Contested deletion edit

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because the all content all .gov.ph websites in the public domain unless otherwise specifically stated. OWWA does not have explicit restrictions on content.--Exec8 (talk) 16:07, 27 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • @Exec8: Hi, do you have links to any other gov.ph sites used? They are PD as you say, but for attribution purposes we do need to link to them to avoid plagiarism concerns. Also, the copyright bot sees a much larger match to a non-gov site from 2011 here: [1]. That may be a mirror of an older version of the gov site, but again, we need to source that. Thanks!

According to our article on Official text copyright, only "... official text of a legislative, administrative or legal nature and official translation thereof" is copyright-free in the Philippines. The text of the source page is informative rather than any of those things, and is also clearly marked "Copyright © 2016". Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 07:36, 31 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
