You will note that there are issues other than copyright. Assuming good faith and accepting that you are the copyright holder, that the article is not nonsense, and that it gives sources, the article is still liable to deletion. Woohookitty deleted it as original research, which it clearly appears to be. It is most certainly not written in a neutral way, since its whole aim is to promote a particular controversial viewpoint, and the style is unencyclopaedic, reading like the newspaper article it is. Then is no chance of the article surving as a text dump, and I find it difficult to see how the OR and NPOV issues can be addressed. jimfbleak 17:08, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: Deletion Of "Gettin' A Kick Out Of Truth"... What The Warren Commission Missed
Dear Fang Aili, Though my article may read as if it were a newspaper article, the "Facts" represented in it, though a bit controversial and thought provoking, do fall into the "Common Sense" catagory. And come from volumes of work regarded as "Public Domain"... The Warren Commission. Anyway, it is sincerely appreciated that you took time out to respond to my talk box and my hope shall remain that you will consider re-instating "Gettin' A Kick Out Of Truth"... What The Warren Commission Missed. And thank you for the years of both enjoyment and information that Wikipedia has provided my family and I. With sincerest of regards, Mike Regan

With respect, Mr. Regan: please do not repost that content. It has been deleted before as inappropriate, and two-and-a-half years later it is still inappropriate.
