Copyright Problems[edit]

This article is a nice addition, however, User:Joshnadler has copied the content from other sources completely. I was kind of surprised, since the source writing is actually pretty poor. To User:Joshnadler:

Would you mind rewriting those sections that you copied? It will both remove all plagiarism from the article, and make it sound a lot better. Here is where I found the infringed material. Your history section is completely from here and your About section is completely from here. Please fix these as soon as you can, as the article is in a state right now that it is eligible for immediate deletion because of copyright infringements.

Thank you for your concern. I work in the department that is also responsible for the U of Maryland ABG website. That is why the information is copied verbatim. Joshnadler (talk) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshnadler (talkcontribs) 15:15, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Will these quotes suffice for the time being? [User:Joshnadler|Joshnadler]] (talk) 15:38, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
