Copyright
[edit]Your recent article about Peter Gentle was a verbatim copy of this article produced by the Press Association that appeared in many newspapers, including The Guardian (where I found it). You may not copy newspaper articles directly into Wikipedia, as this violates Wikipedia's copyright guidelines. Rather, you must rewrite any text in your own words, as I have done with your article.
