|Your message
Thanks for your message on the talkpage of the article. You (and or his widow) really need to follow the instructions above to give official permission for this copyrighted text to be posted here. I am sure you understand that on the internet nobody can be sure who exactly anybody is, so it needs to be done in this official way so that all the legal hurdles can be appropriately cleared. Even if the article gets deleted in the short term you can always recreate when the permission is sorted out. Rewriting the article in your own words is another possibility and is often the easiest solution, frankly. Good luck and I hope this helps. --Slp1 03:06, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
