[edit] Page created

I created this page to help move content off of the massive article on the Pearl Brewing Company. For the most part this is just now a direct cut and paste job from what was over on the Pearl page. Over the next week or so I hope to clean the article up and fix some of the page organization problems. Feel free to help if you'd like. --Brownings 13:59, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright

I removed Dorey Schmidt's account from this article. Since it is not released under the GFDL it means that it is non-free content, even if there is permission from Dorey Schmidt herself. Since it's likely she only gave permission to have it on this article, not permission to be releas the text under the GFDL. Therefore the material has to pass the Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria which it fails, mainly #1, the information could be rewritten (without plagiarizing) and #3a, the section is too large.

I'll email her this week and get it released as GFDL. I'd like to keep the story together as a whole, without a rewrite by me or a 4th party. When the story is published somewhere on the web in its entirely, then I'll rewrite and point to the original story as a Ref. --Brownings 02:35, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
