I did not retrieve any information from that specific website, also, one does not simply copyright words. --Luis Santos24 (talk) 21:26, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry but you are mistaken. Words can indeed be copyright. Please see WP:copyright for more information. I have removed the History section, as it was nearly identical to material found at http://www.hazegray.org/danfs/amphib/lst201.htm. Please do not re-add it unless you thoroughly re-write it in your own words. -- Diannaa (talk) 14:33, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
