Talk:History of Syracuse, New York

Article history

This article has been split off, almost in entirety, from the main, Syracuse, New York, article, which has had problems of being overly long. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 03:56, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

Possibly copyrighted material

Wikipedia's bots have found that passages in this article (split off from the main article) may have been copied or closely paraphrased from the following source: http://www.shadesofoakwood.com/pages/syrhist.html. As this source has been used in multiple places in this article, it may take some time and effort to rectify this problem. Contributions most welcome! Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 03:56, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

As you will have seen, I've listed this at WP:CP as a consequence. Obviously I'm sorry about this, though it's neither my fault nor yours. The page can be rewritten at Talk:History of Syracuse, New York/Temp. As a suggestion, rather than rewrite from scratch, you could perhaps work from the version of the history that's in, say, this revision of the page, and thus (I sincerely hope!) fairly certainly "clean". If no-one does a rewrite in the next 10 days or so, I might just copy over that content to replace what's here now. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:59, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

Copyright problem removed

Prior content in this article duplicated one or more previously published sources. The material was copied from: http://www.shadesofoakwood.com/pages/syrhist.html.
