License Information and Copyright

Well, i couldn't find the type of the copyright license of the book the Perilous Frontier if it is valid to use it on wikipedia. But in the book there are things like this: Copyright © Thomas J. Barfield 1989

'All rights reserved. Except for the quotation of short passages for the purposes of criticism and review, no part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted, in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior permission of the publisher.'

I basically used the text written in the book Perilous Frontier because it is much more detailed and well-used if we compare it to the other sources. But i didn't copy-paste it directly, i've changed a few words, sentences and mixed it with other sources to make a good article. I can rewrite the article if there is a problem. @HistoryofIran Hunnic Enjoyer (talk) 19:10, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

@HistoryofIran I am waiting for your response, what should i do? Please respond as soon as possible Hunnic Enjoyer (talk) 19:40, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

I didn't even edit after your first comment, why ping me again and only after 40 minutes a that..? Anyways, I'm not sure, this is the first time I've done it like this. As for the rest of your comment, you should really also do the research yourself, there's literally two links named Wikipedia:Copyright problems and Wikipedia's content license in the article, I would advise you to read those for starters, as well as WP:PARAPHRASE.

I've checked them, can you please tell me why did you do this thing, i literally spent 3 hours working on this article. I think there is nothing worng with it since I used WP:RS. And i didn't exactly copy-pasted the text from the book Perilous Frontier, i've changed a lot of words, sentences and added things from other sources.
