Dear Bot, I am not familiar with copyright things. Do you think this goes to non-profit organisations, too? If yes, feel free for deletion. --Tubesship (talk) 15:28, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'm not a bot. Copyright applies to non-profit organisations, yes. Ironholds (talk) 15:29, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
Oh, so I guess I have to ask this organisation if it is ok for them to copy and paste their infos here on Wikipedia, right? Will the bot wait for the answer? How speedy is a speedy deletion? --Tubesship (talk) 15:41, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
Very speedy; a matter of hours. They are unlikely to let you, and even if they did we'd need direct confirmation from them. Ironholds (talk) 15:45, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
No problem, the deletion is not a loss as it was only copy and paste - and of course I would forward the confirmation and not keep it as a secret. --Tubesship (talk) 15:56, 29 April 2009 (UTC)BTW: Why do you think it is unlikely to get a permission from them?Reply
Because they made the content, and allowing its use on Wikipedia involves waiving several legal rights. Ironholds (talk) 16:00, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
That would be a pity. But nevertheless feel encouraged to create an article about this organisation. I think it is necessary, don't you? --Tubesship (talk) 16:16, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
Not necessarily; so far I haven't seen any evidence it passes WP:ORG. Ironholds (talk) 16:20, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
The problem is that in the article about Roderic H. Davison there is a link to this organisation. So to make the link work we need this article here. You know what I mean? The link would be dead! --Tubesship (talk) 16:23, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
We don't create articles for the sake of links, more links for the sake of articles. I'd suggest just delinking it. Ironholds (talk) 16:24, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have started a new article that doesn't have copyright problems. John Vandenberg (chat) 05:27, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Turkish Studies Group

edit

From the bibliographic records of the newletter, I can see that this organisation dates back further, as the Turkish Studies Group. Also on an article v. 6 of Political science (journal) (1973; American Political Science Association) says[1]:


And Turkish Studies Association bulletin, Volume 21, Issue 1 (1997):


So I am adding this, even although I dont have access to those journal article, but I suspect lots of other good details are in those two journal articles. John Vandenberg (chat) 05:49, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
