[Wikipedia-l] cut/paste

[rose.parks at att.net]

Members,

     I have a number of pages that were 
cut/pastes ...but from documents written by myself. This 
covers Japanese Language, Linear algebra, Mathematical 
Groups, parts of the ADA (the rest of public law) and 
more.
These are subjects that I would not be happy just 
tossing up. I don't think anyone should remove a page, 
until they can show it was a cut/paste from someone 
else, not free domain. Further this is an 
administrators' job, it would seem. I think members 
should report such problems to an administrator.

     I find this whole post insulting, whether you are 
referring to my work or not.

            As Ever,

              Ruth Ifcher
