I've seen your note which appears to establish that the material can be used. When you recreate, move the message to the article discussion page and state explicitly that it is released under th GFDL licence.

The article isn't necessarily out of the woods. You need to provide independent verifiable sources that it meets the notability guidelines, and make sure that the tone is neutral and does not contain POV or unverifiable sentences like the last one. Jimfbleak 12:40, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
