I have been removing text to talk, generally concerning the Ottoman
Empire (articles on the Ottoman Triumvirate, Suleiman the Magnificent,
Ormus, etc.). These seem to be plagiarized from
WWW.nationmaster.com,
which
holds copyright on all aspects of
this site (including but not limited to content and layout), with the
exception of the text from articles taken from
Wikipedia and where copyrights are
held by our sources
Before I remove any more text to talk,
I'd appreciate it if someone can check this for me. As far as I can
tell, the text in the nationmaster encyclopedia is not attributed to
Wikipedia, so I have assumed that one of our contributors has been
copying from them, rather than vice versa. But I'd appreciate it if
someone else can look into this further before I make any more
changes,
Thanks,
Steve
