a long blockquote (212 words) is not a copyright vio. but by all means edit the article if you truly feel that way. Pohick2 (talk) 18:05, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

form over substance - a person can agree that their copyrighted work can be used under a fair use rubric. we disagree that the 200 word blockquote was brief, or not. the word count is not definitive, the percentage of the total is low. copyright is a gray area not subject to bot calculations. there must be harm done, by quoting and linking, the value of the original is if anything enhanced.
