- Hi Diannaa,
- I cited the JANNAF website for the first paragraph (which is copied text). The JANNAF website does say copyright Johns Hopkins University. But the text itself is copied from the JANNAF charter which is a work of the US Government. I changed the reference to the JANNAF charter and put in the free-content attribution.
- Does that pass muster?

- I don't think so, because it's hosted at the JANNAF website, not a US Government website. I can't find a copy anywhere else. So unless you can prove that it's a US govt document, it has to stay out. — Diannaa (talk) 13:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- OK I can't find the charter anywhere else so I'll dig in and summarize.
- Thanks!

- Thanks Nskeim. Sorry about the extra work. — Diannaa (talk) 14:40, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- No worries! It's already a better article.
- Thanks!

- @Nskeim sorry, I saw this in the article draft feed and saw the old copyright alert, so marked it for deletion again. But after realising it was the old alert, I have now undone my deletion request. Qcne (talk) 17:50, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
