This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of LILAC conference, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.lilacconference.com/dw/2008. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 11:57, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
Re: Deletion of LILAC Conference article
[edit]The article was not deleted because it was unattributed, but because it was a clear copyright violation. Over 75% of the text came directly from the LILAC site and there was no form of analysis or commentary as required to use a quotation via fair use.
As you claim to be in a position to grant permission to use the text, the procedure for submitting permission to use copyrighted text under a GFDL license is available at Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission#When permission is confirmed. --Allen3 talk 11:03, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
