Copyright status of C-ball
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:C-ball 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:C-ball 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:C-ball 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.

License tagging for Image:Ncball.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Ncball.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 19:08, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Copied from C-Ball talk page
I am Mike Salem, co-creater of the game of c-ball, who is creating this wiki page to describe the game. There will be significant overlap between the wiki page and the pages I have created for the Caltech C-ball chapter (however, whereas much information on the latter pages is fictional, the wiki page will be factual).


 * Do you own the copyright to the content on ? If so, and you want it to be used in Wikipedia, you must license it under the terms of the GFDL, and make a statement stating so. If not, you are free to rewrite the article in your own words --Darksun 19:17, 7 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I have written "copyright" at the bottom of however I have never formally copyrighted the material.  I am not really interested in copyright protection.  If it's not difficult I'll follow the licensing directions that you link to.  Otherwise, I'll remove the "copyright" language from my site.

I also have to bring up the concepts of notability and verifiability here. I can't find any third party sources mentioning C-ball. Sasquatch t|c 20:54, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:MarkWise.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:MarkWise.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Musamies (talk) 03:26, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
