Untitled[edit]

Kindly note that I am the original copyright holder of the information available on these pages. Information for reprint regarding Dr. G. Thanikaimoni was given by me to UNESCO, CAP & AASP.

I have found the message posted on the COPYRIGHT VIOLATION section to say the following : Thanikaimoni from [375] (http://www.scirpus.ca/cap/people/person19.htm) and [376] (http://www.palynology.org/history/thanikaimoni.html). The article first contains a copy of part of the first page, then a copy of the second page, and then some text I couldn't find on Google. It fairly cites the sources but I don't think that justifies verbatim copies. — JIP | Talk 10:57, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Please note that I am a bit surprised because :

1. I have clearly stated that this article is 'compiled' from existing articles 2. I have in good faith provided not only the SOURCES but also the URLs 3. I have mentioned that the original 3 authors for certain parts of the texts 4. The article does not aim to promote myself 5. The person on whom the article is written is an internationally reknowned scientist in the field of Palynology (winner of the 'Fyson Prize')

IF you still think that there is a reason for 'black balling' this content, then atleast tell me what I can do (recommendations, advise, commments, etc.,) so that the content can be 'okayed'.

Thanks ... and hope that you will review your position in a favourable light.

When I originally made the copyright violation notice, I did not know you were the original copyright holder. If this is indeed the case, then please feel free to retrieve your old content (through the "History" link) and add it back in place of my copyvio notice. — JIP | Talk 12:33, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

The copyvio notice was reverted by User:Quadell as per clarification from the original author. — JIP | Talk 13:19, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
