- The content has been restored as the charge copyright violation is simply not true - there was possible paraphrasing as even admitted by this editor. [1]. Paraphrasing cited content with citation is not against any WP rule, guideline or policy. Wikipedia:Copyright violations links to WP:PARAPHRASE detailing paraphrasing appropriateness. Specifically WP:PARAPHRASE's WP:LIMITED states:
- "Close paraphrasing is also permitted when there are only a limited number of ways to say the same thing. This may be the case when there is no reasonable way to avoid using titles and technical term, and may also be the case with simple statements of fact."
- The sentence that was removed was:
- "The building of the rail line involved the construction of 75 kilometres (47 mi) of new rail line, 124 bridges over canals, drains and irrigation water courses, 36 level crossings, 32 limited height subways and 4 bridges over roads."
- The Times of India source states:
- "124 bridges have been constructed on various canals, drains and small irrigation water courses, 36 level crossings, 32 limited height subways and 4 road over bridges (ROBs) have been constructed."[2]
- Not only does the sentence removed barely, if at all, qualifies as "paraphrasing" the Times of India source, as per WP:LIMITED, there are a very limited number of ways to convey these statement of facts.
- (Sorry for the Wikilawyering, but there was plenty of of it used in this block threat.) --Oakshade (talk) 00:00, 2 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
