Copyright issue[edit]

The CorenSearchBot states that text was copied directly from MinnPost (minnpost.com), but it may also be pertinent to the text's copyright status that MinnPost appears to have published the text as originally created by MNopedia, an online encyclopedia of Minnesota-related topics. Wikipedia's own article on MNopedia states that "Online newspaper MinnPost publishes entries from MNopedia on a weekly basis as well as publishing bimonthly news articles that are later developed into entries for MNopedia".

I'm not a copyright expert myself so I left the CorenSearchBot notice up & just posted this note on the Talk page. But it seems to me that an online encyclopedia (like MNopedia) would likely publish text about the history of Minnesota's Finnish immigrant community under a different license than an online periodical (like MinnPost). I just wanted to make sure that whoever follows up on the robot's finding considers that the text probably does not originally come from the place where the robot detected it as copied from. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Indnwkybrd (talk • contribs) 03:56, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't a copyright violation as the text was taken from MNopedia [1] and that link is available under the same licence Wikipedia uses. Hut 8.5 22:54, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
