Talk:Carpathian Large Carnivore Project

The Carpathian Large Carnivore Project was a public project of scientific research performed in cooperation of several national and international organisations. The pure descriptive (text-)content of the webpage of this former project is therefore "public-property", - at least for the use in Wikipedia. On the other hand, it would be a bit difficult to write a totally new text without (or better: leaving out) the main statements and headwords and formulated goals of the programme.

2011-01-07: Nevertheless I changed the wording a bit. Hope that the "copyright-crawling-machine" is pleased now. Poana. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paona (talk • contribs) 10:58, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but there is no such thing as "public property". Text is either explicitly public domain, ineligible for copyright or copyrighted. This particular content is not ineligible and it is not explicitly public domain, so we must by policy presume that it is under copyright.
This article began as a substnatial copy of http://www.clcp.ro/proj/proj-desc.htm, and I'm afraid that your changes have made it an unusable derivative work of that source. For an example of close paraphrasing, consider the following. The source says (formatting omitted):

The project started in 1993 and has ended in summer 2003 and has had numerous organisations involved. Within Romania, the Carpathian Wildlife Foundation (Fundatia Carpati), the National Forest Administration and the Forest Research and Management Institute were the most important players.The projects intention was to include all ecological, economic, and social factors relevant to the large carnivore-human relationship, and the amendment of associated problems. Overall goal of the programme was to establish a community-based conservation of large carnivores and their habitat in a model region in the southern Carpathians through an integrated management approach.

The article, prior to blanking, said:

The project started in 1993 and ended in summer 2003. Numerous national and international organizations were involved in the project. The Carpathian Wildlife Foundation (Fundaţia Carpaţi), the National Forest Administration (Romsilva) and the Forest Research and Management Institute (ICAS) were the most important Romanian participants. The projects intention was to include all ecological, economic, and social factors relevant to the large carnivore-human relationship. Another aim was to correct or reduce problems identified during the project. The overall objective of the program was to establish a community-based conservation of large carnivores and their habitats in a model region in the southern Carpathians in Braşov County through an integrated economic approach. The CLCP has developed activities in four areas: research, conservation and management, rural development and public awareness.

There are other passages that similarly follow too closely.
While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. So that it will not constitute a derivative work, this article should be rewritten in the temporary space that is now linked from the article's front. The essay Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism". We may, unfortunately, have to lose some details. This is an unfortunate side effect of the legal reality that we cannot take their creative work without their permission.
Alternatively, if the material can be verified to be public domain or permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution.

Since the closely paraphrased content has not been revised, it has been removed. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:17, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
