[edit] {{copyvio}}

Some of the text you put in International Commission on Missing Persons looks suspect. Did you copy and paste? --evrik (talk) 18:24, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi, evrik. I did copy and paste parts from the official ICMP Fact Sheet. Can you clarify what you find suspicios so that I can check? And thanks for that info, I am still fresh to wikipedia :) Jasmin 09:06, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Anything that is copied and pasted is suspicious. ;-) It has to be rewritten so it isn't plagiarizing the website. :-) --evrik (talk) 14:04, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
And what if it's c&p-ed by consent of the author? Do I still have to rephrase the text? I know these are facts because I actually work for ICMP. I can upload the original fact sheet too. Thanks for your help! ّّJasmin 14:36, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
  • It depends on the copyright on the original website. I would check the copyright there, but it would probably be simpler if the copied text were reworked so it's not an exact copy. --evrik (talk) 14:52, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
