UK National Ecosystem Assessment
I recently deleted UK National Ecosystem Assessment which you created, and I noticed you had some questions on the talk page that I thought I'd briefly respond to. Using copyrighted material on Wikipedia is generally not acceptable, see WP:COPYVIO for more information. However, in rare cases, if you can prove that you own the copyright of the material, you can use it. See WP:DCM for more info on that. Finally, writing a Wikipedia article on a topic with which you are closely affiliated is also highly discouraged. Wikipedia is intended to be a neutral encyclopedia, and it is very difficult to write neutrally about a subject you're related to. See WP:COI for more info on that.

However, after reading and considering the above links, please feel free to re-create the article without copyrighted material, or to try the process of donating copyrighted material to Wikipedia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on my talk page. Thanks. ‑Scottywong | babble _ 19:07, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
