Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Rosa Guy article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing!

The only cut and paste I performed was from a google cache of a now defunct page, the best bio on the web. Even it was tweked up by me.

Welcome
