Handling non-free content
Hi. I appreciate your contribution to Talk:Peripheral nerve reconstruction/Temp, but unfortunately, rather than revising the content so that it was not a copyright problem, you seem to have restored the copyrighted content verbatim. For example, User:Plastische erasmusmc had written:

The source says at page 302:

This is not an acceptable method of handling previously published content on Wikipedia. You can only import previously published text if you can verify that it is public domain or compatibly licensed with our license. Even if it is, you must acknowledge that you are copying content to comply with our guidelines on plagiarism. If it is not public domain or compatibly licensed, you may use brief excerpts of text if these are clearly marked as quotations and used for good reasons such as those set out at non-free content policy and guideline. Otherwise, you may use the information, but not the creative structure of the original, which includes language but also may include selection and organization of material. (See Close paraphrasing.)

Wikipedia takes copyright concerns very seriously. To ensure that our project remains compliant with U.S. law, we are required to block the access of repeated infringers. Please be sure you understand our approach to copyright (see Copy-paste, Copyright, FAQ/Copyright).

Beyond your addition, the temporary remained unusable, as it had not been rewritten from scratch but retained many of the creative elements of its sources. The article and the proposed rewrite have been deleted. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:30, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
