Copied from, a personal genealogy site. The Website doesn't appear to be a commercial venture and anyway genealogy sites purposefully exist to spread information so copyright may not be as much of an issue. At any rate, it's still a genealogy-related article that may not be appropriate for Wikipedia, and editors with a better working knowledge of WP's copyright policies may also wish to evaluate. &middot; Katefan0(scribble) 17:15, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. Historic building with significant connections to notable author. Notable building but copyvio of source nominated by Katefan0. Copyright status needs to be cleaned up. Capitalistroadster 00:22, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I am the author of this article, and while I did consult the above web page, the amount of material I used is miniscule. In fact the duplicate material on that page IS credited to me and was extracted from a private email of mine to the author of that page, so how is this a copyright issue? I have just asked that author to remove the same from his web site. -- jgk168421 29 October 2005 (AEST)
 * Keep building with long and notable history, but clean up. -- DS1953 talk 21:09, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep The material on the aforementioned web page has been removed as IT was in breach of MY copyright as the author. A limited amount has been retained, with my permission, where it refers directly to the contents of that page's family tree. I consider the aforementioned copyright problem to be now resolved. -- jgk168421 13:13, 2 November 2005 (AEST)
 * Note Information is not copyrightable. So if someone has data on a webpage about such-and-such place being built in 1386 or that Harry Schmoodle lived there, that information is not protectable. Text is copyrightable, but the underlying information and facts are not. 207.69.137.36 21:20, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
