Copyright issues edit

As I mentioned at User talk:Iph, I am concerned that this article was awfully similar to the source material at http://bookbinding.co.uk/History.htm

I have added this page at Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2009 August 17 and saved a new version at Talk:Sangorski & Sutcliffe/Temp. I am not sure how much more of the original article can be incorporated there. -- Testing times (talk) 17:38, 17 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

It sure smells like a copyvio to me. You have to be a little careful with copyvio claims, as I've found Wikimedia content (not just Wikipedia) that has been reproduced elsewhere and then had copyright asserted as if it were to be the original source. In this case, owing to the few number of edits and all of the edits having happened in a short period of time, it certainly seems more likely that this was not the creation of an editor who took the time to come up with original wording in the first place or spent the effort to craft this article, as a legitimately written article on Wikipedia usually goes through. --Robert Horning (talk) 12:13, 20 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. There is some further discussion at User talk:Iph/Copyright. -- Testing times (talk) 19:28, 20 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
