Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Icaros. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Re: Copyright

(For those reading this later, this is in reference to the Icaros AfD) We have no way of knowing who is in control of your account, and as many web pages are held under some form of copyright that is incompatible with the terms of the GFDL, there is a strict policy against using copyrighted material on Wikipedia without permission. If you are indeed Howard Charing, you may want to send an email to permissions-en AT wikimedia DOT org to grant permission for Wikipedia to use the text at this link [1] in the Icaros article. It may also be necessary to request permission from the owners of that website, as the copyright notice at the bottom of the page claims that they are the owners of the copyright, not you. I'll leave the article alone for now to allow you to do all of this, however I should note that the consensus of the AfD discussion linked above was to redirect Icaros to another article, and another editor may re-enforce this decision at any time. Re-creation of material removed by an AfD discussion can be again removed without discussion under Criteria for Speedy Deletion G4. For more information, you may want to look through WP:COPY, WP:V, and WP:CSD. I hope this helps some. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 20:40, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
