[edit] Copyvio
I have added copyvio to this page due to User talk:141.163.84.1's complaint of copyvio, I have told him how to report this. HighInBC 15:56, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
- I took a look back in the history an it appears the person who posted the complaint about the copyvio is the person who originally created the article. — TheKMantalk 15:58, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
If that is true, and he does hold the copyright, did he surrender it when he posted it? Or can he still enforce it? Does anybody know? HighInBC 16:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
When contributing, users must "agree to license your contributions under the GFDL." I do not believe you can re-claim the text after releasing it. — TheKMantalk 16:19, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Copyright#Contributors' rights and obligations states: "You can never retract the GFDL license for the versions you placed here: that material will remain under GFDL forever." I have removed the copyright notice. — TheKMantalk 04:52, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
We have recieved a complaint on OTRS about this article (ticket #2006060610007684). Basically, the primary author is a graduate student who, misunderstanding the nature of wikipedia, posted some of her original research here and now wishes to have it removed. As it is original research, I'm going to delete it in a few hours per Wikipedia policy; I'm also going to ask her if she would do us a favor and supply a small (non-original-research) replacement.
