User talk:Coren
A combination of real-life work cemergencies, family health issues, and major house renovations have conspired to keep me mostly incommunicado for the past couple of months.
Those issues have finally sorted themselves out for the most part and I am now able to spend some time again on Wikipedia. Yeay!
I'll be using the next couple of days to catch up and clean up. Please accept my sincerest apologies if I have left you hanging due to my unplanned and unannounced departure, I will do my best to make amends shortly. — Coren (talk) 20:07, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

- If you have copied text to which you own the copyright: Please read the guide to donating your own copyrighted material to Wikipedia. Note that, in addition to copyright requirements, the article must still comply with notability guidelines, advertising prohibition and avoid conflicts of interest.
- If you have been given permission to reuse someone else's text: Please read the guide to requesting and formalizing permission to use copyrighted works on Wikipedia. As above, the article must still comply with notability guidelines, advertising prohibition and avoid conflicts of interest.
- If you were attempting to rename an article or create a disambiguation page: Compliance with the GFDL requires that the article be actually moved rather than copied with cut-and-paste to preserve editing history. Please tag the new copy with
{{db-move}}
and an administrator will be able to assist you.
- If the original source was itself a copy of Wikipedia text: Reusing the text is probably okay, but make sure you link back to the original article to comply with the GFDL. If the site CSBot found is a Wikipedia mirror, you may want to notify me so I can add it to the list for the future.
- If the original source is in the public domain: Reusing the text is okay, but you almost certainly want to attribute it with an appropriate template (such as
{{DANFS}}
or{{1911}}
); this will cause CSBot to leave the article alone.- If you did attribute it with an appropriate template, but it was still flagged as a copyvio, then it's probable the bot does not know the template you have used. You might want to tell me on this page so I can add it to the list.
Otherwise, remember that text found on other web pages is copyrighted by default. Unless there is an explicit permission on the page (or site) allowing reuse without conditions (or under the GFDL) you can not use that text in a Wikipedia article!
Thank you!

Underground Railroad (band)
Hi,
I have been notified by a bot that there may be copyright problems regarding the bands wikipedia - as its a press release (which is posted on all internet sites). I currently work for One Little Indian - the bands record label and therefore am authorised to use this material.
