This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Canadian Diamond Code of Conduct, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.diamondwholesalecorporation.com/CanadianDiamondCodeofConduct.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 18:06, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

RE: Canadian Diamond Code of Conduct[edit]
Hello Mr. Leblanc, I apologize for not responding to you sooner. Unfortunately, I do not believe that this article should be restored. As Coren said above me, you can release the text of the Code into the public domain so that it could potentially be used; however, the article as it was when I deleted it was a pretty serious infraction of Wikipedia's advertising prohibition. While I understand your desire to have your consumers better educated about the Code, it is not a function of Wikipedia to serve as any medium for promotional purposes. If you have any more questions, please feel free to email me or use my talk page. Thanks. GlassCobra 15:04, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
