I'm sorry, but acting carefully on advice from actual lawyers is not legal paranoia.
A legal team who was split on the issue. I suggested a very simple way to avoid much of the potential issues; combine the lists. Thus my bullocks statement in regards to deletion instead of merger. Deletion followed by nothing (what was done) is legal paranoia, while merger is a prudent compromise.
Beyond that, of course I agree with the current concept of creating a generally researched list from many sources of topics which we don't have but should.
My point all along (IIRC, the first comment on the Encarta list talk page was from me raising the merger issue).
