Copyright problem: Cabbagetown, Toronto
editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Cabbagetown, Toronto, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images from either web sites or printed works. This article appears to contain work copied from http://www.crpmuseum.com/index.php?article=35 http://cabbagetownhcd.ca/cabbagetown-heritage-conservation-districts/cabbagetown-northwest-hcd/, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:
- If you have permission from the author to release the text under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC-BY-SA), leave a message explaining the details at Talk:Cabbagetown, Toronto and send an email with confirmation of permission to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". Make sure you quote the exact page name, Cabbagetown, Toronto, in your email. See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If you hold the copyright to the work: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License and GNU Free Documentation License, and note that you have done so on Talk:Cabbagetown, Toronto. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted "under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC-BY-SA), version 3.0", or that the work is released into the public domain, or if you have strong reason to believe it is, leave a note at Talk:Cabbagetown, Toronto with a link to where we can find that note or your explanation of why you believe the content is free for reuse.
It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Cabbagetown, Toronto saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved.

- Hi! If you want to release the content of your website for anyone, anywhere, to use as they wish, please follow one of the steps outlined in bullet-points 2 and 3 above – either place a CC BY-SA 3.0 notice on the website, or email permission to OTRS. Please note that there is no guarantee that the content will be restored to the article, and that content released in this way is only very rarely actually used in the encyclopaedia. Content in Wikipedia is based on what is reported in independent reliable sources, and is unlikely to be included if it is not.
- Once the copyright problem is resolved, I suggest that you confine your edits to the talk-page of the article, as your connection to the committee creates an apparent conflict of interest, and so you are strongly discouraged from editing the article directly. You are always welcome to propose changes on the talk-page, though. You can attract the attention of other editors by putting {{request edit}} (exactly so, with the curly parentheses) at the beginning of your request. Requested edits are subject to the same editorial standards as any other edit, and other editors may decline to act on them; requests that are not supported by independent reliable sources are unlikely to be accepted.
- Do please ask if any of this is not clear. Thanks, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:17, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
