Hi,

The page on the Berkshire School's website is explicitly marked as copyright and cannot be considered in the public domain. GabrielF (talk) 15:34, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Once the content of an article is replaced by the potential copyright violation template, the link to the duplication detector's findings doesn't work. This is an unfortunate problem with our system of handling potential copyright issues. However, if you'd like to see how the text on the Berkshire School website matches up to the text from the wikipedia article, look at this link. As to what steps you should take: Since you indicated that you represent the school, my advice would be not to edit the article directly. We generally do not allow organizations to edit their own articles because of the inherent conflict of interest. I would recommend reading our FAQ for organizations and our conflict of interest policy for more information. My advice would be to let the copyright cleanup process take its course and to post your suggestions for improvements at Talk:Berkshire School. Generally it takes about a week for one of our editors who specializes in copyright issues to take a look at a flagged article. I doubt that they'll delete the article (if it had looked like most or all of the text in the article had been copied I would have used a different process to request that it be immediately deleted and they will use the same standards) but they'll probably excise material that matches your school's website too closely. I would expect that any editors looking to cleanup copyright issues will take any suggestions that you make on the talk page into account. GabrielF (talk) 16:22, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Incidentally, we've been working to address some of the issues with the duplication detector report and the duplication detector link on the Berkshire School article should now show you exactly what the problem is. GabrielF (talk) 21:25, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
