Copyright status of Bipartisan Security Group
Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
 * If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
 * If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Bipartisan Security Group with a link to where we can find that note;
 * If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:Bipartisan Security Group with a link to the details.

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:Bipartisan Security Group saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

 * Just because you work for this group doesn't mean it isn't copyright infringement; the only difference is that your employer holds the copyright. It's a legal matter. Furthermore, the fact that you are writing about your own firm is a violation of conflict of interest guidelines, and in this case would also qualify the article for speedy deletion as blatant advertising. Either way, the article should be speedy deleted. Realkyhick 15:04, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
I see that you are posting new articles about your employer and various units under its umbrealla. I must warn you that you are violating Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines, and it will make it more likely that the articles will be deleted altogether. You really should let someone who is not connected with GSI determine its notability and write articles which do not have an inherent point of view. Realkyhick 15:35, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
