Speedy deletion of Harrington family history
A tag has been placed on Harrington family history requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ~Matticus UC 09:49, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Copyright permissions
Hi. I am placing this on your personal talk page as well as the talk page of the article, which has been blanked with a copyright advisement until permission is confirmed. If you have permission from the author, you need not only to leave a message at the talk page explaining the details, but also to send an e-mail with the permission to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Requesting copyright permission for instructions. The author of this information must be informed that he is releasing the material under GFDL, which means that his text can be used freely by anyone, commercially or otherwise, and that he will not be entitled to royalties or compensation from income anyone may make on this material. (Legally, anyone who chooses to use this material (which they may alter as they see fit) is required to incorporate the GFDL license text, so its commercial redistribution is unlikely, but the author needs to understand that it is possible.) There is a standard declaration of consent included at the "Requesting copyright permission" page which you can use. Alternatively, the author can put on his original website a statement that re-use is permitted under the GNU Free Documentation License or released into the public domain. If he does that, you can note it at the article talk page. Thanks. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:34, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
