This article was tagged for copyright problems on October 28th and listed for administrator review. It has now come due for closure. Comparison with the various sources suggests that content may closely follow the originals in terms of structure and language. While I have not examined every subpage, the three I've looked at show that the article follows the sources quite closely and that the concerns are substantiated. To highlight these similarities, I present several passages, with content removed and some bolding to draw particular attention:

Article:

A squared sandstone with quoins, stone slate roofs. L-shaped plan from 1759 Two storeys, lintel of the 2-light window at first floor above the door is inscribed 0S M 1759. The gable has a worn datestone with letter F, a doorway and a window dated 1683. The interior has a timber framed partition with remains of a cruck blade at ground floor of the north end...

F, a doorway and a window in the 1683...The interior of this part has a timber framed partition with remains of a cruck blade at ground floor of the north end

Article:

The front end of the tie-beam of a large roof truss is joined to the jowelled head of a wall post indicating a former timber-framed building

Farmhouse and cottage, now all one dwelling. Dated 1710 on lintel of door, but with some internal evidence of earlier building.... Squared sandstone with quoins, slate roof....plain doorway at right hand end has large rectangular lintel with raised lettering in recessed panels S one I M; 1710...then a very prominent large gabled stair turret with a vertical rectangular stairlight and an oeil-de-boeuf at attic level...and a tall corner chimney.... Interior: housepart in 2nd bay has inglenook with stone heck and bressummer with tongue-stopped ovolo moulding, 2 lateral beams similarly decorated...partition wall between these contains braced large framing with wattle and daub...the front end of the tie-beam of a large roof truss is joined to the jowelled head of a wall post (suggesting former timber-framed construction)

Article:

The farmhouse is probably seventeenth century and has been altered and enlarged at an early period. The build is coursed sandstone rubble and squared stone, with quoins, slate roof with stone gable copings and gable chimneys. Right gable wall has a doorway near the front corner with chamfered surround and pointed Tudor-arched head, now covered by an added lean-to. A partition wall to the rear outshut appears to be timber-framed. The adjoining barn has lintel of former doorway with raised lettering G possibly I P : 1703.

covered by an added lean-to. ...the partition wall to the rear outshut appears to be timber-framed. History: not known, but adjoining barn has lintel of former doorway with raised lettering G possibly I P :1703

The third of these, obviously, follows particularly closely, but cumulatively there are problems throughout. While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are.

I have confirmed that the hosting website claims copyright of their content, here. If the material can be verified to be public domain or permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution.

If the material cannot be verified to be public domain or permission is not provided, this article should be rewritten in the temporary space that is now linked from the article's front so that it will not constitute a derivative work. 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".

I am relisting the article so that it can be revisited after a week to see if these problems have been addressed. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:48, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
