It looks like there were copyright problems with the German-language article for which you requested a translation. I've moved this exchange here from Wikpedia:Translation into English; you can decide if there is some other avenue you want to pursue toward creating this article. -- Jmabel | Talk 22:32, Nov 23, 2004 (UTC)

• Article: de:John Sedgwick
• Corresponding English-language article: John Sedgwick
• Worth doing because: German article contains much more info than its English counterpart, a tiny stub.

• Other notes: I just found out the German version is a literal translation taken from [1], therefore it is less a translation but copyright issue... Olaf Fritz 18:02, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  I've added a note about that to de:Wikipedia:Artikel mit noch ungeklärten Urheberrechten. -- Jmabel 21:19, Aug 27, 2004 (UTC)
  See User_talk:Olaf_Fritz for comparison - At least it is partially quoted from Stewart Sifakis, "Who Was Who In The Civil War", 1988. Olaf Fritz 21:30, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  Can anyone clarify the current status of the German-language article? It's been a month and a half, my note is gone from de:Wikipedia:Artikel mit noch ungeklärten Urheberrechten, but I see no discussion of the matter at de:Diskussion:John Sedgwick. -- Jmabel | Talk 08:55, Oct 15, 2004 (UTC) -- I put a note on the German Diskussion page...

The response over on DE was that the article has been reedited, with more information added to it since, so that it is not a translation, but uses that page as a source. The respondant suggested that we Americans look for our own sources and have a nice vote. Mpolo 15:47, Nov 4, 2004 (UTC)

I agree, it should be written from ground up instead of being translated from the German "source", so this request should be moved from translation to article requests Olaf Fritz 22:16, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Hi. You mentioned that Image:Galicia.jpg came from the Romanian wiki. Does that page give any information about its copyright status? Do you know whether it's public domain or fair use or what? Thanks, – Quadell ^{(talk) (help)}[[]] 15:41, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)
