Durham (poem) translation

[edit]

Hi Hyperglyph -- thanks for adding the translation to Durham (poem) -- unfortunately it appears to be in copyright, according to the website you linked, and so can't be used on Wikipedia. I'll add it as external link so that people can read it. I'm still seeking a clearly out-of-copyright translation for it. Espresso Addict (talk) 12:47, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ETA Ah, now I'm confused! These pages state the site provides "open-access translations" [1],[2] but the poem itself has a clear copyright statement at the bottom. Will investigate further... Espresso Addict (talk) 12:58, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'd thought it was a freely available scholar's resource, since the professor's disclaimer described it as "open access" & meant for "students". I totally missed the copyright claim at the bottom. Thanks for fixing my work. Hyperglyph (talk) 06:16, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe the copyright is a generic stamp for Rutger's entire website? That's a stretch though. You're probably right to err on the side of caution. Hyperglyph (talk) 06:20, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your understanding -- unfortunately we do have to err on the side of caution. Even if the author is happy for it to be copied for the use of students, the commercial part of our licence would not be covered. At least the link will let people understand the poem now!

Important Notice

[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in abortion. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
