I have been removing text to talk, generally concerning the Ottoman Empire
(articles on the Ottoman Triumvirate, Suleiman the Magnificent, Ormus,
etc.). These seem to be plagiarized from
WWW.nationmaster.com, which
holds copyright on all aspects of this site (including
but not limited to
content and layout), with the exception of the text from articles taken
from Wikipedia and where copyrights are held by our sources
Before I remove any more
text to talk, I'd appreciate it if someone can
check this for me. As far as I can tell, the text in the nationmaster
encyclopedia is not attributed to Wikipedia, so I have assumed that one of
our contributors has been copying from them, rather than vice versa. But
I'd appreciate it if someone else can look into this further before I make
any more changes,
Thanks,
Steve
