Talk:Teacher Earl

Copyright
As the one week required has passed since the copyright violation was put in place, and as the user who put it in place did not follow up on it, it is now being taken down, per the rules. If there is any complaints, please discuss them here. JQF 20:31, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I have recently found that the info in question is originally from the "My Name Is Earl" section of NBC.com, thus is promotional matterial and thus usable free of copyright. JQF 20:42, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Actually, that's not entirely correct. Just because it's promotional does not mean it's free of copyright (it's only copyright-free if it's explicitly stated). Additionally, there is a huge backlog at WP:CP and I'd just gotten around to clearing this one. The article was listed on Copyright problems/2006 January 15. What you should have done was rewrite the material so as to avoid any copyright infringement and then notified us on the log page that you'd done so.  howch e  ng   {chat} 19:29, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
