Copyright concerns[edit]
A few specific passages to note:
- "The community was founded...firm of Hallettsville." In this entire sentence, though slightly rearranged, only one word is changed from source 1.
- "It was possibly named Castine...records of Karnes County." This is copied with only two words altered from source 2.
- "In 1898, Spanish-American War hero...." is derivative of source 1.
- "The firm Mitchell, Mitchell...of Hobson" is copied from source 2, with one word changed.
- "On March 15, 1899, the United States Postal Service accepted the name Hobson, and a post office was opened in the R.J. Polasek Mercantile Store." deviates from source 2 by only one word.
- "Hobson was composed...Polish descent" is copied from source 1.
The rest of the section follows very closely on source 1. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 21:38, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- I have removed all content except for the first two sentences and the history section which is tagged and can't be removed. I'm tired of the accusations being made. --Acntx (talk) 00:05, 7 November 2009 (UTC).
