User talk:Hadapsar/Dada Gujar

Find below a few sample talks which I happened to have when I had actually created a page on Wiki. Please guide me as to what is wrong with the new version of the page which I have put in user mode now. Thanks.

I had created a page on Dada Gujar which was deleted stating G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement of http://revegujars.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=35 I actually wanted to let you know that the article on the forum is a citation of award received by Dr. Dada Gujar and has no copyrights. I am his grandson and can vouch for the same. Please give this a second look and let me know in case you need any clarifications. Please undo the deletion of the article.

Feel free to recreate it, making clear that the citation material is quoted. While you may think that the award citation has no copyright, under U.S. law even the wording of such an award may be copyrighted. Make sure you quote from it appropriately, with references, while making most of the article unique, and things should be fine. Cheers, Jclemens (talk) 00:05, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I had a talk with editor Jclemens yesterday regarding the content of the page. I informed him that this content was a citation of the award which Dr. Gujar had got. I am his grandson and can vouch that it does not infringe on any copyrights. He said I could go ahead and put the article back again with some changes. I have rephrased the original article and added some more information which was not present earlier. As far as advertising goes, I do not see how writing an article on a man who is no more with us qualifies as advertising ? The article just states facts and the awards he has won.

I'm sorry, but sentences like "He was a rare example of how a modest medical man with his untiring efforts, sincerity of purpose and above all strong will power can become true missionary of integral rural development and serve the people." really have no place in an encyclopedia. I would encourage you to read our info on writing from a neutral point of view and our tips on writing your first article. TNXMan 15:06, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
