Articles

To begin with, Czech law is irrevelant because Wikimedia's servers are hosted in Florida. That means that we have to abide by US federal laws, as well as Florida state laws. The US Copyright Office says that a translation is a derivative work. Derivative works must be authorised by the copyright holder of the original work. So in summary, my translation is a copyvio. It is partially my fault, I should have checked if the cs article is original before I began my translation. It was simply something I did not consider at the time. I intend to rewrite the article from scratch (except the infobox which is my work), but I might take some time as I'm busy with schoolwork. Puchiko (Talk-email) 20:46, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

 * This was submitted as a translation request and was translated by another user. Even if the original was a copyvio, this translation is new. It's not a copyright violation; requesting full restoration ASAP. Chubbles (talk) 12:31, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Translator is not the author. And the translated text is pretty the same as czech copyvio. By czech author law is translation still copyuvio, if the source copyvio is. See § 2 (4) (in czech)--PaD cs:&#9993; 13:10, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Note: the text in question was removed from the Herbert Hoover article on Nov. 20 by CoderGnome. I find that the text was originally added by IP207.245.185.134 on March 30, 2006. The unattributed source is Prologue Magazine. As a publication of NARA produced by USGov employees, it is probably PD. Therefore, this would appear to be a plagerization instance, not a CV.
