Please clarify what you mean by "anarchic". There is no such concept in US copyright law. Either something is verifiably out of copyright as a US federal document, its age or because it has been licensed as public domain by its author, or it is assumed to be in copyright.
Wikipedias have different copyright and other rules, the fact that the article has existed in other languages doesn't help you here.
You did did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that he meets the notability guidelines. Wikis are not reliable sources. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, or they will be deleted.
it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.

I'm not convinced that the article is free of copyright, so I can't restore it unless you can show that is the case. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:59, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I can understand, the site is denying any responsibility for the status of its content, so it's not clear if copying from the site is infringing copyrights or not. But in any case, a wiki-based site is not acceptable as a reliable source (including en-wiki).

Are you are able to assure me that the traditio text is not copied from an identifiable source, such as the article references?
Does the licence for traditio permit reuse for any purpose, including commercial?

If the answer to both questions is affirmative, that deals with the copyright issue, and perhaps we can move on Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:10, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
