This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Colin Legum, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/JOUlegum.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot 17:59, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Article Ok
[edit]That's much better - I've removed all the copyright tagging as it's substantially rewritten and only includes a couple of phrases now, which is acceptable use of source material. Exxolon 18:19, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
