This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Australasian Hydrographic Society, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://ahs.asn.au/history.html.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 08:06, 16 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Restored at User:Rupert Gerritsen/Carte de Freycinet (1811). Once you have transferred it to the French Wikipedia, please let me know, or add "{{db-user}}" to the top of the article, so that this copy can be deleted again. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 15:13, 31 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

It's looking good to me - I'll drop Moonriddengirl a note to see if she's happy as she started the investigation and I want to make sure I haven't missed anything. In the mean time it would be helpful if you could sort out the formatting of the article. At a minimum the blank line need to be removed from the source so that each line isn't a separate paragraph. The formatting of some of the links also needs fixing but in this regard you should also be aware of Wikipedia:External links, which is short states that we don't have external links in the body of the article.

Thank you for your work in this. I went ahead and cleaned up some of the formatting (including the external links issue) so that the content could be published. It's now in place of the original article. I'll mark the listing closed. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:48, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
