Copyright
You may want to read Misplaced Pages's policy on "using copyrighted work from others," which is here. I don't know much about Misplaced Pages copyright policy, but it would probably benefit you to read up on it if you want to keep your articles from being deleted. P4k 06:34, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
advice from Ceyockey: I've done some investigating at the behest of respondents to my request for review of my actions ... the methods for informing on an article's talk page that copyright has been secured are described at Misplaced Pages:Requesting_copyright_permission#When_permission_is_confirmed. The contents of the page in which this passage sits, along with the link provided by P4k and the page Misplaced Pages:Example requests for permission should be sufficient to help you overcome any copyright concerns that we (Misplaced Pages editors) might have over the copyright status of the material. I hope you understand why I was so ham-fisted over this matter and apologize if my actions seemed downright draconian. Avoiding copyright infringement is a big deal and a never ending exercise here on Misplaced Pages. Regards --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 15:01, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
