated from 3.0 to 4.0, per WMF legal). (t) Josve05a (c) 01:49, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Josve05a, do we know which revision the infringing material was inserted in? We typically revdel CC-BY-SA 4.0 material. I'm pinging Diannaa on this as she has been working on the other 4.0 issue we had today. TonyBallioni (talk) 01:52, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't checked, but the OTRS ticket is from February 2016, and Tokyogirl79 did some rewriting then, so I'm guessing revisions prior to that. ;) (t) Josve05a (c) 02:18, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The content was added beginning with 18:24, February 25, 2011 and was removed at 19:53, February 17, 2016. Revision deletion complete. The current version looks okay from a copyright point of view. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:56, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
