Recent edit reversion

In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.) If you think my edit was mistaken, please politely let me know and I will investigate. S Philbrick (Talk) 19:03, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Using the original text used for the Nobel Prize nomination is probably a copyright violation. I thought it wouldn't since the text was published in 1928 which is more than 70 years ago. But I found now that the author Hans Wehberg died in 1962 which is less than 70 years ago. Therefore it might be more correct to use the text as a citation like in the article List of individuals nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize#1918. What do you think?
