I was reading the article regarding David Jackson stating he was born in Liverpool Lancshire. Liverpool is not in Lancshire. Liverpool is in Merseyside. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.88.23 (talk) 11:27, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
Dear volunteer,
you are right that my submission is to some extent a copy of the emeriti homepage of the university of Zurich.
Facts are: 1) I am also the author of the Hanns Fischer article on the emeriti homepage. 2) The University of Zurich does not claim a copyright. 3) I have submitted a revised version of the Hanns Fischer article on Febr. 9, 2018, to Wikipedia which then was considered a viable draft and moved to the "location for AFC drafts" (s. revision history). Then I lost track of it. 4) In the revised version I also included the copyrights received for partly reproduced sections for the scientific literature (s References).
Given this situation, what do I have to do exactly, to satisfy the copyright rules of Wikipedia?
Thanks for you help and regards Tony Kaiser — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tony Kaiser (talk • contribs) 12:26, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
(c) Universität Zürich, but even if there weren't, by default websites are copyrighted. I see no indication (in the "about" pages or wherever else) that this part of the UZH website is available under a Wikipedia-compatible license. So your point #2 looks outright wrong to me. If you can convince the UZH to release the content of that page under a free license (and while you're at it, ask for other pages, so that we can use them), please do, but otherwise you will need to paraphrase. That you were the original author is most likely irrelevant; you very likely gave up the copyright to the page you wrote to UZH.
[must be] written in an acceptable tone, meaning from a neutral point of view. For instance, sentences such as
he was a pioneer in...or
With dedication and many personal hours in the laboratory...are puffery (see that latest link for the "Bob Dylan" example) and do not belong in Wikipedia. TigraanClick here to contact me 13:40, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
Hi all,
I found a picture the other day on Wikipedia and I would like to use set picture for non-commercial use. How can I go on by using this picture without violating copyright laws?
Thank you!
Sincerely yours,

In response to this edit by , I had written this
but unsure if this approach is the right one so didn't post it. Also unsure if their comments should be completely struck from the record?? Rayman60 (talk) 13:09, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

How can this be addressed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Roger Conner75 (talk • contribs) 19:16, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
Trying to remove from the article Apache OpenOffice a commentary, as far as I know, not neutral, I have found myself in a previous dispute that I did not initiate. Several users have reversed my edits. Like added problem, I'm not a native English speaker. What can I do about it? --Entalpia2 (talk) 23:33, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
