Talk:We Shall Keep the Faith

I don't see how the website cited holds copyright on this material. The copyright at the bottom of the page is unlikely to refer to the poem itself.

That website also seems to claim copyright to the original In Flanders Fields poem, which seems highly unlikely given that it was written by a Canadian in 1915 while stationed in France, and the referenced website is in the UK.

The poem is also to be found at the following URIs (some of which also appear to claim copyright):

This poem (and its author) are both recognized as having introduced the idea of the poppy being used as a symbol of remembrance. This is in no way an inappropriate use of the material.

The original author, Moina Michael, wrote the poem in 1915, and passed away in 1944. She has been dead for over 65 years.

I cannot see how publishing this poem on Wikipedia in any way violates the copyright of the website that the 'bot claims it does.
