Talk:Saul Hertz
I thought you might be able to shed some light on a possible copyright violation at Saul Hertz. -- Nuujinn (talk) 11:43, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Saul Hertz
(I'm copying this over to your talk page as well, since it seems you may not log in often, and my page archives regularly. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 23:33, 18 September 2010 (UTC))

I'm trying to track down the possible copyright violation for the Saul Hertz page from August 2010. I'd like to re-post the article, but with the appropriate changes. Jabrody24 (talk) 21:08, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi. I see that you were not given the requisite notice. I'm sorry about; the contributor who tagged the article should have copied it to your talk page, and I should have noticed that he or she did not. The problem with the article is that from its inception it followed too closely on . For one brief example, the article as you created it said:


 * That website says:


 * Other content, too, followed too closely.


 * While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. So that our articles do not constitute derivative works (which require permission from the copyright holders), we must write them completely in our own language, except that we may use brief quotations if they are clearly marked and used in accordance with non-free content guidelines. The essay Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".


 * Alternatively, if the material can be verified to be public domain or permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution.


 * Please let me know if you have questions about this. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 23:33, 18 September 2010 (UTC)


 * I have discovered some additional copying from other sources, and rewritten the pertinent parts. One of the key indications of writing by copy-and-paste is a article that contains sections that repeat the same facts, in slightly different words. I combined and rewrote them. Another is the copying of errors. The letter from cCompton does not talk about the "structure" of radioactive iodine, but about the nature and decay products of the major radioactive isotope. I fixed this also.  There remain some problems: the articles says he arrived as chief of the Harvard Lab in 1931. John Bruton Stanbury's book, A constant ferment: a history of the Thyroid Clinic and Laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital, 1913-1990 says on p.44, "Saul Hertz had arrived in 1931 as a graduate assistant in medicine attached to the thyroid clinic. "  The article said he wrote 230 scientific papers. A count of the ones on his web site yielded over 50. Additionally, I did some other fixes, but I do not think I have finished yet.
