Copyright problem: Draft:Amoz Gibson
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Draft:Amoz Gibson, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images from either web sites or printed works. This article appears to contain work copied from http://bahai-library.com/?file=memoriam_bw_18, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:
