Talk:Matthew Thomlinson

Text added from sources other than the British Civil War site

"He was the second son of John Thomlinson of York, England, and his wife Eleanor, daughter of Matthew Dodsworth (Dictionary of National Biography, Sidney Lee, 1898)" Added by user:MarmadukePercy on 27 March 2008.

"On the expulsion of the Long Parliament he was chosen as one of the members of the Council of State that succeeded it, and of the Barebones Parliament. Sent to Ireland to join the government there, he was knighted by Henry Cromwell who, nevertheless, distrusted him; in 1658 he was recalled to London as one of Ireland's representatives in Oliver Cromwell's new House of Peers." ( Concise Dictionary of National Biography (1930) and Cobbett's Parliamentary history of England, from the Norman Conquest in 1066 to the year 1803 (London: Thomas Hansard, 1808) [1]) Added by user:Rgmmortimore on 27 January 2008

Copyleft problem

I have deleted this article and recreated it as a stub but included the text from the previous version (laid out in the previous section of this talk page) as this text was not derived from the copy left version.

This is because Wikipedia Wikipedia:Text of Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License allows commercial distribution, but the current licence used by the British Civil War website is Attribution-Non-Commercial-Share Alike 3.0 Unported, which places a restriction "Non-Commercial — You may not use this work for commercial purposes." which the Wikipedia license does not.

Providing the requirements of the Terms of Use and WP:plagiarism are met there is no reason why information from the British Civil War website can not be summarised and and cited like any other copyright text. But it can not be copied under its copyleft licence into Wikipedia articles because its licence is more restrictive than the Wikipedia licence. --PBS (talk) 19:42, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
