Remaining true to veriafible source
How would one write a description of the house in a coherent chronological way using info from verifiable source, remaining true to its essence, if facts such as dates, residents, location, architecutural details be included (as they can and should be) without using language similar to the source? The synopsis, w/o synthesis, can stand as written. If not, then how can the material be written and be veriafiable? An example of this short paragragh would be greatly appreciated to demonstrate how that is possible. Thanks Djflem (talk) 21:18, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi. Please ask for clarification before restoring content when material is removed for copyright concerns. Wikipedia takes copyright matters quite seriously, and both a copyright clerk and another administrator have weighed in at Copyright problems/2011 July 7 with opinions that this constitutes a concern. I agree.


 * While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. For an example of close paraphrasing, consider the following:


 * The article says:


 * This passage follows closely both in language and organization of the original.


 * Wikipedia's copyright policies require that the content we take from non-free, aside from brief and clearly marked quotations, be rewritten from scratch. So that we can be sure it does not constitute a derivative work, this article should be rewritten in the temporary space that is now linked from the article's front. The essay Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".


 * There are a number of ways you could rewrite this text without following the language and organization of the original. For instance, you might start:


 * Beyond taking information and restructuring it into a new creation, it is also very helpful to incorporate additional sources. While this often does require additional work on our part, it allows us to ensure that we are doing more than creating a derivative of our source.


 * Alternatively, if the material can be verified to be public domain or permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution.


 * Please feel free to let me know at my talk page if you have any questions about this. The article will be revisited in about a week to see if it has been rewritten or if additional steps are needed. Thank you. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 22:48, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
