Copyright problem on Newcastle, Oklahoma
Content you recently added to the above article appears to have been copied from https://www.okhistory.org/publications/enc/entry.php?entry=NE011. Copying text directly from a source is a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy. Unfortunately, for copyright reasons, the content had to be removed. Also, in the future, please add attribution when copying from public domain sources: simply add the template {{PD-notice}}
after your citation. I have done so for the tornado info you added to the above article. Please do this in the future so that our readers will be aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. Thanks, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:53, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
- The bigger problem is that you summarily removed AND purged the material. This is all historical information, and pulled together from numerous sources and MUCH was rewritten. Instead of giving me a chance to rewrite it... you just purged it. This is contrary to the DMCA takedown process and far too heavy handed, especially for a simple page about a relatively small town. -- Avanu (talk)
- The size of the town is immaterial. It's the amount of copyright content you copied that's the issue. As mentioned on my talk page, I have temporarily undone the revision deletion to give you the opportunity to re-write the material in your own words. Here is a link to the copyvio detector where you can view the overlap so you can see what all needs to be re-written. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:15, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
- Alan Davenport (of Newcastle) who wrote the material for various Newcastle histories and the historical society, would probably be perfectly willing to give me permission to use his words. But I will first focus on a rewrite. -- Avanu (talk)
