Copyright issues[edit]

Helping to resolve copyright issue about these few sources

http://www.allkpop.com/article/2014/05/exos-overdose-comeback-confirmed-for-the-7th is indeed unreliable and may be biased as it was written from a third-party view as it is not an official news website. The link has since been replaced to http://news1.kr/articles/?1637105 and is much more reliable as it is from an official Korean news website, News1.

Another source, Soompi, is also unreliable and may be biased as it was written from a third-party view as it is also not an official news website. The link has also since been replaced to http://www.sportsseoul.com/?c=v&m=n&i=69194 and is also much more reliable as it is from an official Korean news website, Sports Seoul.

Hello, Irene Tai. I really appreciate your interest in helping with these problems, but copyright has nothing to do with how reliable the source is. Copyright is a legal issue of taking too much material from your sources, whatever they are. Except for brief and clearly marked quotations, Wikipedia can only take material from public domain or compatibly licensed sources. That's different from information - people are welcome to use information from any reliable source, but it almost always must be put into original words and structure for publication here. Wikipedia:Copypaste gives some basic information about our copyright policies. The only way to address copyright issues is to either secure a usable license from the original source or to rewrite the content from scratch. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 10:41, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

HELP IS NEEDED![edit]

I restored the page and added some info. I'm sure the album sales and charts are in need of being updated, anyone is more than welcome to update it!!! The article paragraphs also need expansion. Good luck. --Idealtype 20:21, 16 June 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Idealtype (talkcontribs)
