From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the hang (instrument) article, but for legal reasons, we CANNOT accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material.
As a consequence, your article will most likely be deleted; in fact, it may already have been deleted.
Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text - which means allowing other people to modify it - then you have to prove that it's yours (because people can and do lie) by adding, on the external site, the statement that "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I irrevocably release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, for use on Wikipedia and elsewhere."
You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. DS 14:04, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
