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.

Copyright status update edit

Hello, I recapped the method to verify permission at Talk:Teacher Plus (Magazine). That being said, looking at your talk page, I notice that there was the same issue with the same article under another title, and you have claimed to have sent permission. Please note that you are not to restore copyrighted content until it has been acknowledged that the permission is valid, persisting in doing so will lead to a removal of your editing privileges. In the meantime, I have replaced the article's text with a standard boilerplate template. This will leave you 7 days to provide the permission through the means described at WP:PERMISSION. Please do not remove the template yourself but wait until an administrator can verify permission, he will remove it himself. Alternatively, you may also elect to rewrite the article from scratch, in your own words. If you wish to pursue that route, a temporary subpage is conveniently linked through from the boilerplate message currently replacing the article. MLauba (talk) 16:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
