[edit] Recent Changes

[edit] Copyvio

The original was a copyvio (amongst other things). User:Sharz fixed it up nicely, but that version has been replaced again by the copyvio. I've reveted back. -- Whpq 20:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

The page was taked directly from the Sri Lankan army site which is copyrighted. http://army.lk/com.php --Whpq 20:05, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

The Army website specifically states

Reproduction of these stories/data is possible provided its source is given its recognition.

so copyvio is not an issue here. But the article does need to be Wikified hence I'm rv and readding the wikify tag. --snowolfD4^{( talk / @ )} 21:03, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

If you read under the edit box "Do not copy text from other websites without permission. It will be deleted.", besides that the article has alot of unesscicary, confused biased and unsourced infomation. Essentially what you've done is reverted an article from being wikified and neutral to be in copyright breach (because the source is not acknowledged anyway) and POV. --Sharz 12:09, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

It is most certainly a copyright violation. Please read WP:C. It has not been released under the GFDL. Qnd even if it were, as User:Sharz pointed out, the article content is not written from a neurtal point of view. -- Whpq 12:51, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Snowolf please provide reference to the claims that you make. Specially the one which states "Pregnant LTTE suicide bomer". ThanksWatchdogb 23:30, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
