Copyright Issue

These are some of the basic and most referred sources I have used.

• the official website of NIPCCD
• official about us page

and the website page [1] mentioned in copyright issue is in fact copy-paste of the offcial page. The official website comes under public domain and you can't place such allegations just because you got similarities at copy detector page. JPMEENA (talk) 21:55, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

I want to point something out. The website I mentioned in the copyright issue is a "copy-paste of the offcial page?" Well, I didn't find it by a copy-detector page, I found it by copy-pasting a few lines from the article into Google in quotes. So if it's a copy-paste of the official page, so is this. And even if the official page comes under public domain (prove that, please), that doesn't mean you can copy-paste it by my understanding of the rules. - Jorgath (talk) ^(contribs) 22:22, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

Can you please prove that a Government of India's work come under copyright? I like to know that can you write copyright issue on Constitution_of_India as I am newbie.JPMEENA (talk) 19:47, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

I don't know, specifically that it does. However, if it follows common practices of other governments in my experience, not everything it creates is in the public domain (the Constitution would be, but not every part of its website). Quite frankly, I have no problem with you writing this article, no problem with you using the official website as a source - just don't copy it word-for-word or paraphrase too closely, and I'll be happy. Although please be careful to add other, third-party sources as well. - Jorgath (talk) ^(contribs) 05:55, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

The most recent improvements alleviate my concerns. Well done! I'm going to do a little grammar-editing, but I have no problems with the content anymore. - Jorgath (talk) ^(contribs) 13:54, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing

Hi. I'm afraid this article has parts which are very closely paraphrased from [2]. This can be a problem under both our copyright policies and our guideline on plagiarism. While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation – including both structure and language – are. For an example of close paraphrasing, consider the following: The source says:

Established in New Delhi in the year 1966 under Societies Registration Act of 1860, it functions under the aegis of the Ministry of Women and Child Development. In order to cater to the region-specific requirements of the country, the Institute, over a period of time, has established four Regional Centres at Guwahati (1978), Bangalore (1980), Lucknow (1982) and Indore (2001).

The article says:

The Institute was established in 1966 under Societies Registration Act, 1860. It functions under the patronage of the Indian Ministry of Women and Child Development. In order to fulfill the region-specific requirements of the country, four Regional Centres have been established: Guwahati (in 1978), Bangalore (1980), Lucknow (1982), and Indore (2001).

The source says:

As a nodal resource agency, it has also been entrusted with the responsibility of training and capacity building of functionaries at the national and regional level, under the new scheme of Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS). It has also been designated, by the Ministry of Women and Child Development, the nodal institution for imparting training on two important issues of Child Rights and Prevention of trafficking of women & children for SAARC countries

The article says

It also has the responsibility for training and capacity building of functionaries at the national and regional level, under the new scheme of Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS). It has been designated by the Ministry of Women and Child Development as the central institution for imparting training on Child Rights and prevention of trafficking of women & children for SAARC countries.

These are examples; there are other passages that similarly follow quite closely.

As a website that is widely read and reused, Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously to protect the interests of the holders of copyright as well as those of the Wikimedia Foundation and our reusers. Wikipedia's copyright policies require that the content we take from non-free sources, aside from brief and clearly marked quotations, be rewritten from scratch.

Except for a list of explicit exceptions, set out at page p. 35 of India's copyright law, government works are protected. NIC's Terms of Use are not compatibly licensed ([3]) as they do not permit reproduction unless they are first emailed and as they forbid modification (" the material has to be reproduced accurately").

The article has been replaced with a notice of these copyright concerns that includes directions for resolving them. If the material can be verified to be compatibly licensed or public domain or if permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution. If you can resolve it that way, please let me know if you need assistance with those directions. Otherwise, so that we can be sure it does not constitute a derivative work, this article should be rewritten; there is a link to a temporary space for that purpose in the instructions which now appear in place of the article. The essay Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".

Please let me know if you have questions about this. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:20, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
