Copyright problem: Mathematical Biosciences Institute
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Mathematical Biosciences Institute, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to be a copy from http://www.mbi.osu.edu/about/mission.html http://www.ibgp.org/over.htm, and therefore a copyright violation. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. 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 allowance license, then you should do one of the following:


 * If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details at Talk:Mathematical Biosciences Institute and send an email with confirmation of permission 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 GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL), versions 1.3 or later and Creative Commons Share Alike (CC-BY-SA), versions 3.0 or later, under CC-BY-SA, versions 3.0 or later, or that the material is released into the public domain'' leave a note at Talk:Mathematical Biosciences Institute 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 CC-BY-SA, and note that you have done so on Talk:Mathematical Biosciences Institute. See Donating copyrighted materials for instructions.

It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at [ this temporary page]. Leave a note at Talk:Mathematical Biosciences Institute saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved. Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:19, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * In addition to the "form letter" notice above, I just wanted to add that I'm afraid that we have to write content in our own language except in those limited circumstances permitted by Wikipedia's non-free content policy & guideline. Placement of text here indicates that you are free to license it liberally for reuse and modification, including commercially. Not only is the mission section duplicated at the official site, but the Programs sections is extensively the same as that at . If you can verify permission to use the text by one of the processes in the "form letter", great! Otherwise, this will either need to be removed or rewritten in the temporary space provided. If you have questions about this, please let me know at my talk page. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:19, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
