Issues In Re Quotation
This quotation is considered fair use. Specific permission of the blog owner has been requested. This information was not copied from the Web site the bot identified; that, too, is a copy. deisenbe (talk) 15:14, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Hello, I assume the original source is http://queerestlibraryever.blogspot.com/2013/01/archives-david-lourea-and-bisexual.html ? Unfortunately, because we can't independently verify that permission has been given, that material as it stands now is still a copyright violation. Because of our license, we need some more things done before before we can accept this text... we must ensure that source material is freely licensed. While the owners may permit this content to be used here, I imagine they don't want it changed, sold, or any of the other possibilities that our free license allows.
 * So in order to use this text on Wikipedia, the source web page must release its content under the same license (which allows all those same uses I mentioned), or they can release just this text under that license (again with the same understanding of how it may be used by anyone). For instructions on how to do that, see This Link. That will entail some emailing to prove the owners of that text are in fact authorizing its release, and confirming they understand what that entails.
 * In the meantime, the copyrighted text will need to be re-written or removed, but can easily be re-inserted once permission is processed. Thanks for your contributions, Crow  Caw  17:17, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I have sent the following today to the San Francisco Public Library:


 * I have written to Queerest.Library.Ever without receiving a response. I am requesting permission to quote the following: http://queerestlibraryever.blogspot.com/2013/01/archives-david-lourea-and-bisexual.html in the article on David Lourea in Wikipedia. This Wikipedia article describes the permission needed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Donating_copyrighted_materials
 * Thank you for your assistance. deisenbe (talk) 20:30, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Note that they will have to follow those procedures themselves, they cannot just reply with an ok. Alternately, if they don't want to go through all that, but still want to release the text, they can just add this to the end of the article/page in question, with all links intact:


 * The text of this website [or page, if they are specifically releasing one section] is available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts).


 * They would need to understand that by so doing, they are allowing anyone, not just Wikipedia, to then use that content for any reason or purpose, provided they say who the source was. A lot of sources don't realize the extent of a free release... Thanks for the help! Crow  Caw  20:36, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
