| While it is no ], Marion County is a constant in the ''1632'' series. Indeed, an electronic catalog of the holdings of the Marion County Public Library is used as one of the guidelines for what an SF writer working in the series should expect to be available in Grantville. Marion County officials, equipment, etc. are mentioned on a regular basis. It may not seem like much, but these books have sold millions of copies; and it's a lot more presence than the typical West Virginia county has ever had in literature; Matewan comes closest, but of course that's a town, not a county. --] | ] 02:47, 31 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

| :* {{tq|I have no idea which parts you did not like}}—it's not that I didn't like them; they were nice, it's just that a good chunk of the article was copied from other sources. For example, you wrote {{tq|In 1959 he retired from the stage because of arthritis.}} This has the line {{tq|Mr. Danielian retired from the stage in 1959 because of arthritis}}, which is almost identical. Similarly for most(?) of the article. We simply can not do this; Misplaced Pages's servers, etc, are located in the US, which has, for better or worse, quite robust copyright law. | |||
| :* {{tq|it would have been better if you had left at least some parts of it to develop on}}—There wouldn't be much left. Most of what was left would be the part copied from ] (which would still require proper attribution, for example in your edit summary). | |||
| :* {{tq|Could you please return my work back.}}—No, I don't think I can restore it, again due to the legal issues. Although feel free to ask a different administrator to do it; someone might know more about copyright law and be able to help you. You may be able to find some of your prose in Google's cache for some amount of time if it is helpful to use it as an outline while rewriting this if you would like to do that.

Thank you for explaining yourself but I am still at a loss with why the creation of this new name shouldn't be able to seed its history here, this is where people come and find meanings, the real meaning of this name might get lost down the line if its not documented on websites people trust if you know of a better and last longing website for this please point me there but I still hope to have it on wiki, the deletion of the older one is OK as it could of been layed out better and I was going to do that soon as I leaned how if you can also help me find a way to post it where it follows all the rules I willing to jump throw these loops -- ] (]) 00:48, 19 December 2013 (UTC) | |||
