Copyright issue edit

The resolution text is not copyed from http://un-report.blogspot.no/ as the CorenSearchBot suggested, but from http://www.un.org/press/en/2015/sc12001.doc.htm

According to the "Terms and Conditions of Use of United Nations Web Sites", "The United Nations grants permission to Users to visit the Site and to download and copy the information, documents and materials (collectively, “Materials”) from the Site for the User’s personal, non-commercial use, without any right to resell or redistribute them or to compile or create derivative works therefrom, subject to the terms and conditions outlined below, and also subject to more specific restrictions that may apply to specific Material within this Site." This is for non-commercial use, but I am not sure if the resolution text can be freely copied. If not, please delete it. Erlbaeko (talk) 19:53, 8 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia treats content available only for non-commercial use as non-free, but per [1] I believe the text of UN Security Council resolutions are in the public domain anyway. You may want to consider adding the text of the resolution to Wikisource rather than here. Hut 8.5 20:23, 8 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
Ok, I will look into Wikisource. Thanks. Erlbaeko (talk) 20:27, 8 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
