Response to your question
- Ok, the reason the article needs to be deleted is that it is new and has a copyright violation in it's history. In just an little while it will be deleted, removing the copyright violation from the history. At that point you are welcome to recreate the article using your own words, refering to the original document as a source.
- The status of the image does not effect the article in any way. The image must be deleted until proof of it's release to a compatable license. If, as you say, the other is willing to change the copyright notice from All rights reserved to something compatable with wikipedia, such as the Creative Commons license, then we will welcome it.
- We try not to hassle new users too much, but it is essential that we keep this site copyright free. Just wait a few hours till the page is deleted, then go ahead and recreate it in your own words, no problem. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 18:05, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
