Talk pages

Just so you know, new comments go on the bottom of talk pages, not the top. This is to preserve the order they were brought up in and is important when it comes time to archive the page. Thanks for all the work you are doing. HighInBC 16:42, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Copyright violations

I have removed this post of yours due to copyright violations. This[1] seems to be from here[2].

It is fine to post links to relevent information on the talk page but copying large blocks of text constitues a copyright violation. Wikipedia needs to maintain it's content in such a manner that it is free to be copied by others, copyrighted material is incompatable with this goal. Don't worry too much about it I know you are still learning here. HighInBC 16:52, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I wrote that page. I am Clifford Schaffer. I wrote everything except the quote from Anslinger which comes from the transcripts of the congressional hearings for the marijuana tax act -- which is a US Government document and, therefore, in the public domain. I am aware of the copyright issues and would not violate them. There is no violation here because it is my own work.

Please restore the post and feel free to use any or all of it in editing the Wikipedia page.

Thanks.

Ah, I see. Ok. I have returned it. HighInBC 17:03, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
