[edit] UCAR Point of Presence
I tagged UCAR Point of Presence for speedy deletion. It appears to have been copied and pasted from a website (see the description at the article). Please don't copy and paste from websites, as this is a copyright violation. For legal reasons, Wikipedia does not allow copyrighted material to be posted.

[edit] Re: Deleted Page
First, you'll want to take a look at WP:N, to make sure that these entities are notable enough to be here. I don't remember UCAR POP completely, but I believe it did satisfy this requirement. I tagged this for deletion because it turned out to be a copy+paste of another website. There are two things you can do here:
- If you do own the page you are copying and pasting, put a clear message at the bottom of it that you release it into the public domain, via the GNU Free Documentation License (also known as the GFDL)
- If you don't own the page, or want to retain its copyrighted status, you can try to write a page here from the ground up, that isn't a copy+paste of the original. If you do this, be sure to cite the original as the source of your information.
Hope this helps. I seem to recall it was a decent topic for a page, but there's always a concern with copyrights, so that's why I tagged it to delete. Good luck with the next version. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 05:09, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
