I cut out a copyvio in the first section. The author replaced it and I removed it again. I then checked the article more closely and found the second section was just one long quote. If I removed it as well there would be noting of substance. Jbh (talk) 14:49, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

I think I sorted out the issue with the content now. This is the first time I use wikipedia, so I thought that using quote marks and very clear references would mean there are no issues. I thought I had resolved the issue with the first quote by having better citation. I guess not! Anyway, User:Jbhunley was kind enough to sort that out by deleting the quote in question. User: Jbhunley also noticed that there's an issue with the other quote (which I again didn't know was an issue since when I wrote it I thought quoting was fine if there was citation). I paraphrased the second section now though (and obviously kept the reference). I think the article should be fine now as there are no more copyright issues and there is content. This has been a valuable learning experience: I now know that you can't quote (even if you reference)! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jazz1479 (talkcontribs) 16:49, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

I removed the db-copyright tag I placed. You can use small direct, cited, quotes on Wikipedia just not big blocks of text. Give our WP:COPYVIO and WP:COPYRIGHT pages for our policies Jbh (talk) 17:37, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the important lesson User:Jbhunley! I'm definitely going to read those two pages thoroughly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.105.80.1 (talk) 18:19, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
