Copyright problems

You need to make sure to observe the WP:COPYVIO and WP:PLAGIARISM policies. For example, some content added here is too similar to the source here. You'll need to rewrite such instances. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 23:38, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Resolving copyright issues

Ordinarily, copyright matters are left for clean up for seven days. Given the circumstances, this one has been left a bit longer. Cleanup has been gradually ongoing, but there is one section of the article which you authored which needs attention if it is not to be removed. The section under "United States" labeled "The Punishment Approach" replicates content that has been previously published here (see also [1]). We can only use it if we can prove that it is public domain because, for instance, the US government published it first. I haven't been able to prove that. Though the government published it in 1984, Saxon House seems to have had it first in 1978. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:08, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. If you'll post it at Talk:Food power/Temp, I'll be happy to review it and, if it is clear, put it into the article. Just drop me a note at my talk page letting me know when it's ready. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 20:26, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since there has been no additional action on this and the article has been listed at the copyright problems board for over two weeks, I've removed the copyright sections remaining in the article and deleted the temporary page. Please be careful if you edit the article further to remain compliant with copyright policy. You're welcome to come by my talk page if you have questions about this. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 15:23, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I didn't realize it was you who had put that in the article. I removed it because it wasn't sourced. :) I'll check it out for duplication, and you should go ahead and add whatever sources you may be using to the text. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:23, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
