Hi Nat  FWIW, www.accesstoinsight.org seems to allow such word-for-word copying.  In the Uposatha article itself and the article's talk page, I cite the www.accesstoinsight.org stated policy.  Regardless, even if technically legal, I can understand the current article being deleted because such obvious copying violates WP and its readers' expectations, intentions, etc.  Whatever you choose to do, I'm fine with, of course.  Best,
